World-class theatre, shopping, restaurants and amazing natural wonders all in one clean, friendly city…that’s Toronto for you. As Canada’s most populous city, Toronto is one giant melting pot of cultures, flavours and activities. Culture vultures and history buffs can soak up the buzz in the city’s historic old town and visit one of the many top museums, while outdoor-lovers can relax at the nearby Toronto Islands or take a day trip to the mighty Niagara Falls. Whichever your interest, there will be a tour that Chan Brothers Travel Private Tours can customised for you.  
Toronto’s very own camelot
Casa Loma will take you to the bygone Edwardian era of European splendour and elegance where knights roamed in secret passageways and underground tunnels in grand castles. The former private home of Canadian businessman Sir Henry Pellatt, Casa Loma, is the largest full-size castle in North America complete with elaborately decorated suites, towers, stables, estate gardens and an 800-foot tunnel. Sir Henry Pellatt was a prominent Canadian businessman in the early 20^th century who made a number of significant contributions to Canada, including building this majestic castle estate on a hill overlooking the city. Explore the secret passageways, ornate sculptures and fountains in the gardens as well as the art pieces and unique architectural features which when they are all put together, tell the story of Sir Pellatt’s life and a slice of Toronto’s history. The 800-feet tunnel which connects the stables and carriage house to the castle also features an exhibit on “Toronto’s Dark Side” with photographs of the Prohibition and The Great Toronto Fire, among other important events in Toronto’s dark past. Don’t leave before taking in the panoramic views of the city from the top of one of the towers.


A taste of one of the world’s best markets
Located in historical old town Toronto, the St. Lawrence Market is one of the city’s institutions and also dubbed as one of the best markets in the world. The market is housed in a massive 19^th century brick building with a large selection of fresh produce and gourmet foods, restaurants, pubs and retail shops. From locally grown fresh produce to gourmet flavours and organic health foods, foodies can literally eat their hearts out. Throughout the year, the market also hosts several events that have become mainstays in the local calendar – Woofstock, the Strawberry Social Festival, and Buskerfest: The Toronto International Street Performers Festival. To grasp the city’s origins, explore the surrounding neighbourhoods while you’re here: the heritage architecture of the original 10 blocks of York and St. James Cathedral, the arts and culture in the Distillery District, or the hip and innovative designs in the King East Design District. Each district has a unique character and charm that is guaranteed to win you over.   


Toronto Islands
If you’re tired from the hustle and bustle of the “big city” in downtown Toronto, make a day trip to the Toronto Islands where there is a beautiful view of Lake Ontario on one side and the city skyline on the other. Only a short ferry ride from the city centre, these islands are a perfect complement to the city with its myriad of activities and attractions, its laidback atmosphere and amazing scenery. Take full advantage of the pollution-free air (no car is allowed here) and go for a nice stroll, ride a bike or picnic on the beach. For some family fun, visit one of the many attractions on the islands: the Centreville Amusement Park, Gibraltar Point Lighthouse and Franklin Children’s Garden.
