Dear All

I intend to land at Rainbow Bridge this weekend. I just a few last minutes questions and i hope any one who have landed at Rainbow Bridge will be able help me here.

1. Is the address of CBA - 5660 Falls Avenue Niagara Falls ON L2E 6T1?
2. Is this the address where i have to complete the landing process?
3. When i check this address in the google map, it shows me "Casino Niagara" and "Crowne Plaza".Is the CBSA office located in this building?
4. If i am right, i cross the bridge, tell the US people that i am here to land, get the refusal letter, comeback to the above address to land. Am i right?
5. Is there anything else i have to do?

No, it's not in a hotel or casino :D

And that other address you mentioned might be a CBSA administrative facility, but it is not the place where you land. You complete your landing at the point of entry into Canada when you come back over the bridge.

Apart from that, I think you have the right idea.

I checked again and I guess that technically is the street address of the point of entry. In any case, don't worry about the address. Just follow the one road you're on and follow the officer's instructions when you arrive :)

Do not tell to the Americans that you are there to land. Let them know that you are there to flagpole.
When I went to the American side, at the same time, there was an Asian girl that said that she is there to land, and it did not go well for her. You are on the American side to flagpole, and once you are back on the Canadian side, let the border agent know that you would like to do your landing.

Just google map rainbow bridge and follow the sign when you get close, there are plenty of them e.g. "Bridge to the US". You won't get lost :)
Do as what people above suggested. My landing experience at Rainbow Bridge was very nice and smooth, hope yours will be too. Good luck and have fun there after you land.
