Stepping onto Clifton Hill, you can’t help but notice the wide-array of haunted houses — the Haunted House, Dracula’s Castle and the House of Frankenstein all align the street, with Screamers and Nightmares Fear Factory just around the corner on Victoria Avenue — which got me thinking about a Niagara Falls Halloween contest….


Just a short drive from the Falls is Stevensville — the home of the family-friendly and very popular Safari Niagara zoo and amphitheatre. On Saturday, October 12th, 2013 they will be holding the Inaugural “Boo at the Zoo” event. It’s their first ever Halloween event, held rain or shine from 10:00am – 4:00pm. Trick-or-treat around the zoo, participate in games, activities, costume contests and more! Children 12 and under are FREE when they are dressed in costume and adults are $15+tax. Donations of non-perishable food items are appreciated in support of Fort Erie COPE.

Schedule of Events:
10:00am: Safari Niagara opens
10:15am: Halloween Amphitheatre Activities Begin
11:00am: Costume Contest (ages 0-5) in Amphitheatre
11:30am: Costume Contest (ages 6-12) in Amphitheatre
12:15pm – 12:45pm: Animal Presentation at Zooniversity

4:00pm: Safari Niagara Closes
In addition, there will be over 35 local businesses and organizations set up offering trick-or-treating throughout the park for the little ones — and adults! 😉

This year, our Niagara Falls Halloween contest is 2 admissions to the Safari Niagara “Boo at the Zoo” event on Saturday, October 12th, 2013 (remember children 12 and under are free in costume…so this covers Mom and Dad!) AND 3 Clifton Hill Fun Passes! You may use the Clifton Hill Fun Passes at any time…but since our attractions are open super late on Saturday’s you may choose to do it all in one day — no problem!

All you have to do is “like” and “share” this post. A winner will be selected at random on Thursday, October 10th, 2013. All the tickets will be waiting for you upon your arrival at Safari Niagara on Saturday, October 12th, 2013.
Good luck and get your costume ready!!

Safari Niagara: Did it withstand the interest of my 2 year old?

1 Comment
Reading Time:  6 minutes -

I’m always saying how Safari Niagara is a great Niagara attraction, but how does it stack up from the true critic out there — My two year old son, Kaidyn? This is a child with a very little attention span and prone to temper tantrums when he gets bored. This isn’t a character flaw, this is just a typical two year old. I’m always looking for something new to do with him to keep him occupied and I look for attractions in Niagara Falls that I will enjoy as well. I take him to Clifton Hill religiously, as that’s a no brainer taking him into the Great Canadian Midway with arcade games for his age (little race cars, Sesame Street rides and skeeball, etc.) and lights and sounds to sustain his interest. He loves doing the attractions on the Clifton Hill Fun Pass  and we do it all the time. The Dinosaur Adventure Golf is a huge hit for my little guy especially! I can’t say enough about my love for Clifton Hill, from it’s attractions and family-friendly restaurants like Boston Pizza.
 *Kaidyn at Dinosaur Adventure Golf*
This time, I decided to take him to Safari Niagara for something a little different for my son, the animal lover. Safari Niagara is only a 10 minute drive from Niagara Falls in Stevensville at 2821 Stevensville Road — so why not? I decided to give it a go!
Firstly, the parking lot is vast so you never have to worry about finding a spot there. They had four cashiers lined up and even though it was a busy Friday afternoon (we arrived at 1:30pm), we didn’t have to wait long to get in the park. Children 3 and under are free and Adults from June 1st, 2013 – Sept 2nd, 2013 are $26.95, Children ages 4-12 and Seniors 65+ are $22.95 + applicable taxes. This is pricer than previous years, however this price reflects all the features within Safari Niagara at no added cost. So with that price, it included unlimited access of the Sky Quest Rope Course, Sky Tykes, Bungee and Safari Rides and the Splash Pad whereas in previous years that wasn’t offered. We were also offered access to the “Gator Express Tram” for free which takes you from one end of the park to the other in ease so that you don’t need to walk if your legs get tired or if you have mobility issues. Stroller and wagons are welcome aboard. I personally chose to walk around with Kaidyn in the stroller, but it’s certainly worth the ride on the tram as it took a few hours by foot to see everything that Safari Niagara had to offer. I would have to say that unlike the Toronto Zoo, Safari Niagara is definitely more toddler friendly in that its smaller and he was able to go on all the rides at his height and hulk weight of 38 pounds haha.
 *My attempt at taking a photo of ourselves entering the park…so far all smiles!*
As soon as you enter the park, you walk right into their gift store. This place was loaded with plush zoo animals, souvenir clothing, keychains and hats, puzzles and candy galore. It’s the North Pole to probably most toddlers, but Kaidyn paid no attention and kept his eyes straight forward at the massive sculpture that greets you as you exit the gift shop and into the world of the animals! Our day has begun…

Let me start off by saying that Safari Niagara wastes no time getting right to grabbing your attention! Bright colored flamingos, a petting zoo called “Papa Steve’s Family Farm”, the Splash Pad, a concessions stand and the SkyQuest ride all greet you as you round the first corner. Kaidyn is already in awe and we haven’t even seen one-fifth of the park yet. I knew the Splash Pad wasn’t going to be part of the plan and he doesn’t even like having his hair washed in the tub, so that wouldn’t fly, but the SkyQuest got his attention. I’ve never seen anything like it before. You navigate through a stimulating obstacle course 30 feet in the air using only ropes and beams. Anyone can participate, but children under 48″ tall must be accompanied by a chaperone. It was like a giant playground to him and he wanted to give it a go…then I took him closer. Forget it! He chickened out and we instead spent 15 minutes watching all the other kids enjoy themselves.

At this point, I’m hungry and Kaidyn was due to eat as well so I opted to give the concessions stand a try. They had quite a lot to offer from fries and pretzels to pizza and burgers…and of course cold ice cream treats! Since my two-year old is a picky eater I got him some fries and a salad (healthy option!) for myself and a coffee to satisfy my caffeine fix. I’m assuming the fries were a hit since he kept rubbing his tummy and saying “mmmm” so all-in-all two thumbs up for a quick lunch stop!

So we began our journey visiting the animals at Safari Niagara and we took in hundreds of different species of animals, bird and reptile species. Ferocious felines, playful primates, huge hippos and giraffes were all popular exhibits for my little guy and vending machines are located sporatically in areas with specific food for each animal in which kids can get close to them and interact with them by feeding them. I would have to say of all the animals we visited, Kaidyn’s favourite was….the chickens lol. I personally loved the new White Lions exhibit — gorgeous creatures! Here are some photos that I took:






After viewing all the animals, I took Kaidyn to the massive playground they have there. This was by far, Kaidyn’s favorite part of Safari Niagara. He loved the slides…and many to choose from. They also had a huge giant sandbox complete with toys for the kids to play around in. We actually spent most of the day here. It’s paradise for toddlers and small children. I was able to sit back and relax while he played with the others kids. Tears were shed when it was dinnertime and I called an end to our time here. All in all? We had an excellent time and judging by the temper tantrum having to leave Safari Niagara and all the smiles had during our visit here, Kaidyn gave it two thumbs up! Way to go Safari Niagara!!

The Ultimate Vacation Giveaway to Niagara Falls!

4 Comments
Reading Time:  5 minutes -

When visiting Niagara Falls on vacation, Charles Dickens once remarked “It would be harder for man to stand nearer to God than he does here”. Voted #1 by the National Geographic in the “Top 10 Things To Do in Ontario”, it is without a doubt the prime destination to travel to and cross off your bucket list. It is massive with the combination of three waterfalls, the “American Falls” at 183 feet and a crest of 830 feet, the “Horseshoe Falls” at 173 feet and a crest of 2200 feet and the “Bridal Veil Falls” at 181 feet with a crest of 56 feet. It is worth a vacation to Niagara Falls just to see how beautiful it is in person, but if you get tired of watching the Falls, there is so much more natural beauty and history to view. Head down to Whirlpool Park and wander around the gorge for starters and ride the Whirlpool Areo Car for a totally different appreciation of nature. Or visit Fort George for a history lesson and photos within the headquarters of the Britsh Army during the war of 1812!
The “Street of Fun by the Falls”!
Of course, a vacation to Niagara Falls wouldn’t be complete without a visit to one of the most famous streets going, Clifton Hill! Like a bullseye, you will instantly recognize Clifton Hill by the massive 175 foot structure in the sky, the Niagara Skywheel. It overlooks the Niagara horizon and has been a staple in photos since its opening in 2006. This is a ‘must’ on your visit to Niagara Falls, along with a variety of other attractions catered to all ages — toddlers to seniors! The Clifton Hill Fun Pass is just the package to purchase when ready to take on the excitement on Clifton Hill. The Niagara Skywheel, the all-new Dinosaur Adventure Golf or Galaxy Golf, Movieland Wax Museum of the Stars, Ghostblasters Dark Ride, a six-dimensional thrill ride called the XD Ride Theatre and 5 tokens as an added bonus to try your luck at any one of the over 300 Midway games in the Great Canadian Midway! This Niagara Falls attraction package is completely inexpensive at only $25.95+tax for Adults and $19.95+tax for Children.

Besides the attractions, let’s talk about the dining. Clifton Hill itself only takes perhaps 10 minutes to walk from the base of the street at the Niagara Parkway (River Road), to the top of the street at Victoria Avenue, in which it then turns into Centre Street — and seconds away from the Greg Frewin Theatre. Options are vast within that 10 minute walk for something to eat, from Hot Dogs, Beavertails and ice cream stands, to Wendy’s, Tim Horton’s and Burger King, and restaurants such as Kelsey’s and Boston Pizza. This Boston Pizza in particular is geared to families and the theme of Clifton Hill’s “Street of Fun by the Falls” with it’s one-of-a-kind setting inside all the lights, sounds and gaming action of the Great Canadian Midway entertainment complex. The dining area is massive and contains two bars to cater to the convenience of faster service and to accomodate the diners that choose to eat their meals next to Strike Rock N Bowl , Boston Pizza’s only 10 pin, 14 lane full bowling alley within this Niagara Falls restaurant.

Don’t forget to stick around after hours, because your vacation doesn’t end at 5:00! Clifton Hill doesn’t roll up its carpet until super late (especially in the Summer months!), with most attractions opening at 9:00 am and not closing until 1:00-2:00 am. Experience different views from the Niagara Skywheel, or even with both feet on the ground when you take in all the amazing glitzy lights, volcano “eruptions” from Dinosaur Adventure Golf and laser shows from within some of Niagara’s best nightclubs that align the street, like Rumour’s Nightclub.
http://youtu.be/2a9OouqlUbE
You are guaranteed to have so much fun on your vacation you won’t want to go home…so why leave? Relax and have a few drinks at Rumour’s Nightclub knowing that just steps away is the Clifton Hill Niagara Falls Hotel. You can’t beat the location! This Niagara Falls Hotel is right in the heart of the tourism district on Clifton Hill. Just outside the doors is the Niagara Skywheel and attached to the hotel is Kelsey’s Clifton Hill — you don’t even need to step foot outside for inexpensive, family dining! Just one block to the Niagara Falls, it’s easy and convenient to get from one major attraction to the next. The room rates beat top competitors and include access to its tropical indoor swimming pool and free breakfast onsite at the Poolside Cafe. Take advantage of the many package deals to choose from like top notch savings of up to 70% in the Build-A-Package campaign or the Niagara Falls Family Fun Package.

There is an abundance of things to do in Niagara Falls on your vacation, all central to your stay at the Clifton Hill Niagara Falls Hotel, but if you choose to leave this area for the day, head to the gorgeous setting of Niagara-on-the-Lake and visit any number of their wineries for a tasting and tour, which coincedentally is also offered as part of a package within your hotel stay at this Comfort Inn. Click here for details.
On the outskirts of Niagara Falls is the home of Safari Niagara in Stevensville, just a 10 minute drive away. Its the ultimate summer fun destination for people of all ages and abilities. The park is completely interactive with educational animal presentations, guided tours, animal feedings and a petting farm. Admission is all-inclusive*, providing unlimited use of the ropes course, bungee, safari rides, splash pad, fishing, kite flying, paddle boats and more. New attractions include White Lions, a White Rhinoceros Exhibit, an Interactive Reptile Exhibit and a Free Flight Budgie Experience.  Safari Niagara’s Amphitheatre offers an annual summer concert series featuring popular international recording artists.

Without a doubt, Niagara Falls is the ultimate fun vacation, and not just for honeymooners! The best part? We want to give you a chance to try it out! Here is your chance to win:
*A two night stay at the Comfort Inn Clifton Hill which includes: two night’s accomodation, deluxe breakfast each morning, use of its indoor pool and giant whirlpool, complimentary on-site parking.

There are four white lions, two males and two females. The white lions range from 5 to 7 months old and were captive born from a facility in South Africa, which they will now be a permanent fixture at Safari Niagara.
White lions are extremely rare and have not been seen in the wild in more than 15 years. These are Niagara Falls’ first and ONLY lions. They reign from the Timbavati region of South Africa. Their white disposition is the result of a recessive gene known as a color inhibitor specific to their native region.
“We are committed to the conservation of endangered lions. We strive to educate our guests on the importance of conservation, as it is key to the survival of many species” said General Manager Tim Tykolis.
In addition to the lions, there are many more wide variety of animals from Elks and Flamingos to Tigers and Giraffes! Click here to see an alphabetical list of animals featured.

Safari Niagara is currently holding a naming contest for the four lions on their Facebook page @ www.facebook.com/SafariNiagara and directly at Safari Niagara until June 9th, 2013. The winners will be presented with 2-day passes to the park! Season memberships are available for purchase at the park admissions booth or by calling 905-382-9669.
