Niagara Falls, one of the major tourist attractions in the United States of America, quite deservingly. The spot is flooded with tourists at the peak holiday seasons. The picturesque and panoramic view of this place enthralls the tourists, the beauty of the falls captivates their mind, soul and senses, the sight and sound of the falls keep resonating even after long. Watching Niagara Falls is indeed an experience of a lifetime.
Well everything said so far isn’t all; actually any effort to put into words the beauty of this place would be inadequate. To experience the thrill, the aura, the elegance you have to be there. Here you find nature at her gorgeous best.
Now, that you have a destination in mind for your next trip, it is time to plan the tour. Let’s get down to some serious planning here. This breathtaking natural beauty is located at the very remote interiors; it is quite some distance from the major cities of America. If you’re to enjoy the journey, the destination, the accommodation, the food – to be precise the entire tour, and that too without creating a huge dent in the pocket, planning well in advance is a must. Good news for the tourists, there is no dearth of amazingly affordable tour packages to this destination.
Let’s plan.
How to get there?
There are the usual options of taking a flight or even driving to the destination. There are different bus tours, and these tours are usually the most popular and recommended conveyance options. The route is beautiful and so is the experience. Usually these bus tours not only take you to Niagara but to other nearby attractions as well. To name the major attractions, a short trip down to the Bridal Veil Falls, then there is the boat ride, and then there is the cruise ride on the Made of the Mist where you can explore the base of the falls. And for those who love the adrenalin rush there is the option of trekking along the miles of the fall.
Where to put up?
A little planning in this front saves quite a few dollars. The hotels in this part of the world are a little expensive. During the month of May to August, the peak holidaying season, any decent hotel would charge near about $300 per night, for a luxurious stay you have to spend at least $500 per night. Hotels closer to the falls, charge you exorbitant amount with the assurance that you get to see the majestic falls from the windows.
For an economic stay, student housings are available. At this time of the year, between May and August, the students are back home to enjoy their summer holidays, the landlords rent out rooms at meager rates to make some money out of their idle properties. Yes, these are a little far from the falls, but there is always the option of driving to the Niagara.
Where to eat?
If you would like to spend as much time as possible by the falls, make sure you’re carrying enough cash to spend on the meals. Right there, an average meal would cost nothing less than a $100. However, for a cheaper yet sumptous meal you can drive down to the Lundy’s Lane.
A budget holiday to this amazing and at the same time expensive destination is possible; all you need to do is some homework. To find out more, there is the internet.
