OurBus
Pros: The drivers were very friendly and informative, they made sure we knew which stops would have food/bathrooms, etc. and answered any questions we had. Both buses were comfortable, and there were so few passengers on the 8:10 am departure bus and subsequent connection that I could stretch out and put my bags on the seat next to me. The bathroom was clean as well. I like the new connection spot of Buffalo airport (so clean and nice spot to have lunch) way more than Buffalo bus terminal (not so nice). Cons: nothing! Except that the wifi isn't as strong as I would have liked. I could text but not do video calls, and I could not listen to a podcast that hadn't been downloaded first. Tips: Bring food if you're not into fast food/gas station snacks. Also, fyi - very few ppl are wearing masks at this point - I kept mine on just to feel safe as I don't want to come down with COVID while in the US!

City Information

Toronto

CATOR-0CATOR-1CATOR-2

Toronto is one of the world’s most culturally diverse cities, making it a great destination for travellers looking for a culturally unique experience. One of the most unique landmarks in the city is the Aga Khan Museum, which boasts a beautiful collection of Islamic, Iranian, and Muslim artefacts. If you are interested in art, the Art Gallery of Ontario is a definite must-see. For those who want to step away from the bustling city and seek the refuge of nature, take a ferry to Centre Isle, which offers plenty of activities such as biking or hiking.

Toronto’s food scene is vast and extremely vibrant due to the city’s multicultural nature. Bar Isabel is a local favourite that offers amazing Spanish dishes with a cosy vibe. For a more posh experience, head over to Alo Restaurant, which features a five-course tasting menu that will take you on a culinary ride.

The main coach station in the city is the Union Station Bus Terminal, served by various intercity coach services, including Greyhound and Ontario Northland. The main train station in Toronto is the adjacent Union Station, which is the hub for VIA Rail’s intercity services. The city’s airport is the Toronto Pearson International Airport, the busiest airport in Canada.

Ithaca

ITH-0ITH-1ITH-2

Blessed with over 150 waterfalls within 10 miles, Ithaca is every outdoors fan’s petit haven. The most notable, and the tallest of the bunch, is the Taughannock Falls. There are hiking trails located close to the falls that will provide an amazing overlook of the falls itself, but do stay away from the water in the gorges. If hiking is not your cup of tea, perhaps a boat cruise on Lake Cayuga, which is the longest of the Finger Lakes, will offer the tranquillity and peace of mind you need. For culturally-inclined tourists, don’t hesitate to take a short detour to the State Theatre of Ithaca, which offers top-tier shows and concerts that charm locals and visitors alike.

Ithaca boasts even more restaurants per capita than New York City, and its amazing food scene seems to have a little bit of everything for everyone. For the best burger in town, check out Ithaca Ale House. If Italian food is your thing, the door at Franco’s is wide open for you.

Several coach carriers conduct trips in and out of Ithaca, including Greyhound, OurBus, FlixBus and New York Trailways. Unfortunately, there are currently no Amtrak trains that go to Ithaca. The Ithaca Tompkins International Airport serves as the town’s main airport. It is located three miles northeast of the city centre.
