Best Tours & activities in Toronto (2026)

Toronto's tours range from food walks to sailing ships. The Culinary Adventure Co., a family-owned company operating since 2011, runs small-group food tours of St. Lawrence Market, with the peameal bacon sandwich, cheeses and smoked salmon, as well as walks in Chinatown and Kensington Market, King West, Roncesvalles Village and Little India. Its early-morning VIP tour of the market is limited to six guests. On the water, Great Lakes Schooner Company sails the Kajama, a three-masted schooner launched in Germany in 1930, on day and evening trips from the downtown harbourfront, and passengers can help hoist the sails.

For an overview of the city, City Sightseeing Toronto runs hop-on hop-off double-decker buses with 13 stops and a 45-minute harbour and islands cruise, and its guided Niagara Falls day tour, with hotel pickup and a winery stop in Niagara-on-the-Lake, is the easiest way to see the falls without a car. Toronto Bicycle Tours leads easy rides downtown and on the car-free Toronto Islands, with bikes and helmets included, and Heritage Toronto runs more than 60 walking tours and experiences between May and November. Book food and bike tours ahead in summer, and check seasonal schedules for sailing and heritage walks.
