About this Event

Explore Toronto’s Old Town and the Distillery District on a pay-what-you-feel winter walk that keeps you warm with smart indoor pauses and short outdoor hops. We start at Union Station (Front St. clock), glide past the Flatiron and St. Lawrence Market, and finish among the brick lanes and public art of the Distillery. Expect stories, photo tips, and a locals’ list you can use after the tour. Families welcome.

Length & pace (choose at checkout):

  • 60 min: Core route; ends at Distillery main square.
  • 90 min: Adds deeper Distillery stories + extra photo time.
  • 120 min+: Adds Riverdale Farm & park lookout (weather-dependent).
    We all start together; 60-min guests wrap at a scheduled finale point in the Distillery.

Cost: Pay-what-you-feel (tips for your guide). Cash · e-transfer · tap QR code
What’s included: Guiding, storytelling, photo help, post-tour DM with map pins.
Not included: Food/drinks, transit, admissions.

Meet point: Union Station—Front St. “Big Clock” (inside doors across from the Fairmont Royal York).
End point: Distillery District (Trinity St. & Gristmill Ln.).
Accessibility: Mostly flat; Distillery has cobblestones (we choose smoother crossings).
Weather plan: We run in light snow. In severe wind-chill/alerts we reorder for more indoor time or shorten to ~70–75 minutes (same spirit, same pay-what-you-feel).

Group size: Up to 18

Good to know:
Arrive 5 minutes early; we start on time. Bathrooms at Union Station & St. Lawrence during open hours. If Distillery timed entry applies on peak nights, guests arrange their own access.

After the tour: I’ll DM you a mini Google Map with warm cafés, markets, and local gems so you can keep exploring.
