Great way to spend the afternoon. Beautiful gardens. Took a sunset cruise from the sightseeing cruise boat at the river.Full review by Tami M

The view of Detroit is pretty cool. The sculpture garden is also a great local feature. Unfortunately, the geese and their poop are annoying and a major drawback to the entire experience.Full review by ONTARIO1981

Not that I am aware of. If you are visiting Windsor during warm season it is a good idea to take a boat tour. I saw two tour operators selling tickets: Diamond Jack and one more (forgot the name). Various options are available.
Taking a day trip on Friday (Feb 15) because my son has no school. He’s been begging to go over to Canada for the day. Any recommendations for a February day trip?

Actually being here in (just across the border) Windsor and not biased by living here from birth, I say there is lots to do. Again his age does determine the length of things to do. Start with the great view from anywhere at the riverfront. you can't miss the main street. Further East along "Riverside Drive" there are many places to park and take a quick look around. Bundle up. Kids like looking at where they came from another side of the river. Plenty of places like Mcd's or Tim Horton's for a warm hot chocolate. If teen also have free wifi. If you head south down "Howard Ave" you can't miss the large mall. "Devonshire" mall good place this time of year even to mall walk and the food court now is sooo much better. I found it a great place to just catch up with my teen. Huge safe place to let them roam a little alone if they want a little space. If younger, you have to check out the toy store across the street, next to Mcd's called "mastermind toys" . Loads of books and traditional and trendy toys. You can google other places just out in the "county". Colasantis is a green house with fun " arcade place" now. games and mini golf (inside). check out "Jack miners" down the road. Google orchards for Feb events. Hope this helps
Are there any hotels that provide a good view of the river and specifically the fireworks during Summerfest? Caesar’s looks like it is sold out for Monday night June 25.
A:
Check out the Best Western Plus in Windsor. We’ve stayed twice. Fantastic river views. Great hotel.

As others have said,, there is only one option to cross the Detroit River- and the international boundary- by public transportation. That is Windsor Transit, the bus service through the Detroit-Windsor tunnel linking the two downtowns. The buses are fully accessible if that is a concern and it is a short trip. Check their website and also check the calendar for professional sporting events in the Dretroit area (NBA, NHL this time of year) as the buses can fill up fast on those days. If you want to do more sight seeing along either side of the river, it may be worth while to rent a car and drive either the bridge or the tunnel yourself.
