Toronto Area Trip Plans

[Gonz Of Lancashire]

I'm in Toronto for a week on the 15th August, could someone help me with the following questions;

1) The best day to visit Niagara Falls.
2) The best day to visit Canada's Wonderland and is it easy to get to on public transport from downtown.

Cheers.

As for Canada's Wonderland from downtown you take the subway up to Yorkdale Shopping Mall and there is a bus terminal once you get off the subway and walk into the mall and you have to take a Go Bus there (will cost you more money other then the TTC fair) To let you know on Saturday and Sunday each day you can get a Day Pass for the Public Transit (TTC) for $8.50 and gives you unlimited use of the transit you can get on and off as much as you want and its good for up to 2 adults and 3 kids or 1 adult and 4 kids or 2 adults no kids OR just 1 person so thats a great way of travelling around on the weekends each day you would have to buy one but cheaper then keep paying transit fare if you want to do alot of travelling on the transit.

Niagara Falls not sure if theres a better day or not since it is the summer and people will be there on tours, vacation, etc... I think anyday can be busy.

If you want more info just e-mail me myasmum@hotmail.com as I live right in Toronto and can see whatelse I can find out for you (not sure if you have been here before or not)

Niagara Falls will be busier on weekends...you'll have locals hanging out, going to the casino, plus out-of-towners.

Stay away from Wonderland on weekends. I'd stay Tuesday and Wednesdays are the best days to go to avoid the crowds. GO EARLY!
