Toronto Island Ferries takes you to Toronto Island Park which comprises of several islands, including Ward’s Island, Centre Island and Hanlan’s Point. We took the ferry to Centre Island which is more popular among tourists . The time taken by ferry to reach this picturesque location was around 15 min. We travelled on a weekday so it was not overly crowded. The ride is very reasonable,(Adult $9.11 , which kids / youth also get discount prices of circa 50/40 % respectively. You may book tickets online or buy on site.
The ferry rides gives you a beautiful view of downtown, CN centre, seaplanes landing on water etc. Before taking the ride, we bought coffee and had a great ride on top. park in itself is awesome . You are welcomed by seagulls, swans, peacocks( including white peacock), horses, mules etc. The park has many trees, some of them have typical maple leaves 🍁 (I loved these trees 🤩) and some which are exactly like Christmas tree(🎄). Lots of fun activities and rides for kids, though some rides for day visitors are extremely expensive. There are many lakes as well and stand for watching migratory birds. Many restaurants allow you to have delicious meals while on the island. Overall a very well spent day.

The Toronto zoo is a really nice place to spend time in nature. We went there with family and had a great time. We actually started with a nice cheese pizza at the first stop of the hop on- hop off 😉. The exhibits of animals were really nice. One sad thing was to see animals in confinement do not augur well for me 😢. But the saving grace was that animals were taken well care of .
The Hop On- Hop Off train rides to each of the sections were really good. They explained the family chain of animals and the history of the zoo which was fabulous. Overall a very well spent day.

We visited the restaurant while on our way back from a long drive and were hungry. However I must say that the place really enchanted us. We ordered Veg dishes and non veg dishes and Biryani. The food tasted mind-blowing. Even better than some of the good restaurants in India. The taste was real authentic and spot on. The service of the team was good and so was the ambience. One small nag was that whenever sizzlers were being brought in for guests, the whole of the hall was getting filled with the smoked . Other than that everything else was 5 star.
