Watkins Glen State Park - Glen Creek has carved a dramatic gorge into the Watkins Glen hillside, resulting in a large, cavern-like network of rock formations. Within two miles, the glen’s stream descends 400 feet past 200-foot cliffs, generating 19 waterfalls along its course. The gorge path winds over and under waterfalls and through the spray of Cavern Cascade.

Special Notes:

  1. We charge $15/person for bus entry permit and parking of Watkins Glen State Park.

Niagara Falls - In order to ensure a better experience for guests, it is guaranteed that guests can watch the fireworks show at the waterfall on that day (except that there is no fireworks show on that day).

Get closer to America’s Oldest State Park at Niagara Falls State Park! Enjoy some awe-inspiring sceneries and adventure-packed experience with us! Niagara Falls is actually not one waterfall, but three. The Niagara River flows down from Lake Erie and is divided by Goat Island. There, part of it flows to the horseshoe-shaped Canadian Falls (aptly named Horseshoe Falls), and the rest flows to the American Falls. At the American falls, the river is also split by a second small island, Luna Island, creating the third, small waterfall known as Bridal Veil Falls.

A worthwhile experience primarily if you need help navigating where to go and what to do - Throughout this 3 day trip [that is about to conclude as of now], I’d like to say this is a good choice for you especially if you don’t know your way around Canada and haven’t been there before or want people that are willing to be patient for you. The trip consists of what are more akin to little events that happen throughout the day to make sure you’re able to the maximum amount of time and experience for what you’re expecting and paid for. It can be tiring for someone who’s not used to going out much but I can attest to that by saying that on my trip; it was primarily consisting of people in the higher age range. I was rather surprised by the amount of older people but it also made the entire experience more homely because it didn’t just feel like stuffy tourists shoving people around but instead people who are here to actually enjoy their time. I met a few couples there that were very helpful and made nice talks with [which my Grandmother happily got along with as well]. I boat rides were probably my favorite as I enjoy a good view: the one close to Niagara [my favorite] was very wet! But totally worth the view, same can be said for the Skylon tower which was a nice lunch experience [that rotates 360] of Niagara from above. If you worry about language it’s not that big of an issue either. The guide speaks in both Mandarin Chinese and English and spoke both throughout the entire journey which was helpful as I’m more proficient in English than my Mandarin. My guide, Daniel, was very helpful and made sure no one was left behind as we went from location to location and helped distribute/manage all the tickets, restaurant bookings, and hotel bookings that all everyone really needed to do was just follow him and enjoy their time before moving on to the next location. The bus driver, whose name I sadly don’t know, was very kind with helping out the luggage when late at night for the hotel, everyone was tired. I’m surprised he’s even able to drive so well for so long as I’ve fallen asleep throughout them so easily yet he hasn’t gotten a wink of rest in those times. If you ask me if I’d come again, I’d say yes. A friendly environment that’s especially helpful if you’re just starting out and want a well planned trip without having to worry about anything other than paying money. I’d especially recommend if you’re Chinese that speaks Mandarin and don’t feel comfortable crossing the border and entering an environment you’re not comfortable with speaking English in—this is probably perfect for you.

Excellent - I would like to commend our bus driver Janna . She’s the best and made sure we reached our destination safe. When taken us back she dropped us in a safe lighted place . I can only say good words for her . This made our 3 day tour the best of all the tours we had in the past. Kudos to Janna!

A pleasant respite from city life - I love the places that we went to. I have been to Niagara twice before: they only included Maid of the Mist ride and topside viewing of the Horseshoe Fall. This time was a total experience, with side trips to and from Niagara Falls, which included Watkins Glen, Ripley's Aquarium, Thousand Islands Cruise, and a few other interesting places. Also, lunch at Skylon Tower and dinner at Seafood restaurant. There was confusion in the word "optional" in the list of things to do. We assumed it meant that we can choose not to join the activity, but Take Tours meant the admission price is not included in our payment and that we have to shell out a substantial amount of cash (credit card not accepted) during the trip. We had to take part in the entire list of activities or you have to stay in the bus (?????). We were not prepared for this as it was almost as much as the initial amount that we paid. Janna was an excellent driver, very safe and very efficient. Jason handled everything wonderfully (except that there was more fast food stops that I can handle; lol).Anyway, we're searching for our next trip and we will definitely consider using Jupiter Legend again. Overall, the trip was very enjoyable, except for the long bus rides between locations.

Would NOT recommend if you are NOT chinese - Beautiful places to visit, BUT the tour guide needs to learn about them. A bus driver was excellent. 3 of 4 lunches/dinners were in chinese restaurants. I wish we could try other canadian food as well. One of the hotels was cheap and not clean :( Next time we will try another company.
