Discovering Canada's Biggest City! (First Impressions of Toronto, Canada) 🇨🇦
Our first time back in Toronto after 5 years abroad!
Whenever we travel, we always say that we are from Toronto.
But we actually live outside of the city, and don't really go to Toronto that often.
So it was interesting to be back to get a first impressions after so many years away.
Toronto has changed! On this video, we highlighted the bad and good of Toronto.
Check out our vlog as we tour downtown Toronto, and visited Toronto's most famous tourist attractions: CN Tower, Rogers Centre (home of the Toronto Blue Jays), Steam Whistle Brewery, Nathan Phillips Square, Toronto City Hall, Dundas Square, Little Canada, and Toronto Waterfront.
We hope you get some useful tips and inspiration of the best things to do in Toronto, the world's most multicultural city.

I have a deep affection for Toronto. Originally from Rio, I've called Toronto home for five years now. There are countless activities to enjoy here, and I've had the pleasure of meeting many wonderful people. Thank you, Canadians, for your kindness. ♥️
Turtle Island is what First Nations’ people call the American continent floating on the earth, so that’s what the symbol in the circle refers to.
Thanks for the shout out. Glad you enjoyed it
You captured the downtown well guys. We really enjoyed Little Canada. Keep safe, healthy and happy.
Can't wait, just moved to Newfoundland last year. Gimme a shout when you're here.. good video guys.
What a wonderful city.
Great memories for me. Private High school in Toronto for Grade 12 & 13, then to Guelph university. From my apartment at Wellesley St, l could see the CNTower. I remember going to Central island twice with my friends & Ontario place.
Im sooooooo glad I subscribed! As a Finnish person there has always been something about Canada that intrigued me, but now seeing it more from you in KZread, I REALLY want to visit!
Much needed video since everyone is saying Toronto is a not such a great city these days. Its still a beautiful place. gereat video
Wow, that is a beautiful big city. Much love from Finland!
The tourists would be doing exactly what you're both are doing, enjoying the sights and sounds of Toronto. You have your pick of hundreds of restaurants around Toronto with cuisine from around the world. I am a Torontorian myself born and raised in the east end of Toronto spent my early childhood in Regent Park and then my adult years in the west end of Toronto in Etobicoke. 😊
Haven’t been visiting Canada for 15 years! Thanks for the update!
Little canada is the cutest little place.... we enjoyed it so much
Interesting Toronto places... Casaloma, Aquarium, shark feeding restaurant, Urban exploring(Gargantua), The Path(probably the longest mall in Canada), Lake cruise, Do a public speech in a local university to encourage young people to explore the world before they get too old.
YES!!!!!!! so excited for your upcoming Canada vlogs especially the east coast. Drive along the Cabot trail in Cape Breton Nova Scotia guys! yes unfortunately lots of sketchy activities going on in Toronto especially on TTC.

Cabot Trail is my mom’s favorite. We have family in PEI.
Great video as always, Steve lvana. Toronto is beautiful. Thanks a bunch for sharing.
Looking forward to your next adventures in Canada - especially Québec! I'm sure that bus will be put to good use very soon.
hi guys welcome to my hometown toronto i hope you guys have a pleasant and a wonderful time here 😃🍁❤
Get to Quebec City. You’re going to love it. I’m from Maine so it was just a six hour drive. The history, the food, the sites are amazing.
I love Toronto and and Steam Whistle is one of my favorite place/beer over there beside the other place ...The Keg ....and I am coming all away form Reno, NV !!! ...la fel de mult cum in mi place Roata din Cluj !!!
I can tell you, a lot of tourists like to shop. So shopping in Toronto is another thing to talk about. Yorkdale Mall, the new The Well, Distillery district, Eaton Center all good places for shopping.

@@JetLagWarriors must try: Xiang Zi Hot Pot in Markham. Dragon Legend Buffet in Markham Sushi legend AYCE in Scarborough The Perfect Restaurant in Scarborough for Dim Sum. Linh Anh Vietnamese restaurant. The best pho I ever had in the GTA and I have had pho all over southern Ontario in the past 3 decades. First Markham Place Mall in Markham on HWY 7. That food court has one of the most authentic HK Chinese BBQ spot. Always line ups on weekends and during supper hours.
I visited the new city hall site with my parents when there was nothing there but a sign that read: "Site of the New Toronto City Hall & Civic Square. Design of Viljo Revel Selected in World Wide Competition". Transcribed from a photograph that I have of me standing in front of the sign with my mother. Viljo Revel was a Finn.
You did a good job in avoiding all the unhoused people, panhandlers, and tent encampments all over downtown Toronto. Well done!
I would be really interested seeing Arctic Canada in the winter. I assume it is somewhat similar to Lapland of Finland but no one talks about Arctic Canada
it's been a while.. a long while (sorry guys~) since i last watch your vids. so happy to see Ivana's baby bump. happy happy happy happy happy. can't wait til 31/8 and say hello to lil mitch or lil merdeka. 😁
My wife and I went to Toronto soon after we met in 2008. Also saw the Niagara falls and went to a baseball game for the first (and only so far) time. Really liked the city. We stayed with relatives in Oakville and also visited Mississauga. We are looking forward to going back some time now that our daughter is old enough to go with us. By the way did you know that the new city hall was designed by a Finn called Viljo Revell? Greeting from Finland 👋
Go to the Scarborough Bluffs, quiet there! :)
" 'Turtle Island' is the name for the lands now known as North and Central America " thus the turtle in the Toronto O .
Absolutely beautiful. 💙
Toronto is one busy city!!❤
I am a big fan of yours. I am a Pakistani Canadian living in Mississauga. I think we need to make a video of the rent ridgeway food plaza
clean version of New York City. Toronto is. :)
You guys should visit the Rom AGO Grange House Campbell house McKenzie house center island Ontario place just to name a few places.. how is the renovation on your truck van coming along ? Will there be any videos on it?
I love Toronto! ❤❤
Indigenous people referred to North America as Turtle Island in the past.

Thanks for this
They come for all the food. Lots of foodies. Amazing restaurants though not cheap
As a Dane, I can only say that I really like Toronto. The multicultural scene is really good, with some fantastic food. The Chinese/Vietnamese part of the city is amazing to eat at. Other than my angry ex-girlfriend from Brampton, I can not think of anything I dislike about Toronto 🙂
You livinig great land ❤️
Been here over 25 years ....
You gestured towards Scarborough when you said you were born in Mississauga. How dare. XD
Hope that we would be able to go there when our cousin graduates ❤

Your country is ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gotta do GRAFFITI ALLEY! It’s a great city for tourism. You showed downtown but didn’t go in the Eaton Centre, Hockey Hall of Fame, CNE, or up to Yorkville for the posh boutiques and restaurants. There’s Kew (or Woodbine)beach in the east end + Sunnyside & Cherry beach, High Park, Centre Island with amusement rides, beaches and picnic park areas, just outside the north end there’s Canada’s Wonderland, the beauty of Union Station I could go on & on there are so many unique places and things to see and do I don’t understand why you’d say it’s not a good tourist destination.
Toronto , whats was my ice hockey idol when I was in seven yers old , whats is name , I dont remember from Toronto, sorry .Wayne Gretsky and many others idols. I remember. But via Montreal we flight from LAX ,Montreal, Helsinki
things are costly here and people are getting poor as I live north of it
You live in Toronto. You should go to the tourism office and find out all the amazing things there are to see and do in Toronto. :)
Let us know if you come to Newfoundland, I am in the capital.
Steve! What you think about the tournament 4 Nation face off at feb 2025. Will you watch any of the games live? Ok now I Will watch your video. 🙂
A friend told me that when visiting Toronto to get the CityPass to see the 5 top things Maybe you should of invested in this package? Why didn;t you show Ripleys Aquarium it was across from Whistlers? Looking forward to your East coast adventures
Can't wait to see you in the new formula 3❤❤❤.
Why I live here in Finland 😬🫤☺️😅🤣
Toronto is singapore in winter
❤❤❤🎉
Fortunately you guys came back home . I love Toronto. I guess you guys have been travelling too much.😂 Take a rest and enjoy your first baby
go toronto!
The real soul of Toronto is in the ethnic neighborhoods, little Italy, Danforth, Richmond Hill, and dare I say Pacific Mall ? LOL , nah, go outside of Toronto to see the small towns or the Algonquin.
🇨🇦
You won't miss anything last 5 years !
Iam an hour and half away in Peterborough love visiting the city but couldnt stand living in Toronto. Not sure why people do unless you have money.
The original people called Canada Turtle Island. That's why there's a turtle in the letter O.
They just renamed Dundus I think
Miniature cities, especially Niagara's detailed replicas, are sick for pre-visiting the real spots!
Toronru
Tourists don't know the reality 😧😧😧😨😨😨😬😬😬☠☠☠💀💀💀... Don't get me wrong..Toronto is fun... yep it's a fun place to enjoy, there's alot of things to do and to see specialy when you are in vacation in summer time of corse!!!! My advise.. stay away and never come here to live and work!!!! It's a nightmare
Are you Toronto bugs eaters? :)
Been going to TO , for a 3 day stay, once a year, for the past 12 yrs. However, I`ve notice the city, been the greatest city, to a shit hole city in the last 4 yrs. What happened? O, ya, gun crime, stabbings, car jackins, home vasions, New mayor, Chow, changing the name of young and dundas square, really!! Homeless encampments, and on and on. Tourists beware.
Wheres all the druggys in dt toronto, at little canada.

Welcome to Toronto, its overpriced, and Torontonians believe in their own minds they are centre of the universe, or maybe just Canada 😂
