Getting to Fallsview Casino from Toronto - Quick Question
 
I am going to be in Toronto on business Thursday and Friday with nothing to do Thursday night (staying downtown at the Westin). What is the best/easiest way to get to Fallsview Casino, and how long would it take? How about getting back?

Thanks!

Rent a car, it takes about 1-1.5 hours.

There is a chinese bus tour company... f*ck, I forget the name, but they will take u down and back for $30, but you get $25 casino credit, so it really costs $5. They depart from Toronto and return quite often through the night and morning.

hope this helps

I think it's called Tripmate Tours. It leaves from Chinatown. You can also call ahead (905) 371-7777 to put your name on the lists, I'm not sure if they give you 60 or 90 minutes, but you could call when you pass Hamilton on the way there and if traffic is not too bad, you should be there in time.

I think Tripmate went bust. It's now Safeway tours. I don't know the number but directory assistance will give you the info. The bus is 5 after the token/cash rebate. But if you are a first time visitor it's 15.

YAAAAAA. Safeway tours!
Hopefully OP gets this in time if it was ever really an option.

BLT is the best meal in casino niagara.

From downtown Toronto, it's about 125 km to Fallsview. If there's no traffic, you can make it in just over an hour from the time you get on the highway.

However, getting onto the Gardiner/QEW from downtown may take 20 minutes and if you're leaving anywhere near rush hour expect a 20-60 minute slowdown through Oakville & Burlington. Fortunately, you're not leaving on a Friday and it's currently October.

If you did this trip on a Friday afternoon in July, I would expect it to take you 3-4 hours.
