Yes! Niagara Falls State Park (Prospect St, Niagara Falls, NY 14303) has bus parking in Lot 3 at 50 Goat Island Road; Lots 1, 2, and 4 do not allow bus parking. Lot 3 gives your group a designated place to park while students tour the falls, the Maid of the Mist boarding area, and the Observation Tower.

Yes! ADA-accessible charter bus rentals are available through the Charterbusrentalbuffalony.com network. When you call 716-587-9460 or submit your quote request, mention that you need a wheelchair lift, widened aisles, wheelchair securement positions, or other accessible features.
