Wheelchair & Scooter Rentals

There are several ways to gain access to wheelchairs or other mobility rentals when visiting Niagara Falls.

The easiest way to rent a wheelchair or scooter is from the accommodation you are staying at.  Several Niagara Falls hotels have their own wheelchairs and scooters available for guests.  It is suggested you enquire at the time of booking to ensure one is available for you upon arrival.

A few of Niagara Parks attractions offer free wheelchair rentals on a first come, first serve basis.  Table Rock Welcome Centre has eight wheelchairs available for rent with a credit card imprint or other form of acceptable identification.   A single wheelchair is also available for use at both the Floral Showhouse as well as the Butterfly Conservatory.  Please note that during the winter months, wheelchairs may not be taken outside of their respective building locations.

Marineland also offers wheelchair rentals for guests on a first come, first serve basis for a nominal fee.  You can find them in the Aquarium Dome building immediately adjacent to the right of the admission area.

From March 31st to November 1st, eSkoot Niagara provides mobility scooter rentals, with delivery and pickup from your Niagara accommodation for a fee.
