Distillery District is a Toronto must
Nicole was a great guide. Such a fun experience! Two breweries and a distillery with a full meat and cheese board.

Great tour of the Distillery District!
We took the Distillery District Beer & Cheese Tasting Tour. Our tour guide was Tom. He did a fantastic job of giving us the amazing history & told us many interesting, fun stories about the Distillery DistrIct. We went to 3 different distilleries & sampled many different types of beer & very tasty charcuterie board with a delicious raspberry spread. I enjoyed the jam so much I purchased a jar. The warm pretzels we were served with the samples of beer at one of the other distilleries were delicious. There was live music and everything was great! I wish we had remembered to take more pictures of the samples and the places we went to because I can only recall one of them. They should hand out info on the distilleries to take home so we can possibly purchase the products ourselves. We would recommend the tour. It was really fun!
Response from the operator: Thanks for taking our Beer & Cheese tour! We love all the tasting spots too (and food/drink). Great suggestion for having a brochure or card of each place.

Great tour for beer lovers
We went on the beer and cheese tour, we were there a few mins early so as it was only us we began the tour early with Nicole. The tour started with some history about the district before moving to our first tasting at the mill street brewery. The bar tender was really lovely and gave us lots of samples to try tailored to our preferred beers as well as trying some others including a mango beer which was delicious 😋. We moved onto a beautiful venue, Spirit of York for lunch. It was less 'beer and cheese tour' but still lovely to visit. We ordered some extra spirits to sample which were tasty, the place had a modern bar area with the distillery behind. Our tour guide left us for a while to enjoy our lunch which included some cheese. Lastly we made our way to the final destination, our second brewery where we sampled another good range of beers. The tour was a lovely experience in a historically interesting place with a modern twist. Following the tour we provided some constructive feedback which the company acted on positively to improve their future beer and cheese tours.
Response from the operator: Thank you! We really appreciate your honest and constructive feedback so we can continuously improve our tour. Glad to hear you enjoyed the beers/cheese and overall experience!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Toronto.
How much does The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $69 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Toronto usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Toronto is not rushed.
Is The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Toronto, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Toronto can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Toronto and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Toronto within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Toronto?
+
On Outty we rank every Toronto experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Niagara Falls Tour from Toronto: Boat Ride & Journey Behind Falls, Niagara Falls Canada Day Tour From Toronto + Boat Cruise Option, Niagara Falls Day Tour from Toronto. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Toronto?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Toronto?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour?
+
Included: Alcoholic beverages; and Snacks. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour?
+
Please check in with our guides at the Go Tours Canada office to begin your tour, thank you! Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour?
+

Is The Toronto Beer and Cheese Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
