We spent a week in Toronto in October, and the CN Tower, the islands and the Distillery District left us wanting to go back. This page gathers our selection of Toronto activities to book on GetYourGuide: the platform’s top-rated in the city — several of them also feature in our Toronto guide — sorted, rated, and with the caveats written out when there are any.

🏙️ The big classics

The ones that go on a first-visit list: the tower, the aquarium, the big museum and the hockey shrine.

Toronto is easy without a car: by boat, by bike, on foot — and while eating.

🎭 What about events?

Festivals, shows, markets: for dates and everything coming up in Toronto, our What’s On in Toronto tool lists events month by month. The list there is complete and free — it will never be monetized; this page is only for booking the activities around them.

How we choose: ratings and review counts observed on GetYourGuide on October 31, 2026; “from” prices, per person, in Canadian dollars, varying with the date and options you pick. The selection is based on traveller reviews; when a product has a real caveat (few reviews, a lower rating), we write it instead of hiding it. Links are checked every month; a product that closes or declines leaves the page.
