Tours4Fun Announces “Maid of the Mist” Tours in the Boat Ride’s Finale Month - October 2010

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Los Angeles based online tour provider - Tours4Fun recently launched their brand-new and cost effective tour packages to Niagara Falls that mainly highlight one of the most popular boat rides and a prominent tourist attraction – ‘Maid of the Mist’. “As October is the finale month of this fabulous boat ride, we wanted to offer one last chance to our travelers to experience the magnificence of Niagara Falls by boarding the famous boat. The last day to enjoy this unique journey to the falls is October 24^th, so we have designed exciting tour packages that start just at $74, for all those enthusiasts who can’t wait till April 2011 to get soaked in the beauty of the falls”, according to Jason Hong, Product Development Manager at Tours4Fun.

‘Maid of The Mist’, the iconic boat ride that draws people from far and wide to experience Niagara Falls, is truly the only journey that allows one to be up-close to the falls. It is operational between April and November, because Ontario Hydro controls the water level at the falls to ensure power generation throughout the winter. The first Maid of the Mist was launched in 1846, but was closed shortly thereafter because tourists preferred the brand-new suspension bridge that was built between the U.S. and Canadian sides of the falls. By popular demand, it took no time for the boat ride to spring back to operation and today, it takes the Niagara Falls visitors on a memorable journey leaving them in awe of the majestic falls.

‘Maid of the Mist’ boat ride is also famous for offering a romantic element to a vacation with your loved one. The bond between ‘Maid of The Mist’ and romance goes long back. After the Civil War, Niagara Falls became an attractive destination amongst newlywed couples who used to enjoy the boat ride on their honeymoon. It was the place for couples to get away and be isolated from the world. After World War I, several motels sprung up near the falls which allowed the couples to take their car along with them for a vacation. It still is one of the most popular honeymoon destinations. The most recent evidence showcasing the connection between “Maid of the Mist” and romance was Jim and Pam’s wedding in America’s favorite mockumentary television series “The Office”. It definitely has set a new benchmark of exchanging vows for all the to-be married couples in the presence of mesmerizing Niagara Falls, whose beauty alone is sufficient to make a wedding ceremony look grand.

In addition to their exciting Niagara Falls Tours and Maid of the Mist Tours which have been exclusively designed to celebrate the finale month of the Maid of the Mist boat ride, Tours4Fun also offers an option of viewing the falls from the American side via its East Coast Tour packages. Couples who would be traveling to Niagara Falls in September and October should also explore Tours4Fun’s Wine & Dine Tour at Niagara Falls that includes a pleasant lunch and an exclusive tour of the charming wineries located in the surrounding area. As the Wine & Dine tour is in the afternoon, it will be an enjoyable outing for couples post the Maid of the Mist experience in the morning.
