Day by day

Day 1: Arrival in Toronto. Straight after arrival the CN Tower draws the eye. The glass floor in the viewing area makes children giggle or tingle, so plan the ascent for a clear day. If you are tired, stroll through the park area at the foot of the tower instead. Reserve the ticket in advance to shorten the wait. You can have dinner in the nearby harbour district.

Day 2: Ripley's Aquarium of Canada. Today your interests split: Canada's Wonderland tempts with roller coasters and a water park, ideal for older children. Younger children are better off at Ripley's Aquarium of Canada, where a tunnel leads beneath sharks and rays. Choose one of the two places if energy is limited. At the aquarium there are plenty of benches for breaks.

Day 3: Royal Ontario Museum. The Royal Ontario Museum looks like a crystal building of glass and steel, and inside dinosaur skeletons wait that children will not let go of. Allow enough time, including a break in the café. Younger guests love the bat cave and the minerals. Afterwards you stroll through the university district, which has small green spaces for resting.

Day 4: Toronto Zoo. Casa Loma looks like a fairytale castle in the middle of the city, with towers, secret passages and a tunnel to the stable. Children explore it with an explorer's eye. In the afternoon you drive to Toronto Zoo, a sprawling site with many paths. Take water with you, as the walk is long, and use the rest areas under the trees.

Day 5: High Park. High Park is your rest day in the green. On the big playground children climb through a wooden fort, and at Grenadier Pond you watch the ducks. The small woodland paths are good for exploring, and the children's zoo enclosure shows llamas and bison. Pack a picnic and let the children run until their legs feel heavy.

Day 6: Art Gallery of Ontario. The Art Gallery of Ontario impresses with Frank Gehry's curved staircase and a large Canadian collection. With children a tour through a few galleries is enough, with a sketch hunt as a game. In the evening you go to the Toronto Skyline Viewpoint, where the city lights sparkle above the water. A jacket for the wind off the lake makes sense.

Day 7: Farewell to Toronto. For the farewell, the Museum of Illusions Toronto awaits, where children stand on their heads and stagger in the vortex tunnel. The visit is short and fits well before the return flight. After the last photo there is time for a bagel or pancakes. Travel to Pearson Airport with the UP Express train, which is stress-free with luggage.
