Toronto Pearson International Airport is the busiest airport in Canada and many people fly in to catch a connecting flight to their destination. These stops for transfer from one flight to another are called layovers.
Sometimes the layovers are so long, you will have time to leave the airport and go sightseeing for a few hours.
If you have a few hours to kill on your Toronto layover, visiting Niagara Falls would be a great way to spend your time. It is just a 1.5-hour drive from Toronto Pearson International Airport.
You can make tour arrangements with a Niagara tour operator before your flight. Tour operators offer a private vehicle with driver/guide for half a day Niagara Falls Tour with pickup from Pearson Airport.
You can book a half a day Niagara Falls tour (6 hours). The itinerary is totally upto you. You can spend all your time viewing the Falls or explore some of the places in the city.
The first thing you can do on arriving in the city of Niagara Falls, Canada is view the massive waterfalls. The Niagara River separates Canada from USA, so when you stand atop Niagara Gorge you are on the Canadian-US border.
Niagara Falls is made up of 3 waterfalls – American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls and Horseshoe Falls. The largest of them, Horseshoe Falls, is entirely on the Canadian side.
Stand near the brink of the Horseshoe Falls and feel the spray as over 600,000 gallons of water per second fall 51 metres into the gorge.
You can do a search on the internet about various attractions and choose a few.
After viewing the Falls, you can see Whirlpool Rapids, Journey behind the Falls, Floral Clock and Queen Victoria Park. You could also take a ride up Skylon Tower.
After 6 hours, your driver/guide will drive you back to Toronto Pearson Airport in time to catch your flight.
