According to Metrolinx, there will be four departure times for passengers to choose from when travelling between Toronto and Niagara Falls. 

Purchasing a roundtrip will cost you $30 a person with their Go-Niagara Parks travel package. The package comes with some other perks for you to enjoy when you arrive. 

For example, it provides you with a WEGO bus pass, which will help you navigate the city and Niagara Parks attractions.

From the train station, you can hop right on the WEGO buses and get on or off as you please for two days.

If you're going as a group, you can grab a $65 pass which will cover two adults and three kids. 

The trains depart from Union Station in Toronto and make stops at Exhibition, Port Credit, Oakville, Burlington, Aldershot, St. Catherines and Niagara Falls, according to GO Transit.

The first train from Toronto leaves at 8:51 a.m. from Union Station and arrives at 10:53 a.m., according to their schedule

Other departure times are at 12:51 p.m., 4:51 p.m., and 8:51 p.m.
