to grab tickets to a cultural spectacle hosted at the Four Seasons Centre, just blocks from the tower, and Toronto’s best restaurants and hotels. Designed by the award-winning local fi rm Diamond Schmitt Architects, the Centre boasts ideal sightlines and acoustics for ballet and opera performances, and follows in the tradition of world-renowned cultural institutions such as the Sydney Opera House. Opened in 2006, it was the fi rst theater in Canada built speci fi cally for opera and ballet performances, and is home to the Canadian Opera Company and the National Ballet of Canada, making it a must-see destination. Finally, because this is Canada, after all, a tour of the Hockey Hall of Fame is all but mandatory, as is an excursion to the world-class Royal Ontario Museum, which features artifacts spanning the whole of human history.

Perched on the northwestern shores of Lake Ontario, just under a two-hour drive from Niagara Falls, Toronto has long stood as a cosmopolitan ambassador for Canada. Outdoor adventures and, of course, hockey abound in the remarkably beautiful area. But today, Toronto, with its thriving art scene and diverse population, also assumes the mantle of a truly international metropolis. Once the tallest freestanding structure in the world, the CN Tower climbs above Toronto’s Entertainment District to a height of over 1,800 ft, a ff ording views of the Harbourfront Centre to the south and the city’s sprawling skyline to the north. Guests looking for more than a vista can book an EdgeWalk, which hooks guests to the tower’s outer catwalk for the world’s tallest 360-degree, hands-free walk.
