How to Plan the Perfect Toronto Itinerary (1-4 Days + Tips from a Local)
"This two-hour tour is definitely something to do if you’re interested in art but if street art isn’t your thing, you might wanna give this a miss and head to St Lawrence Market instead. 1300: Lunch at Seven Lives"
"Whether you are a former Toronto Maple Leaf or more like Bambi on the ice, it is always a romantic choice to hold hands and attempt to stay upright on skates. Nathan Phillips Square is the perfect place to while away a romantic hour or two. Located right in front of City Hall and around the corner from the Eaton's Centre and popular restaurants, it is a great activity to sandwich between other downtown pursuits."
"Start your Toronto visit in the downtown core at Nathan Phillips Square. This public space is a popular gathering place for Torontonians. It is easily recognized by the gigantic Freedom Arches over the reflecting pool and the 3D TORONTO sign. Together with City Hall, they make an iconic landmark in the city worth visiting."
"Pull on some skates and go ice skating at Nathan Phillips Square. If you’re not an ice skater, hang around the square to lap up the winter wonderland atmosphere while you watch the skaters glide across the ice."
"If you love the waterfront as much as we do, Humber Bay Park may just become your new summer oasis. This narrow park located right on Toronto’s waterfront boasts six different biking trails, an open field for picnics and play, as well as its own off-leash area for your furry companions. Travel along its paved pathways during your morning run and watch the sunrise, embark on an afternoon hike while you watch Toronto’s wildlife cool off along the shore, or just simply unwind while you set sights on Toronto’s skyline from city’s west end."
"Humber Bay Park, created from two man-made peninsulas near Mimico Creek and Lake Ontario, is a popular recreation hub in Toronto. Park pursuits include bird-watching, biking, hiking, and photographing the CN Tower and Toronto skyline, as well as lounging at the sandy beach area and taking dogs to the off-leash park.More.

"This is another great waterfront green space in Humber Bay Shores. Located close to Colonel Samuel Smith Park just west of downtown Toronto, Humber Bay Park is divided by Mimico Creek, creating an East and West Park. It too offers nature opportunities along with skyline views of Toronto."
"For a rather freeing beach day, you’ll want to head to Hanlan’s Point Beach, a clothing optional area perfect for nudists or anyone looking to bare it all under the sun. Found on the western shores of the Toronto Islands, you’ll need to board the ferry to get here. Expect a bike trail, fire pit, volleyball and tennis courts, and a lighthouse to keep you entertained all day long."
"Probably best known for its “clothing optional” section, don’t let that scare you away from this beach. Hanlan’s Point Beach is perfect for your next getaway. Located on Toronto Island, you’ll have to take a short ferry ride to get there."
"Atai Bistro is Toronto’s newest French-Moroccan-inspired restaurant and offers a tantalizing menu that embraces Morrocco’s flavours and French cooking styles. The restaurant is located at 3047 Dundas Street West, in the Junction, and has a pop-up menu for residents to enjoy from the comfort of their own homes. The menu shares a unique take on regional Moroccan dishes using French cooking techniques with creative spice infusions."
"This cozy French bistro in the heart of Yorkville focuses on dishes from the South of France, and there are far worse things to focus on, in our opinion. Chabrol refers to the French practice of adding a splash of wine to the last spoonfuls of soup to draw out a meal (which is a genius idea that we are going to start incorporating into our own eating regimes). Expect cheeses, perfect sauces and succulent meats."
"In Yorkville, a favored destination for celebrities, petite Chabrol delivers grande French fare. The open kitchen provides both a savory kind of aromatherapy and a bit of theater for the diners."
"This tiny café is tucked into a laneway on Yorkville Avenue. As soon as you walk into Chabrol, something about it makes you want to lose track of time. Maybe it’s the floor to ceiling windows?"
"A cool and almost grungy hidden gem, Locals Only features an awesome menu of snacks, oysters and other gourmet pub-eats!. Located on King Street West their decor features an industrial vibe with custom neon lights and graffiti, not to mention a bathroom that everyone takes selfies in!. It’s the perfect place to start or end your night."
"This tour's first bus leaves from Yonge-Dundas Square and the pass is good for three consecutive days. Stay aboard for the full two-hour tour, or if you're itching to tackle Toronto , hop off at one of the 21 stops, which include many of Toronto's top attractions, such as the CN Tower, the Eaton Centre, Art Gallery of Ontario, Casa Loma and the Royal Ontario Museum. Consult with the guides for optimum planning and when the busses will be stopping at certain locations. Don't miss the boat tour at the Harbourfront, which is included in your ticket."
"The last area of the day is Dudas Square which is like a mini Times Square. Here you’ll find the Eaton Centre, the city’s largest mall and plenty of restaurants. Across from the Eaton Centre there are some restaurants a few storey’s up where you can grab a place on the patio and overlook all of the action in the square."
