In the late 1800s and early 1900s, Niagara Falls was a fashionable city. Today the city is often referred to as a slum, despite its namesake - a natural wonder bringing 9-million visitors to the area each year.
I will take you on a walking tour of the nitty-gritty-city, giving you a real-life look at places that tourists don't normally dare to go.
We will discuss how it all came to be and ideas for future rebirth. We will end with lunch at a locally owned eatery.
The walk will last between 2-and 3-hours, depending on the group.
Please be prepared by wearing comfortable walking shoes and casual clothes. Also bring drinking water.
Canadian-born American, I spend my time hopping back and forth between those two great countries. I really enjoy meeting people from around the world and introducing them to the area by taking them somewhat off of the beaten path. I absolutely love the Ontario wine region and spend as much time as I can just breathing in the air there. It's rejuvenating. I also spend a lot of time in Niagara Falls, NY and working on projects and collaborations to improve what was once a top notch tourist destination but has been fighting with itself for over 50-years. I believe so strongly that this city will rise from the ashes through the initiatives of individuals and I am happy to share my perspectives with visitors. In my free time, I enjoy rehabbing old stuff and making "junk" beautiful. I am so grateful for the opportunity to offer experiences to visitors through Vayable! It affords me the chance to share my excitement and love of these area with others while living on purpose and keeps me from punching a clock. :) Full profile ⋅ Leave a Review
