Our trip to Toronto was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Kensington Market was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.

We added a couple of optional activities beyond Ripley's Aquarium of Canada and don't regret it. Good value for what was included, and the food recommendations from our guide were spot on.

Harbourfront Centre alone was worth the trip, but combined with Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) this itinerary really delivered. Breakfast at the hotel was good every day and the local guide was knowledgeable.
