The walk between them
In the casinos' own description, the walk between them takes about 20 minutes. In a straight line between their map points, the two are 1.4 km apart. Fallsview Casino Resort sits on a cliff above the Horseshoe Falls, at 6380 Fallsview Blvd. Casino Niagara is at 5705 Falls Ave, beside Clifton Hill.
Either building gives access to the Falls. The Horseshoe Falls are also roughly a 20-minute walk from Fallsview. A paid incline railway, a short cable railway running down the slope, begins just past the Fallsview bus bay. Casino Niagara's lower-level doors lead out onto Falls Avenue, directly across from the railing over the Falls.
Riding instead of walking
- A shuttle connects the two casinos every Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and on OLG Stage show days. Between 4 p.m. and 12:45 a.m. it leaves every 30 minutes, except from 8 to 8:30 p.m. From Fallsview, it leaves the bus area on the lower concourse at each hour and half hour. Its last trip from there is at 12:30 a.m. At Casino Niagara, it leaves from the Victoria St. entrance at quarter past and quarter to each hour. The last departure from that side is at 12:45 a.m. Showing a Momentum card, the rewards card shared by both casinos, lets you ride at no charge. A show ticket for OLG Stage or the Avalon Theatre is also accepted, as is a partner hotel key card. The partner hotels are Skyline Hotel & Waterpark, Sheraton Fallsview, The Brock and Clifton Victoria Inn at the Falls.
- Niagara Parks runs the WEGO visitor buses, which operate all year and are fully accessible. You can buy a pass at Fallsview, in the Niagara Parks Shop and Welcome Centre.
- Both casinos are served by taxis, and at Fallsview a door attendant can phone for one on your behalf. Uber and similar ride-hailing apps also serve Casino Niagara.
