The Experience

Before You Go

Confirm pickup location in advance

Provide the exact hotel name and room or lobby meeting point to avoid delays; pickups start prior to your scheduled time so verify the window with the operator.

Know luggage limits

Each traveler is allowed one suitcase and one carry-on—contact the operator ahead of time if you have oversized items like bikes or surfboards.

Plan extra time for border-area delays

Allow additional buffer if you visited the Canadian side; proximity to a border crossing can cause unpredictable hold-ups.

Request child or infant seats early

Specialized child seats are available but must be requested during booking to ensure availability.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Terrapin Point overlook on Goat Island for a quick photo stop before leaving town
  • Artpark in nearby Lewiston hosts public art and scenic Niagara River views away from tourist crowds

Wildlife

  • Great blue heron
  • white-tailed deer

Conservation Note

Respect marked areas in the state park, limit idling during pickups when possible, and pack out any trash to protect river-side habitats and migratory bird pathways.

The Niagara River corridor powered early 20th-century industry and hydroelectric projects that helped fuel Buffalo’s growth; the falls have long been both a tourist magnet and an engineering focus.

Common Questions

How much luggage can I bring?

Standard allowance is one suitcase and one carry-on per traveler; oversized items require prior approval from the operator.

What if my flight is delayed?

The operator will attempt to accommodate delays when notified, but pickups may be rescheduled and are subject to availability.

Can the driver help with multiple stops?

Short, pre-arranged stops (coffee, restroom) are often possible—confirm during booking so the itinerary can be planned.

Are service animals allowed?

Yes, service animals are permitted; notify the operator at booking to ensure compliance with vehicle arrangements.

Do I need a passport?

If you traveled on the Canadian side before departure, carry appropriate identification—U.S. citizens flying domestically only need a government-issued photo ID; cross-border returns require passports or other accepted documents.

Is tipping expected?

Tipping is customary for private chauffeur services; 10–20% of the transfer cost is a common guideline based on service level.
