Excellent tour. Leo is a knowledgeable and thoughtful guide. Kept a nice pace. Saw sites both above ground and in the below ground PATH system. Highly recommend for a first timer’s orientation to the city.
On the day it was only us two on the tour however our guide Leo made it a great experience - very personal. A must tour to get a feel of the city environs.
This is an enjoyable way to learn a bit of Toronto past and present. It was Entertaining and informative.
It meets by the TORONTO sign in Nathan Phillips Square and we walked about the downtown area learning so much about the history of the city and the buildings.
Wow! This tour completely changed my way of seeing the city. The bit with the underground tunnels was my absolute favourite bit.
Great walking tour! Leo is very knowledgeable and was able to answer all random questions about Toronto and Canada. Highly recommend!
My friends and I really enjoyed this tour! Leo has extensive knowledge of Toronto and its history, as well as Canada in general. We loved all of the stories he told and he was a great conversationalist throughout the experience! Highly recommend to get the lay of the land!
Leo was funny and informative—very entertaining and engaging tour. Highly recommend taking this tour with him! Learned some interesting facts about architecture, history, and culture of Toronto!
A great way to get an introduction to downtown Toronto. Leo was very knowledgeable and friendly. In response to questions he gave excellent suggestions and information about other areas of the city as well. Would definitely recommend this tour.
I learned a lot of new and interesting facts about Toronto during this tour. I also discovered hidden passage ways and local dishes because the tour guide told me of them. The tour guide was very polite and entertaining. Originally from Brazil, but his English was excellent and I understood every bit of it. A great thanks.
Our guide Leo, knew sooooo much about Toronto history, architecture and general knowledge and was very enthusiastic in sharing with his small group all he knew!
It was a great tour. Leo was very informative and answered all of our questions. The two hours flew by.
We had a tour with Leo and he was fantastic. Very engaging and knowledgeable about everything from history to sports to politics. I would highly recommend booking a tour with him when visiting Toronto.
Leo was the perfect person to guide our small group of friends through Toronto on a very cold and windy day in the city! He did a great balance of switching between above ground and underground for warmth, and there were never long sprints of walking. We felt like he gave us a lot of info without being overwhelming, and he told us great stories that some other friends in Toronto hadn't heard. However, he really went above and beyond with service when he texted me the morning of my reservation to let me know that because of the Easter holiday, many sites would be closed that day, and if we were open to it, he would change our tour to the following day to get the full impact of the tour. We rearranged our plans easily, and were so happy to fully experience Toronto like a local the following day. Throughout the rest of our trip, my friends and I often referenced Leo and the stories he told us. What a memorable experience at a great price!
This tour went through Toronto both above and underground. It was an amazing informative tour about the amazing city. Leo, our tour guide, was excellent!
Leo was very informative and personable.
There was confusion about our meeting point. The guide waited for us. Thankfully, my partner and I were the only two on the tour so others weren’t inconvenienced.
This was exactly what we were looking for in a tour of Toronto! Leo was prompt, professional, pleasant, and extremely knowledgeable about the city. Can’t imagine you would find a better tour guide. The tour is great if you want to hit the highlights and learn something about the city without killing a whole day. We highly recommend this tour!
Our tour guide Leo, was very professional,. He met with us on time, walked us through the heart of Toronto like a pro,. I really recommend him for your tours.
We had a great time with Leo. He was knowledgeable and entertaining. We saw a side of Toronto we never would have found. This was a perfect introduction to the city and set us up nicely for the remainder of our visit.
A great intro to Toronto! Our guide, Leo, was very friendly and knowledgeable. We particularly appreciated his great food recommendations at the St. Laurence Market. Be sure to ask for his favorite spots!
Leo was a great tour guide, highly recommend! A good mix of new Toronto and Old Toronto stops along the way
I thoroughly enjoyed the walking tour of Toronto. My guide, Leo, provided a very informative tour. I can highly recommend it. Robin, Australia
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
Shows some history and a broad feel of Toronto. Easygoing chatty host with a good factual knowledge.
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.
Leo is a great tour guide, lots of interesting info about torontos history. Follow his advice about the peameal bacon!
Leo our tour guide was very informative, knowledgeable, pleasant and professional. We really enjoyed the tour.
Leo was an excellent tour guide! The perfect walking pace… he was very knowledgeable and was happy to answer any questions… I would take the tour again!
Very informative, friendly and knowledgeable guide, Leo. Great way to see the highlights and get to know the place. Would definitely recommend.
Excellent communication from beginning to end. Our guide was thorough and the city walk was a good pace for Q&A. Not a “canned” experience. Authentic. So glad we did this.
