The Best Sights of Canada’s Toronto to See on Foot, Toronto, Canada

Canada’s Toronto is a massive city that if, like us you are not really urban people, can feel overwhelming. However, in our two days visiting the city on our 2 month Maritime road-trip, we creamed off Toronto’s best bits, getting a great cultural feel of this Ontario capital city.

Cities are not everyone’s cup of tea, although for a rounded travel experience, we absolutely believe that interspersing a bit of urban into our love for nature and countryside is important. So when we planned our trip to Canada’s Maritime eastern-board, flying into Toronto, it made sense that we took a couple of days to explore this iconic cityscape. We stayed at the Westin Harbour Castle Hotel which is down on the Harbourfront region. It is ideal for accessing the key areas of the city with plenty of walking and the odd land and water taxi and subway thrown in for good measure.

Toronto is the fourth largest city in North America and the largest populated city in Canada, offering the traveller plenty of skyscraper vistas, parks and a lakeside perspective that eases the eye to the urban landscape. So here’s an itinerary guide that gives you a robust 2-3 day plan to get to know this magnetic city. And check out our latest video that takes you on a virtual tour around the city.
