Truly a hip neighbourhood worth exploring! - Scott was an excellent guide. He's very knowledgeable about the history of the area and great places to eat. The food options were delicious and unique, and he's flexible to customizing the tour to individual preferences /restrictions. The best part was the casual/intimate vibe, Scott took the time to get to know us on a more personal level and we weren't rushed at all. He also pointed out additional shops/restaurants of interest that are unique to the area. Thank you for an excellent tour!

Great neighborhood with great food. - My wife and I had the pleasure to meet Scott and Dave on Sunday sept 12th. They made us feel comfortable right away and were easy to connect with. For some of you history buffs, this tour will be a real treat. I loved the fact that they give you some foods options. We were amazed by the food quality and the local shop owners hospitality. It definitely felt like we were just hanging out with our friends. I highly recommend this tour to anyone including people living in the GTA. My wife and I live in Toronto for most of our lives but we realize how little we knew about the junction.
Thank you Scott and Dave for the amazing experience!!!

awesome food and walk tour experience - We enjoyed the tour very much. The junction is a cool area to explore and not as busy as some of the more touristy areas of Toronto. We enjoyed the food and the history while we walked around!
