Toronto Attractions

Toronto has got a great mix of world-class attractions, seductive natural scenery, charming neighbourhoods and the world's highest tower from which to see it all. Its historic districts, such as the Distillery area, have been impeccably preserved while remaining vibrant centres of city life. Museums such as the Gardiner and Royal Ontario rank among the finest in North America while the Toronto islands and Harbour front areas are perfect places to relax without having to travel far from the city.

It does get pretty cold over the winter months of November to March so if you are averse to chilly weather plan your visit over the mid-year period.

Toronto just might be the destination that has it all - reason enough to visit and enjoy what has been described as Canada's 'world within a city.'
