Love Stories of the Humber | Walking Tour

Love long walks on the beach? Try a romantic stroll along the romantic boardwalk of the Humber River, while listening to true stories of love and loss throughout the history of Toronto.

Take in the beautiful city lights at dusk with accompanying live music as you listen to stories from acclaimed author, historian, and storyteller extraordinaire. Adam Bunch will share tales of heartbreaking farewells, torrid affairs, and long-lasting romance.

Hear about the legacy of two artists who challenged the city’s attitudes toward same-sex relationships, the war-time romance behind Toronto’s most notorious highway, a French-Canadian fur trader’s four weddings, and many more.

On a backdrop of picturesque shoreline views, learn about how the landscape of the Humber has been shaped by thousands of years of people falling in love.
