The CN Tower is a signature icon of Toronto's skyline and attracts more than two million international visitors annually. Its name "CN" originally referred to Canadian National, the railway company that built the tower. It houses several observation decks, a revolving restaurant at some 1,151 feet (351 metres), and an entertainment complex.
Harbourfront Centre is an international centre for contemporary arts, culture and ideas, and a registered, charitable not-for-profit cultural organization operating a 10-acre campus on Toronto’s central waterfront. Harbourfront Centre provides year-round programming 52 weeks a year, seven days a week, supporting a wide range of artists and communities.
Sugar Beach is an urban beach park in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, that opened in 2010. It is located across from Redpath Sugar Refinery in Toronto's eastern East Bayfront. Like HTO Park to the west, the beach is not meant to allow wading or swimming in Lake Ontario, but rather functions as a waterfront public space for relaxation, leisure, and social activities.
The Gibraltar Point Lighthouse is a lighthouse located on the Toronto Islands in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Begun in 1808, it is the oldest existing lighthouse on the Great Lakes, and one of Toronto's oldest buildings. The lighthouse is perhaps best known for the demise of its first keeper, German-born John Paul Radelmüller, whose 1815 murder forms the basis of Toronto's most enduring ghost story.

Unfortunately I cannot remember the guides name but he was fantastic. His sense of humor was was great and he was very knowledgeable. He even gave the address to the outside of the 'Suits' office building.
Great ride. 8 pm was a perfect time to see the skyline at night. Host Diego was fantastic - very informative and entertaining!
It was horrible. We arrived before 8:45 pm and it was about ten people total they refused to let on the boat. It was literally empty on the boat and they hadn’t pulled out and they did not let us on. No refunds just rude.
Short enough to fit into an afternoon of, long enough to give you a flavour of the city. Lovely cool break on a hot summer day.
Nice and relaxing. The speaker guide was Ryan was really good. Great photos of the city from the boat.
Not very much information from the “guide “. He was a nice guy, but when guides ask for tips and a high rating, it confirms my observation.

The cruise was fun and informative, we enjoyed our time. The guide could have been more relaxed with public speaking, sounded too scripted.
A very good short tour of Toronto harbour with lots of interesting information and fabulous views of Toronto
The experience is awsome. This was one of the activity that we did with Toronto CityPass. The boat "Oriole" is clean. Our guide Ryan was very funny and entertaining. I am glad we did this activity. We did some great photos.
Only choosing 1 star because I can’t make it zero. Downstairs, inside the boat, is boiling hot since there is no A/C. Also, you can’t hear the tour guide at all inside since there aren’t working speakers! The windows are tiny and the chairs are cheap and unanchored to the floor with a horrible cushion. I went to ask if they can connect the tour guide to a speaker or at least turn the volume up but they did absolutely nothing about it. This is a horrible “sightseeing” tour on an old boat, go somewhere else if you want to have a good time.
