A Safari Adventure in Niagara Falls

Reading Time:  3 minutes -

There’s a new ride this year as part of our Clifton Hill Fun Pass, called Safari Adventure! it is the new film featured in our XD Theater, a multi-seat 6D motion simulator ride that provides an intense realistic experience. If you have yet to try out our XD Theater, it combines modern FX technology that includes fully immersive stereoscopic imaging, realistic motion that can vary from gentle murmurs to intense trembles, plus intense wind and lighting effects.

The Safari Adventure film, which is located inside the Great Canadian Midway, takes the viewer on an incredible life-like journey through the wilderness on this edge of your seat Safari Adventure. Do up your seatbelt to experience a ride like no other, or if you wish for the non-motion version without losing the 3D effect, than don’t bother to do up your seatbelt and the seats will not move. Keep the glasses on though!

Here is a really quick demonstration of what you can expect from the XD Ride Theater:

This ride is individually priced at $6.99+tax for Adults and $4.99+tax for Children, or you can purchase it as part of the Clifton Hill Fun Pass, which combines the XD Theatre along with 4 other family fun attractions: the Niagara SkyWheel, Movieland Wax MuseumGhostblasters Dark Ride and  Galaxy Golf or Dinosaur Adventure Golf (*open seasonally). You will also receive some bonus tokens with your Fun Pass to play any game of your choosing inside the Great Canadian Midway. If you still can’t get enough of the Safari Adventure 6D Ride, then you will love another game provided in the Great Canadian Midway from the same manufacturers of the film — called “Typhoon”! It’s a 2-seater experience to remember with up to 2G’s of acceleration and 400 movements!
