    I love💓 This Speedway🏎️, I'm a 10 year old girl👧🏻 and my dad 👦🏻took me here I think it was really fun🎉, I love💗 the track. In the 5 minutes you can drive🚗 I went 4 times but If you👈🏻 are going faster⏩ you could probably go 5 times if you wanted👍🏻. There are lots of cars🚗 and you only go for 5 minutes⏳ so if you're in the back of the line-- you won't have to wait🕐 for very long. I thought🧠 it was not too hard to drive🚘.Keep in mind🧠 that you👈🏻 do have to be 58"(147cm) to be a driver🚗so if you're under⬇️ that you can only be a passenger👧🏻 but that is still fun👍🏻🥳It does not cost a fortune💰and its very affordable🪙so it won't be a big money💸waster🚮Thank you for reading📖my review and I think🧠 that this would be really fun🎉 for everyone👨‍👩‍👧‍👦! I rate this speedway 5 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Have a great☀️day!~!!!

    Amazing experience. When in Niagara do not miss this activity. Their surely is a long wait but it is all worth it when you sit in the kart. The track is well designed and has the moments where you can enjoy the drive and as well be adventurous. For approx $15 you get 4 laps of the circuit which is totally worth it. Recommended? Totally Yes

    Love this track! The hills at the top are brilliant! I made it a goal to one day come back and ride in a wedding dress and I did! Got married last Thursday and wore my wedding dress for the karts!

    The 5 minutes of driving you get is fun I'll admit. It's a cool track to drive that you can only get 2 laps out of. For $12 it's better to save your money. This was my experience: I spent $12, waited in line for about 50 minutes, got into the kart and waited for the other group to finish for 5 minutes and drove for a little less than 5 minutes because I was in the last lane. It was a regret.

    It was a very fun experience with this go-kart place and a very reasonable price for tickets compared to other attractions in Niagara falls. You have to stand in a queue to purchase tickets(no online tickets available) and finally to get to the ride. They provide helmets for your safety with your right size. Staff is really helpful and makes sure of your safety. I saw a person lose his mobile during the ride and staff has found it from his go-kart after the ride finished. Kids friendly ride. We had tried a couple times and each time it was a fun experience.

    I was drawn to this place because of the 2-story track but after racing on it I’m not that impressed. The staff were helpful and it was quick turn around to get on the track but I need speed. I’ve raced on tracks that got 45 mph

    The lines were exceptionally long on a Saturday night, which made us try Sunday morning instead. We arrived at 10am (opening) and there was already a short line but nothing to be concerned with. We rode 2x in a row very quickly. Kids (aged 10 to 17) loved it and definitely want to return.

    Incredible experience in Go Carting due to the track, location and the smooth cars. You get 3 rounds which would be completed in 15-20 minutes and the maximum speed is about 20 km/hr which is safe and convenient. Also the brakes are great and customer service which even helps you by taking your pictures.

    Niagara Speedway was incredibly fun. this is the first time I had been to a go cart track like this and it was much more fun than I thought it would be. We also spent a lot more time on the track than I was expecting.

    Worth the price. Including tax, this 15$ ride is thrilling and fun. It included five laps and the wait time is pretty short. So if your in the area, you should check it out. This became my 2nd favourite thing in Niagara falls.

    Worth every penny. My son (being a Mario Kart fanatic) had an amazing time. My daughter did too. So glad I took them on the track. What makes this track so amazing is the design and location. Under the perfect weather conditions, this track is in the perfect location and makes Clifton Hill look gorgeous. The staff were super organized and did an amazing job keeping the crowd moving cautiously under Covid protocols. Amazing job to all. Oh yeah! The price was super affordable. Can't wait to come back for round two!

    I loved this so much. This was probably the best part of the whole Niagara trip. Worth every penny. I went 3-4 times on this ride, it was so much fun. The prices were a bit in the high end, but i wasn't going to do it everyday. So had to enjoy it as much as possible. I just wish they increased the speed of the cars a bit, it would make it even more fun. The track length was good too. Definitely worth trying out.

    It’s tall, it’s fast, it roars with excitement! The Speedway is a world-class attraction that combines the adrenaline inducing thrill of kart racing with the remarkable experience of a roller coaster ride. The course is spread out over four acres with over 2000 linear feet of concrete racing surface, running through a four-story helical spiral followed by a two tiered coaster style ramp that runs into another spiral. Though riders may feel like they are flying over a cliff at certain points during the ride, extensive safety features were built into the Speedway attraction.

    A great activity for all ages! The track is super cool and it’s priced well for a nice, fun adventure. Of course do not expect it’s your Tokyo drift but there’s ample of turns and straights to get ahead of your opponents. Thanks Jason and Ramneet for assisting us in getting the right package!

  • 1/5 Ankit S. 10 months ago on Google
    What a terrible experience just 5 minutes ago. My son is 10 and he’s 59” after wearing shoes. The cashier didn’t let him enter because he thinks my son had to be the driver because his height is more than 58” after wearing his shoes, so he had to either drive the cart or he has to leave. I was ready to pay for the driver’s ticket and let my son ride as a passenger but the cashier was too rude to let him go as a passenger. My son was too scared and really wanted to go cart but the cashier just didn’t care. He said I didn’t make the rules, so it’s up to you, you can let your son drive or leave. I said he’s cared and he said he don’t care.

    Daughter went 3 times. Enjoyed it twice. But the third time she kept being hit by someone a few times yet they didn't get kicked out. It also stopped the race several times so they could turn people the roght way round. All in all she had a good time. Under $15 for 5 mins. Way better than any Kart I have done across canada thus far.

    I visited the Niagara Falls area in Late August/Early September 2022. I could see the Niagara Speedway from my hotel room and knew we had to give it a try. We visited early morning there was no line and no wait. However, once we were done with our session a line was beginning to form. You can purchase your tickets via cash or card. You’re then directed to get a helmet. The helmets come in various sizes. One thing I noticed when we were done with the helmets, they were being sanitized in which I greatly appreciated. The staff was really friendly and helpful especially since I was having trouble fastening my helmet. Once you have your gear you get a car and buckle up. I’m 5”0 and I must say driving the go karts was difficult as I could not fully reach the petals, being strapped in I also couldn’t slouch down. Adjustable seats may be beneficial. There were some drivers who would constantly bump other drivers including myself which was really annoying. The track was great we may have done a total of 4-5 laps. This is no ordinary flat level track; it goes in loops uphill and leads you down this massive hill which feels like a roller coaster. This maybe one of the best go karts tracks I’ve visited. This activity is great for families, couples, even solo fun. If you’re in the Clifton Falls area I definitely recommend you give this a try.

    Went here while visiting Niagara on the Ontario side. I had recently visited the New York side so wanted to be able to compare the both. This place was pretty cool kind of the like the speedway back in Michigan. I had a good time even though I went by myself for the ride. There was for some people that were driving reckless and making it a little harder to enjoy but when ever the staff noticed they would say something. Looks like they are now temporarily closed and I hope its only due to the weather.

    It was my sister's and my first time trying a Go Karting experience, and we loved it! The staff here are so helpful and encouraging. My sister was a little nervous, but they reassured her that she would be fine and would have a blast. The line was very long. There were many tourists present that day since it was a long weekend. Try to go on a weekday if you can, to avoid the lineup. The track itself was so much fun. The first drop is a little nerve-wracking if you're scared of heights, but don't worry, your wheels stay glued to the floor. You won't fly off! We got to do three laps in the time we had. I actually thought it would only be 1, so I was pleasantly surprised we had time to do multiple laps. Pricing was fair for a tourist attraction. You can save a dollar if you find the coupon from their website. Highly recommend this attraction with a loved one or friend!

    I had a thrilling and exhilarating time at Niagara Speedway, the largest elevated go-cart track facility in North America. It was like a combination of go-cart racing and roller coaster riding, with a four story spiral, two tiered ramp, and hairpin turns. The go-carts were fast and powerful, with 9HP engines and a maximum speed of 32 km/h. The track was long and challenging, with over 2000 linear feet of concrete racing surface. The staff were friendly and professional, and the safety features were well-designed. The admission was $14 for the driver and an additional $4 for the passenger. It was a great way to enjoy the adrenaline rush of kart racing with a twist. If you are looking for a fun and unique attraction in Niagara Falls, I highly recommend Niagara Speedway!

    The ride is fun and well worth the price compared to some other activities in the area. The kids had a blast going around the track. There wasn't a long wait when we arrived and we were able to get right on and cruise.

    Took the kids and my cousin’s son there for some fun. Long line up, but they seemed to have a blast and kept talking about it, so it must have been worth the wait. Lol.
