    It was my first time in Toronto and I chose to do a Tour with Shane. Shane is a great guy, who knows very well his city and brings you to his favourite places. Definitely worth as you discover the city with a different perspective and you explore areas you won’t do on your own ! Shane adapts to your needs and we adjusted on a cold day to go for some places that were more appropriate than the planned tour and it worked out fantastically!

    Shane’s tour was the best - despite the cool, windy weather we got to see Toronto from a local’s perspective w/o missing some its landmarks! Sharing some peameal and drinks with the friendly Torontonians, we became friends! Go Maple Leafs! Surely worthy of another visit! 5 star recommendation.

    We are quite grateful to our Tour guide Shane Dixon for an amazing tour of Toronto! We learned so much about the city, saw so much and tasted great treats along the way, not to mention good drinks too. We could have never accomplished what we did on our tour without the knowledge, energy, professionalism, charm and excitement Shane as our guide showed us! It is hard to find exceptional people these days, and we definitely found that in Shane, a wonderful person with great experience and love of life!

    Shane was a great time! We try to book food / drinks tours in any city we travel to, even if we've been there before, as a great way to meet locals and experience what they do for fun. This tour did not disappoint! Shane tailored the entire day around our preferences, personalities, and schedule. At the end of the day, we were full, ready for a nap, and had a ton of places to either get back to or try out next. I wish we had more time in Toronto so we could've gotten back to them all. Oh, and Shane was pretty fun as well! I'd highly recommend Shane's tours to anyone travelling to Toronto with a few extra hours to spare.
