Old Fort Niagara

"Admission is $20 for an adult. I feel like the fee should be like $10-15. It’s a cool place to visit. A lot of history. It’s not super crowded so you won’t have to worry about people’s heads photo bombing your pictures. The drive here was very straight forward. You can spend 3-4 hours here. They do some have demonstrations here. Employees were very nice."

"A Glimpse into History with a Pricey Admission Old Fort Niagara offers a picturesque setting with captivating views of the Niagara River. The historical significance of the fort is evident, and the scenic surroundings are a definite highlight. However, while the views are impressive, the fort's interior might not captivate everyone's interest as much. The exhibits and displays, while informative, may not offer the depth of engagement some visitors seek. One downside is the relatively high admission fee, which may not align with the overall experience provided. It's essential to consider this factor when planning a visit. In summary, Old Fort Niagara offers a pleasant outing for those interested in history and scenic views. However, the admission cost may be a consideration for some visitors."

"This place is absolutely beautiful and full of history. If you are visiting Niagara Falls, you have to visit Fort Niagara! The museum is small but nice as is the gift shop. But what you're really there for is the fort, and it does not disappoint in my opinion! You can go almost anywhere in the fort and see amazing views. There is also a place to buy and eat food in one of the buildings. Also make sure to check out one of the demonstrations. They are fun to watch and the person doing them is very knowledgeable. Much to our surprise, dogs are allowed! We bought our pup through the museum, gift shop, and the entire fort without issue!"

"A well maintained old castle and fort that is super cool to visit if you’re into history. Staff are very knowledgeable and interesting to listen to for stories and interesting facts. Demonstrations were very cool. A very good stop on any vacation."

"Visiting this fort was on our to do list while up in Niagara Falls. After admission there is a museum that also includes a short film. Following the museum we went out into the grounds of the Fort. It’s a good walk and not all the paths are paved so wear proper attire. Every hour on the hour the “Soldiers” fire a musket rifle however, in our case the rifle didn’t go off even after 6 attempts. The “Soldiers” and “civilians” were doing re-enactments while walking through the buildings so it felt immersive. The castle on site is gorgeous, the details inside were pretty amazing, from the stained windows to the stone work throughout are beautiful. The rooms and the chapel were very pretty. Once you finish your tour there is a gift shop on site where you can purchase trinkets, books and t-shirts. If you are a history lover I recommend you go check this great fort out."
