There's nothing like an excellent cigar after a good meal, or anytime really. In Buffalo, the place to find exotic cigars and cigar accessories is a great little store called the Tinder Box. This is no ordinary cigar shop, as the staff knows that choosing the perfect cigar should be just as relaxing as enjoying one. That's why there are several large, leather chairs in the store, as well as a large television and coffee and soft drinks available, too. The Tinder Box offers the largest selection of cigars outside of Manhattan, and you'll also find a great selection of humidors, cutters, and lighters here as well.

Buffalo's economic growth owes much to the Niagara River and Lake Erie. Historically, this body of water has been pivotal in the area's water trafficking economy and is also an attractive natural spectacle. Hear about the commercial growth while enjoying the aquatic visual appeal when you take the Buffalo Harbor Cruises. The cruises feature highly informed guides who tell the stories that have occurred between these shores. They will be happy to answer your questions, as well. Take your camera to snap lots of great views of the harbor and the city. The tour's vessel, "Miss Buffalo II," regularly departs from the dock at 79 Marine Drive.
