I want to visit canada with the family, but how do we get to the attractions?

Question

I want to go to canada with my family in the summer to visit niagara falls but if we are staying in a hotel, how are we going to get to all the attractions like, Marineland and The Niagra Falls Adventure tour. I was looking around and i dont see anything about hotels providing transportation to attractions.

Answer 1

There is a bus type vehicle called the People Mover, which travels back and forth between all the major attractions. You can buy tickets/passes for it at the depot and in some of the hotels.

I live right beside Niagara, so here are very helpful and money saving tip's. All the atraction's are on the Canadian side. First off, if you're looking to to take in as many attraction's as possible, buy the Great Gorge Adventure Pass. This will save you a lot of money instead of seeing each attraction separately. It cover's Maid Of The Mist, The Butterfly Conservatory, Journey Behind The Falls the White Water Walk, the People Mover Shuttle Bus which will take you to all those lacation's and you can ride it all day. You can also ride the Falls Incline Railway which is located accross from the Table RIock House. It take's you to the back of the new casino.Stay away from Marine Land. It's a rip off. There is nothing much there to see. Trust me!!!! Instead, if you are on a tight schedule, look into some of the freebie atraction's as well. Niagara Glen which is free. You can walk nature trail's which take you down to the river and you can see the Jet Boat's speed by. Go to the Imax Theatre. There is a Daredevil Musesum located inside and the Botanical Garden's. Don't forget the Floral clock. A must seet. don't eat at any restaurant's on or around the Falls. Look into The Flying Saucer or Mick and Angelos. Great Food , great prices. If you need a nice Hotel that's centrally located close to the Falls, stay at the Blackstone Inn. Great rate's and a 2 minute walk to Clifton Hill. More attraction's on Clifton Hill as well. But make sure you buy the Clifton Hill Fun Pass. Another money saver.The Balckstone Inn is your best bet because it located near most of the attraction's and you'll save money not having to pay to park. Hope all this info helped. Enjoy your trip to Niagara. If you have any more question's you can reach me at

Most NFO lodgings are serviced by either the Falls Shuttle or the Niagara Parks People Mover.  You might have to combine rides on each to get to certain locations, but it's not hard to do.  Unless you are staying well out of the city or far outside the tourist time period, you should be able to either catch one of these services at your hotel or through a short walk from your hotel.  It would be best to inquire with the specific place you're staying at to get details of what is available at what times.

NFO did not build up into what you see today by making it difficult for visitors to get around with or without a car.
