I am trying to plan a trip to Niagra Falls NY (not sure about the border crossing rules) for me and my 3dd age 9,9, and 7. I want to enjoy the falls and the fireworks so I am planning a mid week trip, arrive on Wed leave on Fri at the end of August. Is this too much or too little time? Where would you stay? We collect hilton points and there is a hampton inn but it appears a little far from the falls. There is a comfort inn next to the park. or some other suggestion. I am driving so we will be able to drive around. I am thinking of taking them on the Maid of the Mist, and doing the cave. Am I crazy for trying this on my own? Any suggestions would be great.
