Full review
During a weeks visit to Toronto we unfortunately had a very rainy day, and having exhausted all the miles of PATH underground shopping, we decided to go to Casa Loma. Getting there was no problem as we had previously purchased tickets for the open top bus tour which were valid for a week. The tickets can be purchased at several locations including outside the main railway station.
Casa Loma itself is an old mansion, built in a very idiosyncratic style by a wealthy businessman who was continuously developing and changing it. Detailed guide books are available together with electronic self-guide devices, which can be borrowed. There are also some attractive gardens and a very narrow "secret" passageway leading under the main street. There is a restaurant in the basement serving a wide variety of sandwiches and larger meals.
Not a great place to visit in my view, but others may find the historical aspects interesting, and it was certainly well presented, with helpful staff.
Cost to get in is around £5 each for adults - not sure about child prices.
