My wife and I are considering a road trip to niagra falls or toronto for her birthday coming up at the end of october for a couple of days. Found some cheap hotels both in and around niagra and toronto, but need some insight on some other things to check out while we are up there.

we would like to not to spend a whole lot of money since it's just a short getaway and though money isn't super tight, we're not rolling in it either. any and all help would be appreciated.
