She provided everyone with multiple water bottles and made sure to take frequent breaks at sites of interest. Her instructions were easy to follow with regards to bike safety and she was able to keep our group of 6 (4 in our team plus another pair) together throughout the entire tour with no issues. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, regardless of their experience level as it can likely accommodate any rider with even just a basic knowledge and familiarity. The tour itself was relaxing, beautiful, and educational. We frequently stopped for historical and contemporary updates on the places we visited while traversing the city and islands. The fact that there are effectively no cars on the island itself really enhanced the experience and made it feel like being out for a serene Sunday bike ride with the family. We really appreciated that at each stop she already had a nice spot picked out to take group photos and helped position and arrange us for optimal configuration and angles. This was such a wonderful way to explore the Toronto Islands, I highly recommend this tour and our guide Mariana!

What could the tour guide provide for us that we could not get by just walking from store to store? What if there is too much history incorporated and it is boring? What if the food is too strange? Or too run of the mill? Fortunately, Shirley's tour ended up providing a good balance of everything. I left very knowledgeable about the history of the Kensington Market area and also with a very stuffed tummy. There are a lot of options in the Kensington Market and having a guide pick things out for your group that are tried and true allows for a larger variety of foods to try and less wasted money on things you should have passed on. The area merchants that we visited all seemed to have a close rapport with Shirley which was nice to see. Pretty much everyone on our tour (6 people) were foodies, too, which just added to great discussion and knowledge sharing.

The tour is about an hour which is the perfect amount of time for this area as it isn't huge. We had 4 other people with us so it was a pretty small tour. Our guide Caeli was great. She was enthusiastic and really had a passion for the city and it's history. She was half the fun of the tour. We learned a lot in a small amount of time. The tour ended with a couple of samples of chocolate from SOMA, which were incredible and led to us going back and purchasing some chocolates. There were also some beer samples included, and while we could have walked in and got samples on our own it was fun to do it with the group and to have Caeli's commentary while we sampled some of the different offerings. I would highly recommend the tour for anyone who is interested in history.

The narrator had great energy and you can tell she either really loved her job or she enjoyed telling customers the history of the Toronto waterfront.

We had also missed our 11am tour because we ran late in storing our luggage at a nearby storage locker and the staff person at the window had no issues rescheduling us for the 12pm tour. Amazing!

One heads up...the stairs down into the main seating area are extremely steep. It's only a few, and the railings are sturdy, but for someone with balance or mobility challenges this could be hard.

The rooms are cool and the info displayed for each zone is riveting. The best moment I had was being downstairs where the stables were and seeing Lady Pellatt's wedding dress. I talked with the museum attendant who shared an interest in sewing and we discussed clothing choices of the time. The only complaint is with the bathrooms. I got there when it opened and used the bathroom early on. I must know, why was there fecal particles on the toilet seat already? So my only critique is that the public bathrooms need to be cleaned better.
