Niagara Falls Tours From
Hockey Hall of Fame

Staying near the Hockey Hall of Fame? Here is the plan

We do not stop directly at the Hockey Hall of Fame, but your pickup point is a 3 minute walk away: head west along Front Street to the Fairmont Royal York at 100 Front St W and wait by the Front Street doors. The coach arrives at 8:00 am for the day tour.

Before or after your tour: around Yonge and Front

• The Hockey Hall of Fame itself opens later in the morning, so plan it for after your tour or the next day.
• Berczy Park with the famous dog fountain, is 2 minutes east.
• St. Lawrence Market one of the world's great food markets, is a 7 minute walk.
• Union Station and the PATH are directly across from your pickup point.

Tours departing from this corner

The Niagara Falls Day Tour picks up at the Fairmont Royal York at 8:00 am and returns between 5:00 and 5:30 pm. From CA$99 per person, with skip-the-line boat packages from CA$159. Groups can book a private tour with pickup at your exact address.

Prefer to see the falls illuminated at night? The Day and Evening Tour does not stop here, but the nearest evening pickup is Dineen Coffee Co. at 140 Yonge St, an 8 minute walk, departing 1:15 pm in summer (May 8 to October 15) or 12:10 pm in winter and returning about 11:00 pm.

Your day at the falls, starting at Union Station

After the short walk from your hotel, the coach handles the rest: about 90 minutes to the falls with commentary, then 3 to 4 hours of free time plus skip-the-line attraction packages. Popular picks:

• Niagara City Cruises (Hornblower) boat ride - included in the CA$159 day tour package.
• Journey Behind the Falls - the tunnels behind the waterfall, included in the CA$209 package.
• Skylon Tower and the Niagara Falls helicopter tour - optional add-ons you can book on tour day.
• Free time for Clifton Hill, Table Rock and the falls viewpoints, plus a 35 minute maple syrup and chocolate stop on the way.

Back at the Fairmont afterwards

Drop-off is back at the Fairmont Royal York between 5:00 and 5:30 pm, a 3 minute walk home past Berczy Park, with St. Lawrence Market's neighbourhood restaurants close by.

A little history: hockey's bank vault

The Hockey Hall of Fame lives inside an 1885 Bank of Montreal branch, one of Toronto's finest surviving Victorian bank buildings, and the Stanley Cup itself sits in the old vault under a stained-glass dome. It opens mid-morning, so plan it for after your tour returns; the building alone is worth the ticket.

Fairmont pickup questions

What time should I be at the pickup spot?

Please arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled pickup time. The coach stops briefly at each point, so being early keeps the whole tour on schedule.

Where exactly do I wait?

By the Front Street doors of the Fairmont Royal York, 100 Front St W, a 3 minute walk from the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Where can I get coffee before pickup?

Union Station's food hall across the street opens early, and the Fairmont lobby has coffee if you are cutting it close.

What if I am running late?

Call or WhatsApp us at +1 416-792-7968 as soon as you can and we will tell you the best option, which is sometimes catching the coach at its next pickup point.

Can I bring luggage on the tour?

There is no luggage storage on the coach, so travel light. If you are checking out that morning, leave your bags with your hotel's bell desk or a downtown luggage service and collect them after drop-off.

What is the cheapest way to reach Niagara Falls without a car?

Cheapest is the GO+WEGO combo, from CA$22 on weekend days. Budget roughly 2 hours each way plus the 2 km hop from the GO station to the falls. The CA$99 coach tour picking up at the Fairmont Royal York, None minutes from Hockey Hall of Fame, is the direct alternative: 90 minutes to the falls with a guide and scenic stops.

Does any shuttle run from downtown hotels to the falls?

Shuttles as such do not exist on this route. You either take transit with transfers or book a tour seat. Ours picks up at the Fairmont Royal York, None minutes from Hockey Hall of Fame, at 8:00 am.
