Vacation is leisure time. But vacation is also about getting out and about, doing and seeing new things. The locations listed below guarantee a unique experience.
Toronto Islands
Take a ferryboat from the port to the Toronto Islands, a car-free setting that offers a wealth of outdoor activities. Beaches, a beautiful park, picnic grounds and art galleries are only a few of the many possibilities these islands have to offer.
Maid of the Mist
Although you may not be the only one on board, taking a trip on the Maid of the Mist comes very highly recommended. It takes a bit of courage to sail a boat that close to Niagara Falls and hear the sound of more than 168,000 cubic meters (6 million cubic feet) of water thundering down over the crestline every minute. Don’t forget to wear the raincoat you’re offered!
InfoRiverdale Farm
One of Toronto’s biggest surprises is located in the heart of the city center: Riverdale Farm, an attraction consisting of 7.5 acres of forests and gardens! Enjoy a pleasant walk through the countryside, just a few steps away from the bustling city life.
201 Winchester Street, Toronto
Shopping
If you have a passion for shopping, Toronto is the perfect choice for you! The ultimate place to be is Queen Street West in Queen West Soho, one of the most popular shopping districts in the city. Don’t miss out on Kensington Market, where all the diverse nationalities come together and you can find the best shops and secondhand stores with products from Toronto and all over the world.
