The original Tour Guys walking tour of Toronto, and our most popular walk, this stroll takes you from Union Station to City Hall, while passing under, around, and through some of the most spectacular buildings in the city. Majestic bank lobbies, wide concrete plazas, and looming glass and steel office towers make up much of what people think of when Toronto comes to mind.

The last stops will compare Toronto's current City Hall with the previous Old City Hall next door. This tour will leave you with a greater appreciation for 'Canada's downtown'.

Be sure to tip your guide at the end of the tour. By charging only a booking fee, we leave it up to our guests to pay the guide what they feel the tour is worth. The average tip is $10 per person, some pay much more.
