Market to Market - Toronto Half Day Walking Tour

Join me on an experiential walk that'll entice your senses, please the eyes and rumble the belly. We'll gather at St. Lawrence Market, one of the oldest "covered markets" in North America and one of the best in the world, as voted by National Geographic magazine. It hides one of the city's best kept secrets: a free Toronto museum in a heritage building! This tour is the best possible way to experience the city on a personal level. We'll talk about food and how it unites us, as well as what kind of flavour influences you can see in Canada, and specifically in Toronto. You'll also get a chance to grab some coffee and a snack before moving along Front Street with me. Get ready to pass by some of Toronto's best restaurants, fantastic architecture, and public art. I'll be sure to tell you a story about public parks and see if you can find a "real life" Easter Egg, among many other things we'll see making a few stops along the way. We'll cover about 4 km (2. 5 miles) with many stops on mostly flat pavement.
