Don't forget that you need a passport to cross the border.
If you drive from Manhattan to Toronto, you'll pass through Niagara Falls. You may want to spend a night there instead of Toronto, as hotels are considerably cheaper.
my travel is on march around 17th, i have heared a lot about NIAGARA FALLS and wish to see it, how far is it from NYC or from Toronto? if I can't rent car from NYC to drop off in toronto, what are my other options? is there any traines or bus that goes from NYC to NIAGARA FALLS and then to toronto?
if I use aa miles on these travel should I do all at once, for example from chicago to nyc flight, and then from there by bus or rental car to toronto and then flight back to chicago?
thanks
