Guide To Ontario
Available for hire
There are well over 100 things to see and do in Niagara Falls and it gets very overwhelming for visitors who don't like to do a ton of research ahead of time.
Here is the solution for what to do in Niagara Falls for a weekend.
This weekend itinerary will lead you to the absolute must-see attractions, as well as the hidden gems, showcase the local food and drink, recommend accommodations, and suggest some unique points of interest as well.
As a professional tour guide in Niagara Falls, I know better than anyone how long it takes to do certain attractions, where to park, and how to schedule your day so that you get to do a lot but feel relaxed and get to enjoy the moment.
Come with me to feel the thunder of the Falls, find the best views, and know that you've had the best possible day in Niagara Falls!
❄️ Some recommendations in this guide will not be available in the winter, so check out my "Niagara Falls Winter Wonderland Guide" for those details.
📞 If you want a version of this itinerary customized to you, order a custom itinerary with me, or book a consultation call to ask me questions and for more recommendations.
🇨🇦 I'm excited to help you find authentic Canadian experiences that you'll talk about for years to come!

Arrive the Night Before
I highly recommend arriving in Niagara Falls the day before you start exploring. It gives you time to settle in, a night to rest, and start your Niagara Falls journey fresh!
Plus, following this itinerary doesn't leave you with much extra time.
My Recommended Places to Stay
Hilton Niagara Falls/Fallsview Hotel & Suites
@GuidetoOntario
The Hilton is a very popular choice for staying in the heart of Niagara Falls. It is in a central location and is within walking distance to the Falls, restaurants and public transit. The hotel quality is superb and has some fantastic views of the Falls.

Niagara Falls Marriott Fallsview Hotel & Spa
@GuidetoOntario
The Marriott Fallsview is also a great quality hotel in the heart of the tourism centre in Niagara Falls. Overlooking the Falls, this hotel has amazing views and is in walking distance of many great restaurants. It differs from the Marriott on the Falls in that Marriott Fallsview has an attached spa to elevate your stay with some self-care.

Niagara Grandview Boutique Hotel
@GuidetoOntario
This historic hotel is in a quieter part of town but still close to the main attractions. It's modern rooms have kept their character and are comfortable. Some rooms have balcony views over the Niagara Gorge (not the Falls).
The service is great and it's the place I recommend for those who want a local, authentic experience steeped in history.

🤐 My paid Travel Guides hold hidden gems and secret spots - Do you want the inside scoop?
I help local and visiting travellers uncover Ontario’s most authentic Canadian experiences, breathtaking nature, and rich heritage.
I am proud to be born and raised in rural Ontario and to have travelled all around this great Canadian province.
My love of travel has also lead me to live in England for 2 years and travel to many, many more countries, including South Africa, Egypt, and New Zealand.
I always want to bring my international friends home to Ontario with me to show them the best of Canada (in my opinion - no offence Rocky Mountains!).
I specialize in Ontario because I live here, grew up here, and know the best spots from Thunder Bay to Ottawa to Windsor. However, I would say my specialties are Muskoka and Niagara Falls.
In fact, I have been a professional Tour Guide in Niagara Falls.
I love being a guide and I want to help you have the best experience possible by tailoring your trip to your passions and interests. I'll help you find those unique experiences that will have you telling a great story for years to come!
