- What Will You Do

We start with an individual training at the Lock 3 Museum and allow each participant to get comfortable before we start our tour. We then travel along the canal on a dedicated and peaceful path, where we learn about the 3 previous canals and why they got built in the first place.

We observe the Glendale Bridge, learn how it works and is operated. We keep gliding to the main control center and find ourselves at the bottom of the Niagara Escarpment.

We climb the escarpment and take a break to discover the Twin/Flight Locks and hear some impressive data about this Welland Canal, how the boats are lifted in how much time it takes to do so.

We travel to Lock 5 and 6, turn back and glide along all the way back to the museum, letting each guest enjoy the Segway ride.

We travel around the Museum and visit the Fallen Workers Memorial, dedicated to the 137 people who lost their lives building this 4th Canal.
