Our guide Nick was just excellent! We enjoyed the tour so much and got a sense of the city and the people. Saw so much! Very happy with the tour, highly recommend it!
I took this walking tour while visiting Toronto, and I really enjoyed it. The guide was great—very knowledgeable, friendly, and patient in answering all of my questions. I recommend this tour, especially if it’s your first time visiting Toronto. It’s a great way to get familiar with the city and learn about its history and highlights.
Ken was very informative with the local history and knowledge of Toronto and the area. Definitely recommend.
Great overview of the city, giving us cultural and historical details. Our guide Ken was great! He even showed us a hidden gem Banksy hidden on an off street. Worth taking the tour!!

Great tour of the city. We saw a lot of the city and the guide took some great pictures for us.
Don’t miss this tour. Nick was out guide and was a fountain of knowledge about Toronto, and we covered a lot of ground.
Nick showed us great sights, shared his love and knowledge of Toronto. He kept up a good pace but not too fast. He thoughtfully answered all of our questions and had a great sense of humor. It was nice having a small group (we had 10).

This was a great tour to get the history of Toronto and an overview of the city! Do this the first day of your trip and you will get a great overview of where things are and how to navigate the city.
