Toronto

Toronto has some interesting attractions, but few must sees, and in the weeks prior to my visit I alternated between thinking I'd never be able to fill my days there and thinking I'd have far too much to fit in during my stay. It was hard to tell from my mini guide book what the absolute must sees were, but over a day and a half I packed in the following. It may seem like a lot, but I never felt too rushed, and also had time for a bit of shopping and lots of eating, things equally important in any city break itinerary I draw up for myself. On my first day, on the advice of a local friend, I ... more

Toronto is an absolutely fabulous city and although it perhaps doesn't have the fame and prestige that the likes of NewYork and Washington have, it is undoubtedly a city you must visit. OK so I might be biased since I lived there, but that certainly doesn't mean I'm wrong! Toronto is located in the Canadian province of Ontario and, contrary to popular belief, it is not the country's capital. That is Ottawa a slightly more understated city to the East of Toronto. Toronto is a massive sprawling metropolis with a distinctly cool and cosmopolitan vibe that attracts people from all walks of life ... more

This review is about my time in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, I spent just under two weeks in this province, and so I thought I would share my travel experience with everyone. I have been to Canada once before, however I was very young and thus didn’t really get a feel for the province; I was too young to travel around and to young to do the things I enjoy doing now. These reviews won’t list all the things that can be done in Toronto, but rather just the things I had done during my stay. Hopefully, this information will be of some use to anyone reading this and hoping to travel their one day ... more

Toronto has got all the ingredients for a fantastic value for money weekend extravaganza! Think Canada and you think it's a world away but it really is'nt. I flew from Glasgow and the flight was under six hours,It can take longer than that to travel from the north to London or from the south to Edinburgh but you would certainly consider those city's for a weekender! Globespan do some fantastic deals for around £380.00 for a six night trip including a couple of nights in Niagra.They do use a basket case charter airline though! Toronto will leave shopaholics in a state of euphoria gasping for ... more

Toronto is a shoppers delight - which is a good thing as it is one of the most sterile places I have ever visited. The touristy things are written about very well elsewhere on Ciao so I will only mention them briefly: CN Tower. It's tall and when the wind blows half of it (the top bit) is shut. The views are very impressive and it is not the most expensive place to go. Skydome Huge, bigger than Wembley or Twickenham, this stadium has a concrete base which is lined with astroturf for either Baseball or American football. Hence the padding!! They also play basketball here, have concerts, fun ... more
