Toronto: City Walking Tour

Toronto: City Walking Tour

With your guide, you will learn how to navigate your way through the the centre of North America's largest city, while learning about the city and seeing many of Toronto's great locations and buildings. By the end of the tour, you will feel more like a local, than a visitor. You will meet your guide (and the others in our small group) in Toronto's Entertainment District, which is home of many live theatres, restaurants, bars, nightclubs and concert halls. With our small group size, we are able to engage with our guests in conversations and questions along the entire walk. We like to refer to our tours as 'walk and talk' through the city. As we leave the Entertainment District, we head towards the city’s waterfront. On the way to the waterfront we will pass some of the city's most iconic buildings such as the CN Tower (at one time the world's tallest freestanding structure), and the Rogers Centre, (better known as the Skydome to the locals). There are many interesting stories to be told about the Rogers Centre. Our tour takes a short break at the waterfront, and then we head into the city's PATH. The PATH is a walkway, mostly underground which stretches over 30km/20miles in length. The PATH connects most of the buildings in downtown Toronto. This walkway is VERY handy both during winter and on rainy days. With its 500 places to eat, over 1000 shops, six subway stations, and eleven hotels, the PATH is an experience that visitors to Toronto must not miss! After popping in and out of PATH, we enter a building called BCE Place. The building was designed by the Spanish Architect - Santiago Calatrava, is one of the city's most spectacular buildings. During the final half of our tour, we will walk through an area of the city known as Old Toronto. This is an area where you will see buildings that are original to Toronto’s boom in the 19th century. This area has a very different feel/vibe than the rest of the city. This is the area where you will find some very good restaurants and some or city's historical buildings. The final stop on the tour is the St. Lawrence Market. In 2012, the market was ranked as the 'world's best food market'. Currently the market is still ranked in the top 10 food markets in the world. In the market, we will point out some of the most popular venues and foods that can be found in the market. The market is a great spot to complete the tour and spend your time sampling some of the great foods that you will find in our city.
