You will actually ride through the Soo Locks and cruise alongside giant lake and ocean ships. Inside the Soo Locks your boat will ride the water as it is raised 21' straight up, to the level of Lake Superior. Witness the large freighters up close! Plan your trip soon! | I Love Sault Ste.

Here's a quick video of one of the Famous Soo Locks Boat Tours boats passing by the Sam Laud as they arrived in town earlier today... You can really get an idea of how close you get to the ships watching this... It's shaky sadly... something wasn't tight enough on my tripod so any little movement and it looks like the earth is shaking lol Anyway it's a short vid and I just thought it would show you what taking a tour on the tour boats can be like if ships are in town in the Harbor! | DRE Designs
