    The tour guide was knowledgeable and provided interesting facts about the history of the harbor and the buildings around it. The boat was clean and comfortable, and we had a great view of the city skyline and the boats passing by. The highlight of the tour was definitely the views of the CN Tower and Rogers Skydome. It was amazing to see these iconic landmarks up close from the water. The tour also took us past some of the industrial sites of the harbor, including the sugar mills, which was really interesting to see. Overall, the 60-Minute Sightseeing Harbour Tour was a great way to see the city from a different perspective. It was a relaxing and enjoyable experience that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Toronto.

    This place is a total good vibe hangout place especially during summer you can sleep walk and take sun bath ! There is the Toronto island opposite end and you can take a local sea cab or a taxi to get there and get a different view of Toronto City!

    It was a wonderful location for docking. We hired a cruise for one night and ended up happily enjoying in there. That was a great memory though.

    Lots of space if you visit in the morning. Very chill and relaxing place to get a view of the vast lake, sail boats, water taxis islands, and planes taking off and landing. The building itself has Tims and a deli/cheese grocery store and nice washrooms. Very convenient. Lots of restaurants and smaller eateries around the area.

    Took visitors here June 21st and really enjoyed ourselves. Wasn't crowded as it was a Wednesday. Really good for walking around and having a break at one of the restaurants and we also picked up some Delicious bread and pastries from Farm Boy. πŸ˜‹ Was indigenous week so we watched the singers and dancing was quite an experience. My sister's got to see real Indigenous peoples dressed in there beautiful clothing. You can catch the water taxi here to go to the islands ..only $12 each way . Better than lining up for the Ferry. The boat tours were sold out so couldn't go on a harbour cruise. Also a Cannabis store as it's legally regulated to sell . Great for picture taking πŸ‘

    Only took a couple of decades for the waterfront to start taking shape. It's still not there yet but much improved with interesting public art, the wave decks, amphitheaters, welcoming boardwalks that are connected. They really need to do something about bike path separation from the sidewalks though, it's good that it's separated from the street but then now it's bikes contending with pedestrians as the signs while marked aren't the most visible and you've got bikers going a mile a minute. Best to look both ways when crossing not for cars but for crazy bikes!

    The best cultural gem located on the waterfront in Toronto. Visit the Queen's Quay mall, the premier dance centre, a glass studio, galleries, a concert stage, the music garden, etc... There are always festivals and exhibits going on. It is open all year round seven days a week. It's a 10 acres large strip that is not to be missed. Check their website for the latest events. Most events are free.

    A classic Toronto spot with a fantastic backdrop for photos! We shot an engagement shoot here near the docks earlier this year which turned out amazing. Great view of the lake and plenty of different spots which allow for a variety of shots. Whether you are looking to take photos or just have an afternoon stroll the harbourfront is great. Always scenic and right next to downtown making it very accessible.

    Harbourfront is most popular with a bay side and beach ambience. Good vibe and happening place anytime if the day between Spring (April) to Summer end (September) but is never out of views, plane landing sights, public benches and filled with people not to feel left alone.

    Toronto Harbourfront is one of the most beautiful places in the city of Toronto which is always thronged with tourists. Right in front of it is the busiest area of ​​downtown Toronto with many tourist attractions. Nearby is Union Station, which connects the Greater Toronto Area to the rest of the country by rail.

    Okay Harbourfront, i just spent the day with you and i gotta say, theres not much to you. Tourists, its nice to walk around, grab a bite, and if you're lucky, catch an outdoor concert, but stay away if it isnt the weekend. During the summer months, there are tents with little shops and junk food set up in the big, open spaces, but during the week, they are spaces, big and open and thats it. Its not over-crowded so a walk along the water is pleasant, but there isnt much to see or do, when compared to the grand metropolitan playground that is the rest of Toronto right behind it. You can take a boat ride. That could be fun! Theres a gyro place called Alexandros, its tiny and the seagulls there have evolved into sentient, hyper-aggressive beings, but if you see it there on the south side of Queens Quay, and its open (11am to midnight... i always miss it), stop everything immediately, leave whoever you are with, mid-conversation if necessary, and just go. Go get one. Thank me after. Be prepared to battle seagulls.
