Car rental in Niagara Falls

Niagara Falls is just a short drive from several major cities. Renting a car provides the flexibility to explore at your own pace and the convenience to travel beyond the city. Compact cars are ideal for city driving, while an SUV or minivan may offer more comfort and space for family travel or road trips.

Driving and Parking

Driving in the US is on the right-hand side, opposite to the UK. Road signs and speed limits are posted in miles per hour, not kilometres. There are plenty of parking lots available close to the main attractions and most hotels offer free parking for guests.

Attractions and Routes

There's more to Niagara Falls than just the falls. Venture along the Niagara Parkway for stunning views, visit historical sites such as Old Fort Niagara, or take a trip to the nearby charming town of Niagara-on-the-Lake. A visit to the Falls isn't complete without a ride on the iconic Maid of the Mist boat tour!

Enjoy the Local Cuisine

Experience a quintessential American dining experience at one of the many local eateries. Tuck into Buffalo wings, a dish named after the nearby city.

Climate and Seasonal Events

Niagara Falls enjoys a humid continental climate. Winters can be quite harsh and slippery roads may require careful driving. The summer season brings warmer temperatures, perfect for enjoying outdoor activities.

Payment and Currency

The official currency is the US dollar, and credit or debit cards are widely accepted. Remember, your UK bank may charge you for foreign transactions, so it’s worth checking before you travel.
