Why take this tour?

Your walking tour of Downtown Toronto will begin at Dundas Square*. The square has hosted many concerts, festivals and events and is surrounded by shopping and entertainment. From here, you will head to Nathan Phillips Square.

Nathan Phillips Square sits in front of the current Toronto City Hall. Here you will have an opportunity to snap a selfie with the famous Toronto sign, as well as check out the reflecting pool and Peace Garden. Just steps away from here, you’ll have a chance to see the Old Toronto City Hall. The stunning architecture of the building was designed by the same architect as Casa Loma.

Continuing onward with your walking tour, you will pass by First Canadian Place, Union Station and Fairmont Royal York before heading to a photo stop at Maple Leaf Square, also sometimes referred to as Jurassic Park.

After this you will head towards the CN Tower where you can snap some pictures in front of the Canada sign. If you've chosen to add the CN Tower admission to your tour, you will ride up in the glass elevators inside to an observation area with an incredible, panoramic view of the city.
