Lockport Cave and Underground Boat Ride

4.5

About this business

Located along the Lockport section of the Erie Canal, this amazing underground boat ride is unique. Using a custom-built flat-bottom boat, visitors go on a half-mile trip through a man-made hydraulic raceway cut out of solid rock, the work of 19th-century genius Birdsill Holly— the man who gave the world the fire hydrant and zoned steam heat. Accompanied by a guide and trained operators, the 1 1/4-hour ride is thrilling and perfectly safe.

I loved this tour! I have been on it two other times, but this was the best by far. Mark was enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable. And--he walks backward like a real pro! Mark, I'm so sorry we couldn't wait to talk with you after the tour. I wanted to, but we would have been late meeting my sister in Buffalo. I friended you on Facebook. Keep up the fine work! I will request you the next time I come. 

Business response:

Great to hear you enjoyed your visit, Carol! We will pass your kind words on to Mark :)

Loved this historical tour. Our tour guide Ken was absolutely amazing. I learned a lot from him. For those who don't know, this is a man-made cave used for hydraulic power. It's not a natural-made cave. But it's still a beautiful site to check out. 

Business response:

Great to hear you enjoyed your visit, Amber!
