I'm not a big fan of heights, but riding in the enclosed car wasn't bad at all. The view of the falls (and the Clifton Hill area) is awesome from the top of the Skywheel. We rode at night, but the downside to that is that some of the lights reflect off the glass walls of the car and make... more

Being enclosed, you feel much safer than on a Ferris Wheel at the county fair. We went on with my 2 year old, 4 year old and 17 year old. Everyone liked it. Tons to see from up there, and just the right amount of time. Buy the Clifton Hill Fun Pass. Then you can do this Skywheel, Ripley's, Mini-Golf,... more

We were staying in a hotel directly across from the Sky Wheel and it's the first attraction we visited in Niagara Falls (after the Falls, of course). We took our ride around 6pm and the weather was a bit overcast, but we still had a great view of the Falls and the surrounding area. The SkyWheel is a bit slow... more

The price is about $10 for what was supposed to be only a 15-minute ride but which lasted 20-25 minutes. The air conditioning and music playing, which you can turn off, made the experience even more enjoyable. My wife and I loved it. We had no trouble taking pictures. You are quite high up given the fact that the enormous... more

I am not afraid of heights but I am slightly claustrophobic, so it was a little tough for me with my boyfriend switching seats asking me to look. The views of the falls at night from the gondola's was great but don't even bother trying to take pictures on it. We have a very nice camera and all we got... more

This was a good ride. A bit scary, but never-the-less nice. The pods are airconditioned and comfortable. Each pod pauses at the top for a view of Niagara Falls - which is quite frightening the first time around. The pods make four or five complete rotations. The cost was $10 CAD per person, but if you pick up a coupon... more

It was not what you would call exciting, but it was a nice comfortable, relaxing way to end an evening! Good view. more

My family did this, and while it was fun I am afraid of hights and became scared. The pods you sit in are air conditioned and roomy. A few are even handicap accessible. There is a panic button (called emergency button) for problems or if you become scared. I admit to pushing it right before the ride ended, because it... more

Incredible view of Niagara and surrounding area - best at night so you can see miles of lights...almost like being in Vegas! Great photo opportunies... Very roomy, Such a smooth ride - with A/C and heating, and quite a long ride too...worth the money... Best of all, go with a loved one, its the perfect spot for a romantic kiss!!! more
