The Fallsview hotel district sits directly above the falls on the Canadian side, about 35 to 55 minutes from Buffalo Airport including the border crossing. A private transfer is a flat $105 per vehicle and drops you at your hotel lobby rather than a taxi stand.

Step by step

  1. Land and collect your bags first

    Pickup is planned around your bags being in hand. Do not head for the curb before baggage claim, since the meeting point is outside on the arrivals level.

  2. Meet your driver at Pole 13

    Pole 13 sits on the arrivals curb beside the limo parking area. Your driver also contacts you on the day with their name and vehicle type.

  3. Have documents ready before the bridge

    Passports out and accessible for everyone in the vehicle, including children. Officers may ask each traveller directly.

  4. Cross, then relax

    Your driver picks the crossing that is moving best that day. The flat rate already includes the first 35 minutes of border wait.

  5. Lobby drop-off

    You are delivered to the door of your tower, so there is no walk with luggage from a distant rank.

The short version

  • Flat $105 per vehicle, one way, regardless of how many of you are travelling.
  • Your driver meets you at Pole 13 on the arrivals curb, after you have your bags.
  • Every passenger needs a passport or other accepted document for the crossing.
  • Add your flight number when you book so a delay moves your pickup instead of costing you the ride.

Which Fallsview hotels this covers

The flat $105 rate applies across the Fallsview towers, so the price does not change based on which one you booked. That includes the Sheraton, Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt Regency and DoubleTree among others.

If you are still choosing a hotel, the transfer cost is not a reason to pick one over another on this route. Distance between the towers is a few minutes at most.

When to book earlier than you think

Summer tourism season, holiday weekends and event weekends are the times this route fills. The constraint is vehicle availability at your specific arrival time, not the route itself, so an early booking mostly buys you the pickup slot you actually want.

Late evening and overnight arrivals are worth booking ahead for a different reason: the scheduled and on-demand options thin out at those hours, while a booked transfer is already assigned to your flight.
