Gateway Niagara

The Niagara Region is dotted with tourist towns rich in accommodations, restaurants, entertainment and natural scenery. World class Niagara Wine is produced by the unique wineries sprinkled throughout the entire Niagara Peninsula. Niagara Falls and The Niagara Casino are, of course, a central hotspot for tourists. But there are lots more tourist towns which are also rich in culture, history and of course, shops. There is lots to see, lots to do and lots of places to stay throughout the entire Niagara Region. Check for an itinerary and accommodations through Tourism Niagara and Niagara Parks Commission.

Fort Erie	Fort Erie is located directly across the Niagara River from Buffalo, New York. American tourists come across The Peace Bridge for shopping and sight-seeing.    Fort Erie Tour	Niagara Falls	One of the Seven Wonders of the World, Niagara Falls, Ontario has attracted hordes of tourists from all corners of the globe. It is still a great honeymoon capital for newlyweds in North America.    Niagara Falls Tour
Queenston Heights	General Isaac Brock and his troops preserved Canada as British when American troops invaded in 1812. The monument now stands over a great picnic area. Queenston Heights also has a pleasant restaurant with a view of the river and a bandshell where bands give free concerts on Sunday afternoons in the summer.    Queenston Heights	Niagara-on-the-Lake	Often cited as the prettiest town in Ontario, Niagara-on-the-Lake, has great shops, pretty houses along its backstreets. And of course, the Shaw Festival and Fort George.    NOTL Tour

It has two marinas, two long piers for walking and two lighthouses.    Port Dalhousie Tour
Jordan	Jordan is a little town with a number of businesses, houses, and streets. It also has a church, cemetary and school. Its most attractive feature over the years has become the community within a community, a street of quaint shops known as "Jordan Village".    Jordan Tour	Jordan Village	Jordan Village is a tourist hotspot with its craft shops, restaurants and wineries. It's a village within a village. The Twenty Valley Trail is accessible at Jordan Village. Hikers make their way to the stairway to the Jordan Historical Museum and continue on to the Ball's Falls.    Jordan Village Tour
Vineland	Vineland is a village where cherry and apple blossoms can still be seen and enjoyed in the springtime. Balls Falls is a 10 minute drive out and so is Jordan Village. There are banks, grocery stores, a hardware store, pharmacy, antiques shops and a movie rental store to service its small and friendly population.    Vineland Tour	Heritage Village	Located within the village of Vineland, Heritage Village is a retirement community where seniors love to do their gardening and where they can safely go for walks. The Rittenhouse Library is right next door. Seniors at The Orchards enjoy day trips and home cooked meals.    Heritage Village
