A kind viewer brought to my attention that there's a filtering option. You can find it on the right hand side of the search function, you can select 'train' only and it will show you the direct connections.

Hello dear, you have an awesome channel. It's very helpful. I wanted to ask you regarding this weekend ticket. I thought a child below 12yo is free to travel? Thanks

[@kashifjameel1441]

Good work

[@LivinginCanada]

Thank you!

[@user-hl1in7yb8q]

Can you briefly list the Niagara Falls to Toronto service that GO TRAIN or GO BUS offers.

[@islandgirl3330]

Thanks for the video. So if I am going to Niagara Falls on a weekend, it is cheaper to buy the pass and not use the Presto card.

[@janromy4506]

very informative video thanks from Hong Kong

Welcome to the channel!

[@mikeure1528]

really enjoyed the video, thanks. i think however you use the word "connection" whereas I would have used the word "service".

[@LivinginCanada]

I’ll check that out. Yes I think I doubted my word choice for a moment!

[@srivatsanparthasarathy7445]

Presto I am using

[@godwinlee5024]

The journey can sometimes take more than 2 hours mainly because of delays on route. Also it can get pretty crowded especially during summer time.

[@LivinginCanada]

Good to know! I've never took GO to Niagara in the summer, but experienced those awful delays on other routes.

[@masterseems8005]

Driving can take you the same amount of time & you have to put up with lots of traffic which is not so relaxing.

[@hassnainhanif2358]

Hi, i'll be travelling from Scarborough to Niagra falls, do you know what the best route would be for me to take?

[@amaan_1811]

What if we have presto post secondary pass? How to pay?

[@cantrait7311]

Hi I'm thinking of taking Burlington GO Train to Niagara falls, on a Friday depart at 18:11 here's my concern I will have luggage and I prefer to sit on higher 2nd level of the train I don't see any place where I can put my luggage other than blocking a seat area which I don't think is right if the train is full, it is Friday night Any suggestions? Thank you

[@NA-us4ei]

Hi!! Until what time they operate??

[@mariafernandaguerreroguerr8794]

Hello, can you please answer this question? Can I use this kind of card(Weekday Group Pass) to do that? 1x $60 Weekday Group Pass for 5 Valid for a group of 5 passengers traveling together. Valid for travel on one weekday, Monday to Friday. Holidays excluded. (Valid for a group of 5 passengers traveling together. Valid for travel on one weekday, Monday to Friday. Holidays excluded.)

[@rahularora9868]

GO reallt needs to increase the frequency of the Union to NF train. There's only 3 a day, and at times that are not useful for working hours. More and more people are moving to the QEW corridor and the car commute is getting ridiculous.

[@williamchin5904]

I want to try the go bus once, lived in canada my whole life and still have never

[@LivinginCanada]

Haha, I would say it's a pretty basic experience. Nothing special but not too bad either!

[@1zuzsuit492]

Are they 24hrs? Going from Niagara to TO but at night

[@budimanbudiman2935]

Should it be just a daytrip in Niagrafalla or is it better to stay one night in nearby Niagra Fallss?

[@giteshaneja4562]

Hey can we take 2 large luggage in go train?

[@ceeceepee]

I've recently noticed that they added a button too filter out 'no transfers'

[@LivinginCanada]

That's awesome, yes, I think I noticed that later on!

[@villagewaycafe203]

Thanks so much for this info. Do you happen to know a route from Toronto Pearson Airport to Niagara Falls? Any info on this travel (which company should we take) we would really appreciate it so much. Thank you.

[@LivinginCanada]

From Toronto Pearson you can take the UP express to union station and take the GO train from there. Alternatively, you can take an uber to Bloor or Mimico Go station and take the GO train from there.

[@AnnalizaPegarido]

Hi, how far is the distance from Niagara Falls GO to Embassy Suites Hotel? Are there any Taxis around there? Is it a walking distance? Thank you very much

[@Eric-de7ph]

Thanks for the helpful video. After arrival at Niagara Falls GO station, is there a bus or shuttle system from Niagara GO station to the downtown Niagara Falls area where the hotels are? I will be going to Toronto with my family for the first time this month and I'm not familiar with the area at all. Do you know if there is a shuttle from downtown Niagara Falls to Buffalo Niagara Int'l Airport? Any advice about this is appreciated.

[@LivinginCanada]

There's a local bus and also a tourist bus called 'Wego' that takes you around Niagara Falls (Canadian side). I'm not sure if there's a shuttle to Buffalo though!

[@fanfancheong]

​@@LivinginCanadaWhat is the local bus to take you from the GO station to the falls

[@JAROJAN63]

Where are these PrestoCard tap-on-off scanners located? In the train inside? At platforms (for train)? And where in case of GO buses? inside buses? , outside buses? Thanks.

[@LivinginCanada]

It depends, they're on the bus (TTC and GO Bus) and streetcar, at the gates of subway station and on the platform of GO trains

[@irfanm18]

@living in Canada i am holding tourist visa - how do i the customs while crossing border, if this is a direct train. i hold US and Canada tourist multiple entry visa. let me know if I take a direct GO Train , how will I clear the immigration . do they have stop for immigration ?

[@gilbertoparas9388]

From airport to Go train ..possible

[@aliciajarvis5421]

It shows me a filtering option at the top when you enter your search that says no connections. Strange, don’t see it on your screen

[@LivinginCanada]

Thank you! I'll check it out again, if it's there I'll find it :)

Hi, need one advice. The university from which I did my graduation has been closed forever due to internal problem. But I have done my post graduation from another University. ECA already done having Masters equivalancy. Now what to do? Should I show m

[@LivinginCanada]

Your message was cut off by a few sentences!

[@Mahbubalam-xr5jt]

ECA done on Post graduation degree but another university from which graduation done has been closed forever due to their internal prblm. Now what will be my educational qualification in immigration?

[@LivinginCanada]

I am not sure, I would try and check with the WES office (or the organization you got the ECA from) and ask them how they handle such cases. There should be a validity date on the certificate, so you can ask them if it's still valid in that situation.

[@donatospoony]

How long is the “walk “ from Niagara Go Train station to Clifton Hill ?🤔

[@LivinginCanada]

I don't remember, shouldn't be pretty close, check it out on googlemaps!

[@kandokandela7790]

If I have the monthly presto I can also use that ??

[@LivinginCanada]

No, you have to buy another ticket unfortunately.

I just go to the go transit website and found that the schedule in Dec 2023 are not available. Do you know why ;S ?

[@LivinginCanada]

Ugh, no idea! Could be that they don't issue schedules that war in advance in case of changes!

[@JohnLiuFromHK]

@@LivinginCanada Thank you for your reply ;) nice channel btw !

[@realchinese2012]

How far is the go train station to the actual fall? I am going with an old woman, I don't know whether she can walk that far.

[@LivinginCanada]

I think it's about 15-20 minutes brisk walk, I would recommend either taking the WEGO bus or an uber.

[@realchinese2012]

@@LivinginCanada Thanks for your reply, I think we can walk if it's only half hour walk for us.

[@floridaeveryday123]

Should I rent a car for the fall or just take the train? Is the parking free there. Thanks

[@LivinginCanada]

I'm not sure about parking. The train has worked fine for me so far, and there's a local bus as well you can transfer to!

@@LivinginCanada thanks

[@judyyurchuk4904]

Take the train and use the "people mover" bus that drives around the falls....parking is mental

To Niagara yes but not to the New York US side. That would be awesome though!😄

[@joellevillanueva3149]

What about the viarail?

[@LivinginCanada]

I believe the viarail goes from Toronto to Niagara Falls, but it's more expensive I think. I've never taken it to Niagara Falls though.

Hi Dear, Is one day enough from Toronto to Niagara Falls?

[@LivinginCanada]

Yes, one day is enough for a first trip I think! It could be a bit tiring though as you would be rushing from one place to the other. 2D1N would be ideal
