What travellers are saying
- Nikki V1 contributioniconic building, really great views from the top especially on a clear day. view of the city as well as the Great Lake. we were lucky enough to be able to see the US side as well since it was very clear. the tickets are a bit pricey. and for people with vertigo (like me), the glass elevators can be jarring. but once at the top, you don't feel worried about this any more. remember to go to the lower deck for some extra views that people often miss!Written January 22, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- dambankerToronto, Canada1,854 contributionsGot talked into spending a day on the Toronto Islands. Anyone that knows me, knows that I really don't like traveling to Toronto, easily my least favorite place to be. Finding parking is always a challenge, but once we found a spot, we met up at the water taxis for the ride over. The ride was cheap and the Toronto skyline is best viewed from the water.
The island itself was very clean and well maintained. The trails are clearly marked with lots of rest stops and a small restaurant/snack bar. We managed to find a nice secluded beach that we had to ourselves. It was really hard to imagine that this was Toronto. Had a really great relaxing fun time here. So good here, it made me like Toronto for a day.Written January 19, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I found it really interesting and very cool! Even I came over a bit ‘fan girl’ when we got to pose with the Stanley cup!
Brilliant insight into Canada’s national sport - definitely worth an hour or so of your time and great value too.Written January 9, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The food and atmosphere were great worth stopping in.Written December 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Josh K56 contributionsI saw the Toronto vs Houston game, food and beer were priced. Great stadium to visit it is one of my favorites. Blues Jays are a fun team.Written December 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- yachtarelaxPeterborough, Canada9 contributionsI had such a great time at the matinee of Six at the Royal Alex Theatre. We took the Go to Union Station and walked to the theatre. We stopped to eat at The Loose Moose and it was fabulous. The Royal Alex has nice seats and they are a decent size. A larger/taller person could be comfortable here.Written March 5, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Wayne NSydney, Australia2,610 contributionsVery easy to use, we hopped on to go to the Toronto Islands. Cheap transport, efficient and good overall experience.
Definitely worth using.Written October 19, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The actors, dancers, and musicians performed with such passion. The attention to detail, from the set design to the lighting, creates an immersive experience.
This production is a must-see for all ages.Written January 16, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

While there take a boat ride you won't be disappointed with the wealth of information and history about the harbour and the islands off in the distance...a few restaurants and shops lined the area as well.
Beautiful and picturesque skyline of Toronto when on a cruise on the lake, shouldn't be missed.Written September 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Carlo FToronto, Canada739 contributionsVery laid back clothing optional beach. Be respectful and you'll be fine. The newly opened beach further down from the original Hanlan's beach has become the new clothing optional spot. The older spot has more shade and better swimming than the newer beach, while the newer spot is more of a social gathering.Written August 20, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Elizabeth HToronto, Canada30 contributionsOn the last day of summer, Sunday, September 22, 2024, I took the ferry-boat to Centre Island and back to the mainland.
One of the places I visited on the island was the Centreville amusement park. It's a family-friendly park with rides, games, and refreshments. I went for a ride aboard the train, which crosses the lagoon near the Far Enough Farm petting zoo and then through a tunnel.
I'd eventually make my way to the beach and walk out onto the pier. An excellent place to people-watch. There's fewer people on the beach, and a few brave souls swimming in the water.Written January 16, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

A a family of 9 adults and a young teen, this is an annual family tradition.
