Trips To Niagara on The Lake

Anyone know where I can find transportation from Markham (t.o) to the falls and any recommendations for a hotel to stay at? Are there any package deals? Looking for a good getaway weekend :) Thinking of either NYC or Niagara or Niagara now and NYC during XMAS time. But kinda looking for transportation, good hotel, and what to see any good deals or recommendations people?

For bus and train transportation from Toronto (downtown) to Niagara-on-the-Lake, check out the following:
  • Greyhound Lines at 416-367-8747 or 1-800-661-8747
  • Via Rail at 905-685-9772 or 1-800-361-1235

For tourism info on NOTL, visit their website at http://www.niagaraonthelake.com/ .

I was just there over the weekend, and loved attending the Shaw Festival (www.shawfest.com). If you're under 30, you can purchase tickets for $30 each with proof of ID. Tickets in the orchestra section are regularly $69 each.

Enjoy your trip!

We stayed at a new hotel in NOTL called Harbour House.
Its a beautiful little hotel, with the personal touch.
Its the Number 1 rated hotel in NOTL, according to TripAdvisor reviews.

Not on the cheap, but nothing is in NOTL.

No, its not a bus tour. There are scheduled shuttles that go to and from Pacific Mall.

I don't know if its offered in Markham but in Hamilton there is a free shuttle that takes you to Casino Niagara :) .. that's how I get to Niagara Falls any time I want.

I heard rumors that there is such a shuttle in Toronto but I never looked into it.

Try looking it up and calling a few places, better yet, call the casino.
