点评:As part of our Niagara Falls adventure, my partner and I took in the “Niagara Takes Flight” experience. Located within the Table Rock Centre, this relatively new attraction – opened 29 August 2025 – takes you on an exciting journey through the Niagara area from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie. You explore key landmarks along the way and, as you do, you’re exposed to numerous sensory experiences that completely immerse you in the ride: Wind from the flight; the smell of flowers and other flora; smoke from machinery; and, of course, the gentle mist from the Horseshoe Falls. It’s a fun way to explore Niagara and, perhaps, encourage you to check out some of these sights and sites for yourself!
The total experience takes about half an hour to complete. Most of this time is spent in the pre-show area where you’re shown a video that provides historical context, inclusive of Indigenous perspectives. I found this part of “Niagara Takes Flight” very insightful and informative; it takes the whole experience beyond being simply a fun ride and turns it into an important learning opportunity. After the introductory video, you’re brought into the main theatre and seated for the experience, which lasts a little under ten minutes. Admittedly, that does sound kind of short but, trust me, it’s totally worth it!
Niagara Takes Flight, in many ways, reminded me of another immersive experience my partner and I had in Vancouver: FlyOver Canada. It uses the same concept as Niagara Takes Flight, but jumps throughout the whole country rather than one region. If you happen to be in Vancouver, we recommend checking it out!
The cost for Niagara Takes Flight is $29 for adults and $19 for kids; however, we highly recommend getting a Niagara Parks Pass because this experience – along with a host of others – is included. Indeed, Niagara Falls is a rich and dynamic area – and Niagara Takes Flight captures this in a beautiful, not-to-be-forgotten way.
翻译:作为我们尼亚加拉瀑布之旅的一部分,我和伴侣体验了“尼亚加拉飞翔之旅”。这一景点位于桌岩中心内,于2025年8月29日刚刚对外开放。它带游客开启一段激动人心的旅程,穿越从安大略湖到伊利湖的整个尼亚加拉地区。途中,游客还能参观各类著名地标。你会体验到诸多感官上的享受,完全沉浸在这场“旅程”之中:飞行时的风、花草的芳香、机器运转产生的烟雾,当然还有来自马蹄瀑布的淡淡水雾。这是一种探索尼亚加拉的有趣方式,或许还能激发你亲自去参观这些景点的兴趣呢!
整个体验过程大约需要半小时即可完成。大部分时间都是花费在预演区,在那里你会观看一段介绍历史背景的视频,其中也包含了原住民的视角。我觉得《尼亚加拉翱翔》的这一环节极具启发性且信息丰富;它让整个体验不再仅仅只是一次有趣的游乐项目,而变成了一次重要的学习机会。看完介绍视频后,游客会被带入主剧场就座,正式体验过程持续不到十分钟。诚然,听起来时间确实有点短,但相信我,绝对物有所值!
从很多方面来看,《尼亚加拉飞翔》让我想起了我和伴侣在温哥华体验过的另一项沉浸式项目——“FlyOver Canada”。它采用的原理与《尼亚加拉飞翔》相同,不过游览范围覆盖整个加拿大而非仅一个地区。如果你正好在温哥华,我们强烈推荐你去体验一下!
《尼亚加拉飞翔》的票价为:成人29美元,儿童19美元;不过……我们强烈建议购买尼亚加拉公园通行证,因为此通行证可让您畅享这一体验以及其他众多活动。事实上,尼亚加拉瀑布地区充满活力且魅力无穷;《Niagara Takes Flight》以一种美妙且令人难忘的方式展现了这片地区的独特风采。
