While it is exciting to get as close to the horse shoe falls as possible it was a big disappointment when the boat did not stop even for a minute near the horseshoe. No sooner had we reached close to the falls the captain did a quick turn around and we were headed back in no time. I saw all the 'Maid of Mist' boats cruising for a long time near the horse shoe falls and this is what makes the trip worth it. The waiting time to get into the boat was just about 5 minutes when I went two days ago. The boat people should cruise for at least a few minutes near the horseshoe falls to allow us to savor and experience the falls properly. Considering that the ticket prices are quite steep I felt cheated and that it was not worth the money.
