Hey guys, today we're taking you to Niagara Falls which is a super easy day trip from Toronto!
A few weeks back on a crisp autumn day, we hopped in the car together with Audrey's dad, Daniel, and we drove 1 hour and 15 minutes over to Niagara Falls. The falls are located right on the border between Canada and the United States, so normally you can walk across the Rainbow Bridge and view them from the other side, but since the border is still closed (we visited November 2020), we'll be showing you the views only from the Canadian side.
Niagara Falls is made up of 3 different falls; you have the Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side, and then the Bridal Veil and the American Falls on the American side.
We spent the morning enjoying the views and walking along the promenade. Then, in the afternoon, we decided to do a little wine tasting. The town of Niagara-on-the-Lake is well-known for its many vineyards and wineries, so of course, we had to visit.
By chance, we ended up doing a tasting at Two Sisters Vineyards, which was voted the best small winery in Canada. Here we tried 4 different wines including Canada's famous ice wine, which is made using grapes that have been frozen while still on the vine. This dessert wine is very sweet and it's almost like drinking liquid honey. A must-try if you're visiting the Niagara wine region.
Our one tip for visiting vineyards in Niagara would be to make a reservation. We showed up without much of a plan and had to try 3 different places before we found one that had availability.
And that was our day. Our visit to Niagara was short and sweet, but it was a fun day trip. Hopefully, once things are calmer we'll be able to plan a weekend escape!
