  • New! Glowing Cave Experience

Black Light Tours

Quick Details

Person Ages 7+

An unforgettable experience!

Take the classic mile-long hike through Niagara Cave and experience a section of the cave (approximately 15 minutes) with the lights turned off. We provide black lights for this section of the hour-long tour where you will be surrounded by cave formations that are naturally fluorescent and phosphorescent which means they light up and glow under ultraviolet light! This unforgettable addition to the classic tour is available on select Saturday evenings.
