Can you still walk across Canadian border?
Can you still walk across Canadian border? The simple answer is yes, you certainly can. I don't think many people know you can just walk across our international border between Canada and the USA.

Is it worth going to Niagara Falls without a passport?
The largest waterfall, known as “Horseshoe Falls” or “Canada Falls”, is mainly located on the Canadian border. Considering that two of the three waterfalls are located in US territory, it's safe to say that you can get a great look at most of Niagara Falls without needing a passport.
