Our Top GTA Destination Picks for this Winter:

The ACC is a Perfect GTA Charter Destination for Sports Buffs

Book a charter bus to take your group to the Air Canada Center for a live sporting event.  Everyone will have a blast, and be forever grateful that they didn’t have to deal with the traffic.  Because we all know it’s much better to be able to kick back and relax, and be driven there in style!

The Hockey Hall of Fame is another must-do for anyone with a love of sports.  It shows off an important part of Canadian history and is one of the most popular attractions in the GTA.

Check Out The Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada

This is one of the newest attractions in Toronto – the odds are high that many, if not most, people in your group haven’t seen it yet!  There are 135,000 square feet of attractions to visit here at the largest indoor aquarium in Canada, including over 16,000 marine animals. You’ll see jellyfish, giant lobsters, stingrays, sharks, sea turtles, eels, dive shows, and more!  There’s even an underwater viewing tunnel – it’s the length of a football field – that will allow you to get close-up views of some of the scariest-looking marine animals!
