Experience the vibrancy, far-reaching history and greenery of Ontario's capital city of Ottawa. Sip wine in the Niagara Peninsula's fast-growing wine region, visit Toronto's enchanting Casa Loma castle and view the city from CN Tower's 447m/1,465ft-high Skypod, or cruise among the Thousand Islands near Kingston. Ontario's got it all, and the Michelin Green Guide Ontario tells you exactly how to make the most of this richly cultured Canadian province. Choose what to do, where to eat, and where to stay, using our local writers' unbiased reviews.
Michelin Green Guide Ontario features colourful maps and carefully selected travel itineraries that provide explorative driving and walking tours across the province. Colour photographs, a broad coverage of outdoor activities, shopping, and entertainment help you visualize your trip.
A Planning Your Trip section helps you organize your travels from transportation to and around Ontario through choosing your temporary accommodations.
Suggested outdoor activities and entertainment venues ensure you see a Blue Jays game in Toronto; check your bird list at Point Pelee, where major flyways converge; get wet at Niagara Falls; ice skate Ottawa's Rideau Canal; and laze away an afternoon boating the Muskoka Lakes.
Address Books placed throughout the guide show the variety of Ontario's restaurants as well as its charming B&Bs, sophisticated urban hideaways, upscale boutique hotels, luxurious spa retreats and other accommodations.
Descriptions of the landscape and topography of the province--from the 725km/453mi Niagara Escarpment and the Great Lakes to the massive Canadian Shield with its great forests, lakes and rivers--provide a visual image of the province before you go.
A well-researched history of Ontario spans the arrival of the Europeans and the fur trade through today's rise of Canada's dollar above the once-mighty greenback.
Features on architecture, art, music, festivals, food and drink give a clear insight into the 'province's cultural and gustatory diversity.
Sights laid out geographically provide easy navigation through Ontario's diverse terrain, while Michelin's star ratings direct your choice of journey and attractions.
