Buy falls tickets online — but not from the first site you see.
Online, but comparison shop like you mean it. The official attraction site usually has a “book now” price that’s fine. But third-party resellers (Viator, GetYourGuide, etc.) sometimes undercut it by a few bucks — or tack on service fees that make it pricier. On-site ticket booths add a convenience fee for the privilege of standing in line. You lose about 30 minutes and might pay 10% more. Dynamic pricing is real: weekends and peak hours cost more, so book a morning slot on a Tuesday if you can. Hidden fees are almost always a “booking fee” or “processing fee” that appears at checkout. Compare total with fees, not list price. Most falls attractions let you skip the line with a pre-purchased ticket. Do that. The view is the same whether you bought it online or at the window.
This is one of those cases where five minutes of clicking saves you twenty bucks and an hour of standing.
