Just booked our Mega Bus tickets to Niagara Falls - makes me really excited and wish it would hurry up and be the end of April already!
 
Are you going with the HO tour or on your own?
 
@The Kitchen Guy: Thanks for the laugh this morning! I had forgotten about that "bit"!! I used to watch the 3 Stooges as a kid at the neighbors after school every day (I wasn't allowed to watch it at my house). Brought back some great memories!!!

On my own! Most of the trips including the one HO is booking through include vineyard tours and such, those just don't appeal to me. We are taking the Mega Bus down there and back. We got two round trip tickets for $68. We also considered the Go Bus or Go Train out of Toronto but you cannot prepurchase tickets, you just go and get them sort of like a regular bus. I like to be in control so I chose to order now through mega bus.
