Your city. Your pace. Your ride.
Experience Toronto with the flexibility to build your day around the places and activities that matter to you. Canadawn’s Explore Toronto by the Hour service offers a convenient way to arrange transportation for sightseeing, shopping, dining, business appointments, and outings with family or friends.
Instead of planning separate journeys for every stop, request an hourly booking that fits your schedule. Choose a focused visit to a few favourite locations or allow more time for a wider city experience.
