About This Tour
Niagara Falls is a must visit attraction, but it is too far to visit in one day from New York City. By flying to Buffalo, this natural wonder becomes accessible even for travelers short on time, with time to visit both the USA and Canadian sides if you wish. Take a 90 minute flight from New York City to Buffalo Niagara Airport where a driver will transfer you to and from Niagara Falls. Enjoy a guided walking tour of the Horseshoe Falls, American Falls, and Bridal Veil Falls, along with a 2 course lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe. Depending on the season, experience either the Maid of the Mist boat cruise to the base of the Falls (May–Oct) or visit the Observation Deck for panoramic views (Nov–Apr). Start your day by making your own way to JFK, EWR, or LGA for your flight to Buffalo. After 4–5 hours exploring Niagara Falls, your driver will return you to Buffalo Niagara Airport for your flight back to New York.
