Cheap Flights to Toronto, Canada
Why visit Toronto?
Toronto does not have the natural beauty of Vancouver, nor the historical heft of Montreal, but Toronto, sitting on the banks of Ontario has a reputation as one of Canada’s greatest cities. With a culinary scene that leaves many cities in its dust, a series of international festivals, summer times by the lake, a buzzing nightlife, and a great shopping scene, Toronto’s personality and charm sells itself.
Things to do in Toronto
Start by heading to the CN Tower, a staple of the Toronto city skyline, but an attraction because of its viewing deck, where visitors can see some of the best aspects of the city, and when the sky is clear, out to Niagara Falls.
It is also worth spending some time visiting the impressive museums and galleries. Of particular note, are the Ontario Science Centre and the Royal Ontario Museum, the first being a wonderful science museum that has lots of interactive displays that are family friendly, and the second holding extensive collections covering the indigenous peoples of Ontario, world culture exhibitions, and natural history galleries, both of which make for educational and fun days out.
For something a little unique, visit Casa Loma, a building conceived and paid for by Sir Henry Pellatt, an unconventional millionaire’s vanity project that resulted in a charming Medieval-style castle with all sorts of oddities, such as secret passages, tunnels and towers, all of which can be accessed, as the Casa Loma is now a museum.
If you want to take advantage of the city’s shopping and restaurants, then head to the Eaton Center, which has a host of domestic and international brands for shopping, but also a whole host of restaurants, cafes and bars you can relax in.
