A Busload of Curiosity: Girl Scouts at the Falls
We Love Student Tours at Niagara. At Go Niagara Tours, we’ve had the privilege of showing thousands of students the wonder of Niagara Falls over the years—from high school classes and college freshmen to international visitors seeing the Falls for the first time.
But yesterday?
Yesterday reminded us exactly why we love what we do.Yesterday, we welcomed a busload of Girl Scouts—dozens of bright, curious, excited young women from across Illinois. They were full of questions, full of energy, and full of awe.
From the moment the tour started, they were engaged:
Pointing at the mist rising from the Gorge
Asking about the daredevils who went over the Falls in barrels
And yes—posing for plenty of selfies with ponchos flapping in the wind
They tackled the Cave of the Winds like true explorers, braving the Hurricane Deck and shouting over the roar of the water. Some said it was the most exciting thing they’d ever done. Others just screamed—and then laughed all the way back to the bus.
More Than a Tour—A First Chapter
There’s something magical about being part of a student’s first big adventure. For many of these Girl Scouts, this was:
Their first time out of state
Their first time seeing a natural wonder
Or even their first time on a trip without parents
That matters. That sticks. That’s the kind of memory they’ll talk about for years.
Why We Love Student Groups
Whether it’s:
Girl Scouts learning about natural history and bravery
New students visiting Cornell or UB, getting their first glimpse of Western New York
Or high schoolers making lifelong memories on a year-end trip
…we’re proud to be part of it.
We don’t just offer tours—we help create the moments that inspire curiosity, independence, and wonder.
