Itinerary

  1. CN Tower

    one hour Admission included

    One of the most recognizable landmarks in Canada and a true architectural marvel. Standing at a soaring 553 meters (1,815 feet), it once held the title of the world’s tallest free-standing structure and continues to dominate Toronto’s skyline today.

    On your guided visit, you’ll skip the lines and ride the high-speed glass-fronted elevator to the LookOut Level, where panoramic views of the city, Lake Ontario, and even the distant mist of Niagara Falls await on clear days. Step onto the Glass Floor, an exhilarating experience that gives you a bird’s-eye view 342 meters (1,122 feet) straight down.

    Capture breathtaking photos, enjoy the fresh air from the Outdoor SkyTerrace, and take in the 360-degree views that make the CN Tower one of the most visited attractions in North America.

  2. Stop 2

    one hour Admission included

    Set sail on a scenic Toronto City Harbour Cruise and see the city from a whole new angle—right from the water! This relaxing cruise takes you across the inner harbor and around the picturesque Toronto Islands, offering some of the best panoramic views of the downtown skyline, CN Tower, and waterfront landmarks.

    Enjoy gentle breezes, open-air decks, and plenty of photo opportunities as your captain shares fun and informative commentary about Toronto’s history, architecture, and vibrant shoreline. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a returning guest, this boat ride provides a unique perspective you won’t get from land.

    Note: Boat Ride (May–Oct) or Casa Loma Visit (Winter)

  3. St. Lawrence Market

    45 min

    Step into the heart of Toronto’s culinary and cultural heritage with a visit to the St. Lawrence Market—one of the world’s great public markets and a beloved local landmark since 1803. Nestled in the city’s Old Town district, this historic market is home to over 100 vendors offering everything from farm-fresh produce and gourmet cheeses to artisanal baked goods and international delicacies.

    Enjoy free time to explore, sample local favorites like peameal bacon sandwiches, shop for unique souvenirs, or simply soak in the vibrant atmosphere. The market is not just a foodie haven—it’s also a cultural hub where history and community come alive in every aisle.

    Included in Tour: Self-guided time to explore, shop, or dine
