Shane's Favorite Spots in Toronto

Why choose this Toronto tour ?

I have lived in Toronto for 24+ years and I really enjoy showing people around the city. This specific tour focuses on a few of my fav areas in ‘The Six’! During this tour, you’ll have the chance to see some cool neighbourhoods, interesting street art, a number of places to grab snacks,drinks,coffee, and, yes, great spots to capture pics! We’ll start at Sankofa Square (a.k.a. Yonge and Dundas Square) and we’ll finish in Kensington Market.
I usually time time things so we finish at a bar or cafe where we can have a post-tour beer or coffee.

Important:
If you enjoy tours packed with historical information and facts, this isn’t the tour for you.
If you want to see cool things, explore interesting pockets of the city, and find out about the city’s many great coffee spots,bars,resto’s, patios, craft beer spots, this is the tour for you.

What makes Shane’s Favorite Spots in Toronto a unique experience ?

Our tour will commence here at Sankofa Square (a.k.a. Yonge and Dundas Square).

We’ll make a short stop at this wonderful park to take some pics, and check out the popular Berczy Park ‘Dog Fountain’.

You’ll have a chance to see one of the most popular buildings, often used to showcase Toronto in promotional ad’s. Bonus – There’s a beautiful mural that we’ll check out too. 🙂

During our tour, you’ll have a chance to have a quick walk-through of this popular tourist attraction to grab a quick snack, drink, coffee and/or take some pics.

After we check out St Lawrence Market, you’ll have the chance to see a special work of art by street artist Banksy.

If you like architecture that mixes old and new, you will love our short visit to Brookfield Place as it’s one of the coolest interior designs in the city!

During our tour, will pass by one of the city’s other popular attractions, the Toronto Sign located near City Hall.

If you’re visiting Toronto, a ‘must-see’ is Queen Street West which has a number of cool shops, resto’s, bar’s, cafe’s, etc. This part of the tour will give you a glimpse into places to grab a meal and/or drink when our tour wraps up or perhaps the following day if you have extra time to explore.

I don’t want to say too much but you’ll get a chance to see for yourself why I like this area so much! Hint: If you like street art too, you’ll enjoy this part of the tour. 🙂
