The Whirlpool Aero Car is a suspended cable car that glides over the Niagara Whirlpool, where the river abruptly changes direction and folds back on itself. It is short, old-fashioned, and still thrilling because the water below looks genuinely violent.
This is one of the better paid Niagara Parks stops if you want a view of the gorge rather than another frontal view of the falls. It pairs well with a walk in the Niagara Glen, which sits just downstream.
