Three-day Niagara Falls hotel getaway with a Maid of the Mist cruise

Niagara Falls New York Getaway, a rail journey with Amtrak Vacations

Amtrak Vacations sells the Niagara Falls New York Getaway as a short, independent stay at Niagara Falls State Park in upstate New York. The package runs 3 days and 2 nights, with 2 nights of hotel accommodations and an included Maid of the Mist boat ride that takes visitors close to the roaring Falls, a cruise that has operated since 1846. The $129 from-price covers the hotel and the boat ride only; rail travel to and from Niagara Falls is priced and booked separately. No day-by-day itinerary is published for this package, and the operator markets it as a stop to add to a train journey rather than a fully guided tour. It suits independent travelers who want a brief, low-cost visit built around Niagara Falls State Park's lookout points and attractions, without a group schedule to follow.
