Getting there and around
Niagara Falls is accessible by car via the Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW) from Toronto and Buffalo. The city has a train station served by GO Transit and VIA Rail, and buses connect from major cities.

When to go
The peak season is summer (June to August), when the weather is warm and all attractions are open, but it is also the busiest. Spring and autumn offer milder temperatures and fewer crowds, with spring bringing blooming flowers and autumn colourful foliage. Winter can be cold, but the falls are illuminated and the Festival of Lights runs in nearby Niagara Falls, Ontario, and Niagara Falls, New York. Many attractions remain open year-round, though some seasonal ones close in winter.
