Since the beginning of spring, many of Buffalo’s beloved attractions have been forced to remain closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Thankfully, now that the weather is warming up and New York State remains tough as a whole, we find ourselves being able to jump back into some of our go-to activities and seasonal adventures. Officially open for tours as of June 6th, see what it’s like to get out on the water with the city’s Buffalo River History Tours.

With more miles of Lake Erie’s shoreline than we’ll ever know what to do with, there are so many great ways to get out on the water here in Buffalo, but one of our absolute favorites is to explore our city’s past with the Buffalo River History Tours.
