Muddy York Walking Tours is a company dedicated to bringing Toronto's past back to life in fun and exciting ways. Too often, history - especially Canadian history - is presented as being a dry and boring subject. Not for us! We believe that exploring our city's past is a fun and exciting way to spend a few hours, whether you are a visitor to our city, or a life long resident. We offer several tours which try to present the past as an authentic playground for those who want to know how the modern city of Toronto came to be. www.muddyyorktours.com
Genova Tours specializes in personal walking tours of Toronto for individuals and small groups. Your guide will be a storyteller and historian with intimate knowledge of Toronto. You’ll learn more about Toronto than a Torontonian. The difference of your visiting on your own or taking a Genova Tour is the difference between a silent film and today's films with colour and sound. We make Toronto come alive. www.genovatours.com
