Before you go
- eTA. British citizens flying to Canada need an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) before they board, unless they hold a Canadian passport. Apply only on the official Government of Canada website; other sites charge extra.
- Niagara boat rides run from spring to late autumn. The falls can be seen all year, and freeze at the edges in winter.
- Driving. A full UK licence is fine for a visit. Highway 407 near Toronto is an electronic toll road; the QEW to Niagara is free.
- Tipping. 15–20% in restaurants and taxis is normal.
