From Toronto or from New York, visiting Niagara Falls is a must for any traveler who appreciates nature. Due to its magnitude, its grandeur and its history, Niagara Falls are a highly chosen destination within Canada and the United States, ideal for visiting as a family, as a couple or alone.The famous Niagara Falls, located partly in Ontario and partly in New York, function as a natural border between the United States and Canada.
About the Falls
These falls are made up of three waterfalls, the most impressive being the Horseshoe Fall, located mostly on the Canadian side. Also present, on the American side, are the American Fall and the Bridal Veil Falls, both less mighty and showy but just as beautiful.
The Falls Niagara is one of the great wonders of Canada and the world. Its spectacular nature does not reside so much in its height, but in the amount of water that falls. And they have a record: they are one of the largest waterfalls in the world, with more than 2.5 million liters of water every second! It was our first stop in Canada from New York and the truth is that we liked them much more than expected.
Here we want to leave you a series of tips to facilitate your trip to Niagara Falls, and that will help you plan your trip to this area, on the border between Canada and the United States.
How to get from New York to Niagara Falls
From our experience, we can recommend the Hilton Niagara Falls hotel, it is very well located and you have spectacular views of the two falls from your room on the upper floors. You can take the Niagara Falls Limo Service for the best use now.
Other tips
If when you go to Niagara Falls the boat works, do not hesitate to get some tickets for the Maid of the Myst (in the American part) or the Hornblower (in the Canadian part) , some boats that take a tour of the three falls .
Cave of the Winds is also very good in summer, by means of an elevator you can go down to the shore and almost touch the American falls with your hands. If the boat is not working when you visit Niagara, good substitutes are Journey behind theFalls on the Canadian side and Winter Experience (which is what they call the part they leave open in Cave of the Winds) on the American side, which they are open all year round.
Cave of the Winds
To go from one side of Niagara to the other, you have to walk across the border between Canada and the United States through a bridge, so verify and have your passport ready to do so before entering the bridge. When accessing the bridge from the Canadian side they will charge you $ 1 per person toll for walking across. Be careful with trying to cross with your rental car from Canada to the United States or vice versa, verify that you can do them, because normally rental cars are prohibited and the rental is only valid for the country where you have hired the car.
