Bustling and full of culture, with a thriving art and food scene. Add in beaches for the summer and a top-notch nightlife. There\u2019s a lot going for this Canadian gem.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where should you go? What attractions should you see? We look at the best things to do in Toronto. Trust us, it won\u2019t be long before you\u2019re searching out flights to visit there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Around the city<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/theguidebook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/toronto-1.1.jpg\" alt=\"View of Toronto and the CN Tower\" class=\"wp-image-14303\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets-guidebook.isango.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/toronto-1.1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/assets-guidebook.isango.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/toronto-1.1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assets-guidebook.isango.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/toronto-1.1-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If a cool art scene and diverse food choices don\u2019t get you excited, then Toronto isn\u2019t for you. Because that\u2019s what this city thrives on. Before you exploring those scenes, and let&#8217;s be honest you&#8217;ll have to anyway, be sure to discover its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/toronto\/hop-on-hop-off\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">top attractions <\/a>such as Casa Loma, Fort York, the Royal Ontario Museum, and yes, the Bata Shoe Museum. Cobblers, I hear you say! Yep, a shoe museum and well worth visiting it is too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve explored, then it\u2019s time to check out the food, try a local beer, and partake in the famous nightlife scene. Pick from theatres or perhaps a cruise to enjoy the Toronto skyline. Entertaining and informative in equal measure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/toronto\/cn-tower\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CN Tower<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Stand at the foot of the tower and look up! Go on, high isn\u2019t it! The tower stands at over 550 metres and was once the tallest tower in the world. It\u2019s now the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tokyo-skytree.jp\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tokyo Skytree<\/a> if you were wondering. It matters little, as a trip up the CN Tower will still give you breathe-taking views across the city. You\u2019ll see Lake Ontario and do you dare to step over the void of the glass floor! Look down if you can handle it!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visit day or night and you\u2019ll see the best of Toronto. Showing off all its charms. There\u2019s even a light show at dusk which paints the tower in a sea of colours. If the tower has enthralled you, next up, well, it\u2019s one of the world\u2019s wonders and for good reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/toronto\/niagara-falls\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Niagara Falls<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/theguidebook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/toronto-3.1.jpg\" alt=\"Niagara falls ariel view \" class=\"wp-image-14302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets-guidebook.isango.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/toronto-3.1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/assets-guidebook.isango.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/toronto-3.1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assets-guidebook.isango.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/toronto-3.1-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, it\u2019s a Toronto must-see and just has to be visited, right? Take half-day or full-day tours to get the most out of your experience. Have your camera ready to take pictures of the cascading waters and scenery. Simply stunning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you get up close by taking the Maid of the Mist boat ride or enjoy the torrent of water from the observation deck. A day or an hour here is a treat for the senses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Further afield<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have the time and feel that you\u2019ve caught the best of the city atmosphere, then head out of town. You can book special tours that\u2019ll take you deep into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/toronto\/white-water-tubing-at-elora-gorge-a-toronto-experience_33730\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Canadian countryside<\/a>. Fancy some camping in the wilderness? Hiking through forests, enjoying camp meals around the fire? Sounds perfect doesn&#8217;t it. It\u2019s a world away from the city, but you\u2019ll appreciate the comforts even more after this adventure. And the scenery, well it\u2019ll take your breath away.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Toronto may not have the same pull and gravitas as some of its neighbour city\u2019s but it more than makes up for that with top attractions, great food, and special nightlife. Now that should be incentive enough to come here.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Have you been to Toronto? Let us know if you have a favourite place to visit.
