Join us on an extraordinary culinary journey through the heart of Toronto with our “Taste of Toronto” food tour. Immerse yourself in the city’s vibrant culture, diverse neighborhoods, and tantalizing cuisines while discovering hidden gems and iconic landmarks.
The tour will bring you to several photo-worthy locations such as Graffiti Alley, a kaleidoscope of street art where creativity meets urban charm. As we wander through this colorful outdoor gallery, indulge in a mouthwatering street food delight from a local restaurant.
Venture into the bustling streets of Kensington Market, a bohemian enclave known for its quirky shops and multicultural offerings. Toronto’s largest outdoor market offers a glimpse into the history of Toronto as different waves of immigration all leave a taste of their food culture in the market. Dive into the rich tapestry of flavors that define Toronto’s melting pot of cultures.
No trip is Toronto complete without a visit to The Distillery District, a historic area and the former home of Gooderham and Worts, transformed into a haven for artists, artisans, and food connoisseurs. Toronto’s most historically preserved area is also often the grounds for major Hollywood movies.
Venturing into the vibrant district of King West, immerse yourself in the energetic atmosphere and trendy vibes in one of Toronto’s hottest neighbourhoods. Traverse through this chic neighborhood while relishing the unique flavors that define King West’s culinary landscape.
But the adventure doesn’t end there. We’ll rendezvous at a secret location, an exclusive spot reserved for our tour group. Share stories and laughter as we relish in a curated selection of signature artisan foods that highlight Toronto’s culinary prowess. Immerse yourself in the convivial atmosphere and make unforgettable memories with fellow food enthusiasts.
