3,319 reviews

For many visitors to Toronto, this needle-like telecommunications tower—often seen from the airplane window—is their first glimpse of the city. When completed in 1976, the CN Tower was the tallest free-standing structure in the Western Hemisphere. Though it no longer holds that title, it is still the tallest tower in Canada, and the spectacular views from its observation decks are second to none.

Highly recommend this tour
We were really lucky because our family were the only ones on this tour. Our guide is from South Africa but I don't wanna misspell his name. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. We enjoyed this tour immensely and the weather was just about right.

Good for highlights when you’re short on time
This was fun. I only had a short time after the work day and I was able to see some highlights of the city and get a local’s perspective. It was raining but that didn’t put a damper on things.
