Marvel at the breathtaking view of the Niagara Falls. Feel the soothing mist and get lost in the natural beauty. Take a ride on the Hornblower Niagara Cruise or climb up the Skylon Tower for a panoramic view.
Escape from the city buzz and travel to the Toronto Islands. Relax on the beach, rent a bike, or stroll along the boardwalk. Head to Centreville Amusement Park for their mini-golf course and antique rides.
Admire the underwater wonders in Ripley's Aquarium of Canada. Walk through the tunnel and get up close with sharks, sea turtles and many more. Witness the daily shows and feedings.
Shop for vintage finds, try different food, and observe the vibrant street art in Kensington Market. Get a haircut at the aquarium-inspired barbershop, visit the house painted entirely in green or pick up a new vinyl.
Breathe in the fresh air and unwind in High Park. Walk through the serene Japanese Garden, visit the zoo or go to the Grenadier Pond for a picnic. Sit back and relax on one of the park benches and watch the sunset.
The easiest way to get around Toronto is on the TTC (Toronto Transit Commission) Subway or streetcars. A day pass costs $13.50 and will be valid for unlimited travel for one day. If you opt to go to other places like Niagara falls or the islands, it is best to check and compare car rental prices versus organized tours in advance.
If you have more time, explore more of the Greater Toronto Area like Markham, Mississauga, and Brampton for more cultural experiences. If you have less time, you can skip Kensington Market and spend more time on other attractions or have an extra day trip to explore more of the natural wonders surrounding Toronto.
