If you are in Niagara Falls, or anywhere in the Niagara Region it is possible to take a taxi to either the Toronto International Airport (also referred to as the Toronto Pearson Airport), or to the Toronto City Centre Airport (also referred to as the Toronto Billy Bishop Airport). Or, is it possible to come from the airport to Niagara by taxi.

There are two concerns with taking a taxi.

First, it is a long drive. 125km plus, which means the taxi is going to be costly. And because in almost all instances, the taxi will not be able to pick up passengers for the return trip, you are paying for the taxi to return to Niagara.

Second, are you going to find a driver who is knowledgeable about the airport, best travel routes and drop-off points that are closest to the airline your require.

In addition, none of the taxi services, that we are aware of, will provide you with an on-time guarantee. In other words, do they guarantee you will make your flight on time, and if not provide you with reimbursement to reschedule your flight. When you are traveling the distances for either Toronto airport, over one of the busiest stretches of highways in North America, a guarantee of on time arrival is very important.

You may well be far better off to take either a shuttle bus to the airports, or a private car/limo driven by an airport savvy uniformed chauffeur. The one company in Niagara that has been moving passengers to an from the Toronto airports, as well as Buffalo International Airport, and others in the area, is Niagara Airbus (www.NiagaraAirbus.com). Niagara Airbus has been servicing Niagara, Toronto and Buffalo for 33 years with 24/7 door-to-door pickup and drop-off, every day of the year.

Niagara Airbus Shuttle buses operate around the clock transporting customers to and from these and other airports, with an “arrive on-time” guarantee. You save money by combining your trip with others going to the same place. So large groups, or a single passenger are treated to a comfortable ride, with a professional driver, and door-to-door pickup. It doesn’t matter if you are being picked up at a hotel, business or your home.

Niagara Airbus also provides what they call “exclusive” car (or bus) service to, and from, the airports as well. What this means is that if you wish to ride alone and go direct to the airport or back home, they provide a limo service specifically for this purpose. Using extremely comfortable, relaxing Lincoln cars and Lincoln Navigator full size SUV’s, you can enjoy excellent private car service. Of course your private car is driven by a uniformed chauffeur.

So the answer to your questions, is there a taxi service from Niagara Falls to the Toronto airports, or is there a taxi service from the Toronto Airport to Niagara? The answer is yes, but there is also a better way to go.
