Casa Loma Reviews

Casa Loma is a great place to visit. It's an out-of-place, but magnificent castle in the middle of Toronto, and once you step inside, you forget that you're in a bustling metropolis. Audio tours are free, so take advantage! they give you a good history of the house and lead you through the building and its beautifully restored rooms. There are also underground tunnels that lead the stables. Don't forget to wander the grounds where there are beautiful water fountains and gardens!
