Planning your first trip to Toronto? There are a few things that are good to know before you start filling up the itinerary.
And you probably don't need a car. Three days gives you enough time for a solid first visit (although four or five gives you room to explore beyond downtown). And when you're choosing where to stay, don't automatically default to the Financial District just because it's central. The Annex, King West, Leslieville and other neighbourhoods can give you a very different experience of the city.
Save this one for when you start planning.
