Toronto’s Best Neighborhoods by Bike with a Local Guide

About this experience

Pedal through downtown Toronto on a small-group bike tour that covers more ground than walking, with a local guide sharing stories most visitors never hear.

In three hours, you'll ride past major landmarks including the Rogers Centre and the Hockey Hall of Fame, and hear about the CN Tower's history and significance to the skyline. The route continues past the Flatiron Building and Berczy Park's Dog Fountain, through the world-famous Graffiti Alley, past the University of Toronto campus, and into the bohemian streets of Kensington Market. You'll take a breather at Riverdale Park for the city's best skyline photo op before finishing with cobblestones and history in the Distillery District.

Capped at 12 riders, this tour keeps things personal. Your guide sets the pace and shares the kind of local insight you won't find in a guidebook. Toonie Tours has guided over 35,000 travelers since 2018 and is recommended by Destination Toronto and Ontario Tourism.
