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.

Went with my 9-year-old nephew. We both really enjoyed this and it wasn't very expensive! Our tour guide, Paige, was absolutely fantastic. Interesting information, witty, and just a wonderful person overall. Highly recommended.

Definitely recommend this tour! Our guide, Madeline, did an awesome job. She knew so many cool facts and had some fantastic one liners! We had a group of 13 ranging from infant to elder and we all really enjoyed learning and laughing together. My five year old said, “that was my first tour and I loved it!” Thank you, Madeline, for helping make it a memorable trip and for sharing your knowledge with us, you kept us laughing and learning so much.
