You can get on the trolley and pay at the next station.
During the ride, there is a tourguide who will tell you more about the park, the Falls and its islands. Its a very relaxing way of seeing the whole state park.
Note:
A whole day trolley ride is also included in the Passport to the Falls ticket.
If purchsed seperately:
Adult: $2.00
Child (6 to 12): $ 1.00
Children 5 and below are free

Explore Niagara Falls State Park in the comfort of the Niagara Falls Scenic Trolley. Enjoy an overview of the park in half an hour as a knowledgeable guide shares the history of the park with you along the three-mile route, or get off at each of the six stops and explore the Niagara Falls attractions. The Niagara Falls Scenic Trolley is a favorite because they allow you to see the park while you relax and enjoy the ride. Each vintage-style trolley is equipped with modern conveniences and tickets are available at various locations throughout the park, so you can zip from one Niagara Falls attraction to the next.
Trolleys run every 30 minutes
First trolley starts - 9 a.m.
Last trolley starts - 11:30 p.m.
Ride all day for just $1 visiting downtown Niagara Falls USA hotels and attractions. Just purchase a Trolley Day Pass when boarding. It is valid for one adult and two children, age 11 and under. Senior citizens (age 65+), disabled and Medicare cardholders with valid ID pay 50 cents. Exact change is required.

However, even when they were crowded, we had to take the trolley to cover one long stretch from Parking Area P3 to Parking Area P1. The trolleys make six stops on a three-mile route. We could have stayed on for the full 30-minute loop if it were not very crowded, but we took advantage of the hop-on/hop-off system. Leave a Comment Theme: BusPhone: 716-278-1730

If you go BY TRAIN: The train station is approximiately 5 miles from the Falls. The train ride is relaxing if you have the luxury of time to spare.... and the ride is about 8-9 hours long and costs US$58.00 each way. There are usually four departures daily starting from 7:00 A.M until 4:00 P.M. Amtrak offers service from Penn Station in Manhattan. You may wish to surf to Amtrak's website to check their daily schedule. And it should costs you US$10 for a cab ride from the train station to the Falls....
If you plan TO DRIVE: God bless you... It's gonna be a long drive! New York City is 406 miles from Niagara Falls. So, it will take you about 6.5 hours to drive from NYC to Niagara Falls....
If you plan to TAKE A BUS: Greyhound has a bus service to Niagara Falls. And this route takes about 9-11 hours. The fare is roughly US$55.00 one way or US$105.00 for a round trip ticket. You can surf straight to Greyhound's website to check on their departure times but be warned - the ride is exceptionally long. :-( Theme: Train

Tour buses from either side of the border will get you there. You can fly into Buffalo or Toronto (the closest major cities to the falls, and bus there or rent a car. I drove my own car, as I was on a Canadian mini-tour. From Hamilton, it is less than an hour's drive, and from Toronto, perhaps an hour, hour and 15 minutes depending on traffic and weather conditions.
Walking is the easiest way around the falls area. Nothing you will want to get to will be more than 10-15 minutes walking. I do not recommend driving during peak times as the pedestrian and car traffic increases. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

If you are in reasonably good shape and enjoy walking, then I do not recommend you take the Niagara Scenic Trolley. You may end up spending a lot of your time waiting for a ride. However, for some the Trolley might be just what the doctor ordered.
At the Visitor Center you can purchase an all-in-one admission to the six major attractions in and around Niagara Falls State Park, and it also includes a Trolley pass. You'll save 20% off single admission prices, so if you want to see everything - and why not - you may want to get the "Passport to the Falls."
The Trolly circles Niagara Falls State Park, and has stops at or near all of the major attractions. Leave a Comment
