What’s the best driving route from Chicago to Niagara Falls USA?
My daughter will be going to college at the University at Buffalo in New York in the fall, and I thought we could stop at Niagara Falls on our drive to move her in. What’s the best way to get there from Chicago?

That will be such a great trip for you both! The best driving route from
Chicago
to Niagara Falls
USA is 555 miles and will take almost nine hours to complete. If you’re looking for a slightly faster route and don’t mind driving through part of Canada, you could get there in 8 hours and 36 minutes. Both routes, however, include toll roads, so be sure to include that into your road trip budget. The all-American route will take you through the following cities before you land in Niagara Falls:
If you opt for the moderately quicker route, you’ll pass through Michigan, hitting
Kalamazoo
, Lansing
, and Flint
. Then you’ll cross the Canadian border at Point Edward and go through London, Hamilton, and St. Catharine’s in Ontario before crossing back to the U.S. and arriving in Niagara Falls, New York. No matter which route you take, you’ll want to take a few minutes to check your
car insurance coverage
