It’s family road trip time! We are getting out of the big city and into nature, but we don’t want any boring old route. What’s the best way to drive from NYC to Niagara Falls?

A fantastic choice indeed for the city livin’ nature lovers! The fastest route follows I-80 W to I-380 N/I-91 N. However, the best driving route from
NYC
to
Niagara Falls
takes you through some beautiful
New York
sights. Here are the route details:
  • Take the George Washington Bridge to get out of NYC.
  • Immediately get onto NJ-4 W to get on NJ-17 W.
  • Start following signs for NY-17 W—note the NY—until it turns into I-86 W.
  • Take the exit for I-81 N in
    Binghamton
    .
  • Take I-690 N in
    Syracuse
    to I-90 W.
  • Take I-290 N to I-190 N until you reach Niagara Falls!
