Things to do in Niagara Falls, Canada: The Best Walking Tours
Once a destination for honeymoons and family vacations, Niagara Falls has really stepped it up as an action-packed vacation spot. The falls are literally the biggest draw – watching the frothy water tumble at alarming speeds can be mesmerizing. Throw on a poncho and hop aboard the Maid of the Mist to cruise close enough to the falls to be drenched by spray. Hit the main strip of Clifton Hill for flashy tourist attractions and restaurants galore.

I used to travel back home in Vietnam at the end of June, 2019 last year and I had to have a stop for a transit in Toronto Pearson International Airport for few hours. I think that was a new and exciting experience because when my flight was from Halifax to Toronto ended, I went to Toronto airport to transfer to the next flight and honestly, the airport is so huge and the way to the gate for my next flight is so long. I was confused a little bit about my gate flight and had trouble in finding the way so I asked the staff and they helped me and directed me the way politely. They were so friendly and hospitable to the travelers. However, I love the unique architecture of that airport’s building since it is very modern and amazing. There are many luxury high-fashion brands along the way I was going to my gate too. Everything is so new and modern. When I came to my gate, I found a seat to wait for my next flight, I can see it is so convenient for me since there are many tables with many tablets for the travelers to order the food from the opposite restaurants or to play games, surf the Internet in free time, which helps them “kill the time” to do something else while waiting for their next flight for too long. I was very excited when I found an Asian restaurant that is in front of my waiting seat with a Vietnamese name, I think, I did not remember. This restaurant attracted so many guests and I should have probably tasted the food from that restaurant if I had had time since my transit time was only about few short hours. The airport is full of travelers from many different culture and countries because Toronto is known to have a variety of culture from many countries in the world. It was an amazing experience for me since this airports helps me feel familiar with Asian community, culture and has many diverse culture so I didn’t feel lost and alone in Canada.

King Shuttle from Maple Leaf Square to Toronto Premium Outlet and back was a very convenient way to travel on this first snow storm day of 2020. Excellent service. Very punctual. The driver extremely polite. A very cautious driver, given the terrible road conditions due to the snow storm. Highly recommended. Would use it again.

Our fully-guided experience adds thrill to the breathtaking panorama as gravity floats riders 670 metres (2,200 feet), at speeds of 70+ kph (40+ mph), along the edge the vast Niagara river gorge to the Falls observation landing. Feel the incredible force of nature on your face! Continue on to see Niagara River’s Class 6 white-water rapids at the White Water Walk. The roar of the river provides a deceptive calmness, the perfect ambiance for your walk among the many viewing platforms that put you right at the river’s edge.
