    Frequently asked Questions:
    Is the viarail part of GO TRANSIT?
    Via Rail and Go Transit are two types of train service.
    Via Rail operates CN trains and is Canada's national/federal public transportation system. Metrolinx (Metro for short) owns and operates GO Transit, UP Express and PRESTO.
    Via Rail trains are more expensive than Go trains. Via trains are more configured for long hauls and have more comfortable seating and leg room, and they have food and beverage service.
    Go trains are commuter rail - no service aboard and more closely packed seating.
    Via has one trip per day each way.
    Via runs in Montreal, Halifax, Toronto, Kingston, Ottawa, Québec City.
    Metro trains are limited to Ontario, while VIA is Canada-wide.

    Does Wego still run from Transit terminal to NOTL ? Only info I could find was that it only runs in summertime. Taxi should be expensive, not sure if Niagara Falls transit runs daily scheduled trips to the lake

    Thank you for the useful video. After arriving at Niagara Falls GO station, is there a bus or shuttle service that will take me to downtown Niagara Falls where I can find hotels? This month, my family and I will be visiting Toronto for the first time. Are there any shuttles between Niagara Falls and Buffalo Niagara International Airports? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    • @VibesAfar
      @VibesAfar  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      1) Niagara ON Go station -> Niagara downtown.
      It was served by city buses when I last went. If they no longer pick up from there, then there is a bus stop just a walk away around the station. I'd take any of those buses they all end up going downtown. Of course, Uber is also an option.
      2) As for Niagara ON to BUF airport, you can book a van if you're a family. We booked a van for 6 and paid around $160 in 2022 with this company:
      buffaloairportshuttle.com/reservations/
      I also used Flixbus (Canadian company) for two (was cheaper but charged for luggage):
      www.flixbus.ca/bus-routes/niagara-falls-on-buffalo-ny
      It took us directly to BUF but you can ask for a drop-off at the airport

    Can you tell me where these PrestoCard tap-on-off scanners are located? In the train? At the platforms? For GO buses, are they inside the bus? Outside the bus?

    • @VibesAfar
      @VibesAfar  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      There are scanners at the lobby (where ticket and information kiosks are). Most travelers scan/tap at one of those next to the elevator that takes you to the platforms.
      You can also tap on the train itself (or bus) right at the door. Other than the PRESTO card (which simulates PayPal), they also accept credit or debit card (which you can also do on your smartphone or smartwatch):
      www.prestocard.ca/en/about/contactless
      It also helps to create a Presto account for your card online (account # is on the card). This way, you can charge/top it in advance:
      www.prestocard.ca/en/
      You only tap on a PRESTO device at the beginning of your train trip and you don't
      need to tap off at the end of it.

    How long is the scenic part of the train ride? Do you recommend specific seats for views?

    • @VibesAfar
      @VibesAfar  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Quite some, a window seat would be ideal (either side

  • @Fabian-pz6jk
    @Fabian-pz6jk 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Is there a GO BUS from terminal to niagara on the lake ? would be nice if GO TRANSIT can extend the GO TRAIN trip from Toronto all the way to notl instead of just ending it at Niagara Falls

    • @VibesAfar
      @VibesAfar  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No, there isn't

    Wait, Niagara Falls ON THE LAKE? Is that different from the regular Falls? 🤔

    • @VibesAfar
      @VibesAfar  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, it's a separate stretch outside in the countryside part of the regular Falls (known for the vineyards)
