Hotels near Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport - YTZ, Toronto

Toronto was a wonderful city to visit. We did a Hop-on Hop-off tour to see major landmarks in the city. We did a day trip to Niagara Falls and ate dinner at the top of the Sheraton with a wonderful view. We ate dinner at the top of the CN Tower. All exciting experiences.

Extremely nice people, Canadians. Recent immigrants can do a lot better in customer service and friendliness, they should be happy to live in such a great country, but many (esp. from Eastern European and Asian) fail, because not fully canadianized. Fortunately, there are exceptions, like the Chinese Scotiabank bank manager on Dundas and Spadina. He was efficient, helpfull, understanding and effective. He was the best embassador of Canada to me and made my day.

Toronto is a relaxing place. There are a ton of food options and the cuisines are very multicultural. There are food halls everywhere. There is a small waterfront and park, and several sites including museums. It is close to Niagara Falls.

I really enjoyed my time in Toronto, but I have to say Roger’s Stadium (not to be confused with Roger’s Centre) was a huge disappointment. Getting there was a trek, and the uneven walking path was rough—my wife even twisted her ankle. The stadium itself didn’t feel sturdy at all, swaying uncomfortably, and the overall organization left a lot to be desired. For example, people weren’t allowed to get to their seats because of “wind concerns,” which only made me worry more about how the structure was built. (The show was rescheduled and we were set to see our band at 7:20, yet they weren't letting us in at that time, and they wouldn't even tell us why.) Having been to Woodstock ’99, I can honestly say this place gave me the same uneasy feeling—like an accident waiting to happen. That said, the rest of the trip was wonderful. We had a beautiful stroll through Edward’s Gardens, enjoyed the absolute best onion rings ever at Rosie’s Burgers (their shakes are amazing too!), and had a great breakfast at Stacked Pancakes in Ontario. I’d gladly come back to Toronto again—just never for a concert at Roger’s Stadium.

There is so much to see and do, and coming from a UK city, I felt rather small in the city of Toronto. We.made the CNE which was vast and so.much to see and do at it, plus (unknowingly) were there for the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) and saw some film stars up close. Visited the zoo, aquarium and CN Tower using the CityPass (worth every penny). Had food at Vagabonds which was lovely. The traffic is horrendous though, so research getting around as some places u need to travel more than a walking distance to get to. We wne to Niagara as well, did the lady of the mist boat trip and got the pass to do stuff on the strip. Also had food at the rainforest place which is great for kids x

Brilliant city with lots of things to do. It's a very walkable city. We used public transport and it was good as well. You can buy a day ticket for the subway and trams, which is handy. Eating out isn't that expensive but if you're coeliac you will struggle. I would recommend the Wendy's for a cheap, gluten free salad. We also ate at the CN Tower and they were able to give me a decent, gluten free meal. You will smell lots of cannabis while walking around the city as it's legal in Canada, but don't let this put you off. The city seems safe enough and the people are polite and friendly, on the whole. We will definitely be back.
