What a great way to discover parts of Toronto. Leo was a very knowledgeable guide who made the tour interesting and amusing . He gave us a great insight into the history of downtown Toronto and he kept a good pace throughout. Highly recommended by two oldies.

Even-though it rained ( a biblical Downpour) our guide still made the walking tour fun , utilising the “Path” to keep us dry and away from the elements, our guide was enthusiastic and had lots of interesting facts about the city and the mix of old and modern buildings. Highly recommended to see the city, a great way to spend two hours
Great tour well worth the money.

Our tour operator was Leo and he knew so much about all things Toronto that we asked him and was a very nice guy. Saw some great thing we never would have discovered doing things on our own.
Good value

Our guide Leo was excellent! Very animated and enthusiastic. The tour covered a variety of donwtown locations, with both historical and modern spots. It's an easy walk. The St. Lawrence Market is a must-see with fantastic local food vendors and imported exotic items as well. All in all a great tour, not too long, gave a good snapshot of the lower downtown.
