Toronto Walking Tour: The Sign, Queen's Park, U of T and the ROM
Overview
Start your trip with a local who knows Toronto's stories. Meet at the Toronto sign in Nathan Phillips Square, snap your photos, and pass City Hall, built on the site of The Ward, where generations of newcomers first made Toronto home.
Head north to Queen's Park, the pink sandstone home of Ontario's legislature since 1893. Then step onto the University of Toronto campus to see Convocation Hall and Soldiers' Tower, and hear how insulin was discovered here, a breakthrough that won a Nobel Prize. You'll also hear about Edward Rogers Sr., whose 1925 invention let radios run without batteries.
Finish along the leafy Philosopher's Walk, past Koerner Hall, at the Royal Ontario Museum, steps from Yorkville and the subway.
With groups of 15 or fewer, you can ask all the questions you like, and your guide will share favorite spots for the rest of your trip.
