A friend and I are planning to visit Niagara Falls for the first time..we are in our early thirties..Any suggestionson what to do? What is the weather like in September?

September would be an excellent time to visit - the weather is still warm but it is a lot less crowded. Dont miss the butterfly conservatory

Rose, <BR>Lots to do: <BR>Casino Niagara - it's biggest advantage is that it has an entire non-smoking floor. <BR>Hike the escarpment <BR>Do a winery tour <BR>Visit Niagara-on-the-Lake, shop on their so cute main street, see a play (Shaw festival). <BR>Weather should be perfect. Have fun!

Hi...What is the escarpment?

Check the website:http://escarpment.org/ <BR>Click on the Niagara area for info. Unfortunately the guided hikes seem to stop at Labor day. You don't have to hike - you can just drive along the Niagara Parkway. There are walking paths along the parkway (paved). It's really lovely. <BR>

Take in all the sight that the Niagara Parks Commision has to offer - Maid of the mist, butterfly conservatory, school of horticulture, Scenic Tunnels, Spanish Aerocar etc. Lots of literature available at all the hotels. A cheap way to see the sights is to hop on the People Mover and take it from one end to the other. Also, about 1/2 drive is Niagara on the Lake - a pretty quaint town that offers horse and buggy rides and is full of trendy small stores. Another popular attraction is Marineland - $$ but a big hit with the kids. <BR>The tourist area of Niagara Falls offers a full day of going through the museums and souvenier stores and just walking along the parkway adjacent the falls. Nightlife you may want to check out Yuk Yuks Comedy, Hard Rock Cafe, Planet Hollywood. <BR>The weather in September should be warm during the day ie 70 or so, but during the evenings you will likely require a sweater - especially near the end of the month (light jacket even) <BR> <BR>If you enjoy hiking ask for hiking paths along the gorge.
