(More customer reviews)Fodor's Toronto City Pack is a good choice if you plan to be in Toronto for less than a week. Its convenient size makes it easy to slip in a pocket or purse. Because of the plastic cover it is durable and useable in any weather. The inside cover has a handy map for quick orientation. A full-sized map tucked into the back flap will help with more serious perusals. The guide is concise and well organized by topic and includes an introduction, walking tours, and practical information. The Top 25 Attractions section has pictures along with highlights and handy information in the margin. The top attractions are listed from west to east not by importance. It makes the Royal Botanical Gardens and the McMichael Collection seem like their top two picks. Prices for the Top 25 are not given but listed as inexpensive, expensive, or free. This was probably a good idea because under their Free Activities they list the tour of the CBC; however, it is no longer a free tour. Restaurants and hotels, though limited in number, are listed in a logical manner. All in all, the book is a good resource for the short or one-time visit.
