About the Buffalo to Cambridge trip
It's about 94 miles (150 km) from Buffalo to Cambridge, Ontario, including a border crossing. Cambridge trips are often business at the manufacturing plants along the 401, family visits in Galt, Preston and Hespeler, or the architecture school in Galt.
We pick you up at BUF arrivals or anywhere in Buffalo, such as Cheektowaga, Williamsville or Lancaster, and drive the QEW to Hamilton, then Hwy 6 or the 403 and Hwy 24 into Cambridge. Drop-off can be Galt's riverside downtown, the University of Waterloo School of Architecture in Galt, Toyota's Cambridge plant and nearby offices or Hespeler Village, or any address you give us.
Galt's downtown sits on the Grand River; drop-offs there are easiest off Water Street and Main Street.

Route and timing
- Coming in, the Hwy 6 and 401 junction is the main slowdown on weekday afternoons.
- We check live border wait times before your pickup; both US CBP and Canada's CBSA publish them.
- If you're landing at BUF, we track your flight and leave once you're in the car, so a delay doesn't cost you a spot in line.
Border crossing, passports & NEXUS
- There are two good crossings on the way to Cambridge, Ontario: the Peace Bridge from downtown Buffalo to Fort Erie, and the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge north of Niagara Falls. Your driver checks the waits before choosing.
- Canadian border officers inspect everyone in the vehicle at the bridge, so have documents ready and be prepared to declare anything you're bringing in.
- Heading to Cambridge, every traveller needs ID that Canada accepts. A valid passport is recommended, and NEXUS cards and US enhanced driver's licences are also accepted. Bring a document the US accepts for your return trip too.
- The NEXUS lane can only be used when every person in the vehicle, including the driver, is a NEXUS member; otherwise we time your Buffalo pickup for the regular lanes.
Requirements depend on citizenship and age. Check the official guidance before you travel: US CBP (entering the US) · CBSA (entering Canada) · Live border wait times
