tour of the rogers center (used to be known as the skydome), its next door to the cn tower so you can easily do both

cruise on Lake Ontario perhaps, Steam Whistle Brewery tour is good (also next to cn tower)

if there are no hockey games you can always go to the hockey hall of fame which is only a couple of blocks from the cn tower

go out to the islands on the bay- there are boat tours going down by the harbour. They are amazing & you get great views of the city on the way back.

Casa Loma.

Go to niagara on the lake not to be mistaken with the falls- a really nice picturesque town.

Eat lunch/dinner in revolving restaurant at cn tower.

Go shopping in eaton centre

you gotta check out the canadian exibition centre or simply the X there should be a huge funfair / exibition from all over canada on at that point so do check it out its on stop from the central station on any GO train

emm of course go to central island like was said above

emm go to queen st West if you guys are youngish, its kinda like the very hip / student area of town with lots of crazy shops and grazy people always worth a wander and plus it intersects with china town which is a must see / smell trust me it is crazy and soo much fun

emmm just to tell you guys CN Tower n Rogers centre can be quite expensive as i found out when i was showing my friends toronto lol

hmm ok ya have to check one of these resturants out....Mandarin just like the small orange or chinese lol....its an all you can eat buffet that has everything from chinese to sunday roasts seriously you will just be amazed by the size of it lol they are a very well know chain and there is a few down town

oh check out the air canada centre there should be some basket ball games on then....i think or else concerts or something like that

go to lake shore cause there is this huge park that runs all along the lake and has a really nice board walk to just stroll along and some nice resturants too

go on the sub way of course such a novelty for us irish ahah

emmm hmmmm if there is anything else that i can think of i will let you know for sure

Free beer at teh steam whistle brewery too, and its really good.

Reservoir Lounge is a fantastic place, even if you don't like jazz, you'll enjoy it: http://reservoirlounge.com/

This hotel has the best view of the Niagara Falls: http://www.fallsviewcasinoresort.com/Default.aspx?Home (or it did a few years ago!)

-Kensington Market... try out the jamican and other ethic foods available and have a coffee at Moonbean

- Bata Show Museum on Bloor.. may sound boring but its actually really really interesting and theres more in there than you would think!

-Niagara Falls, and you should head up to the touristy part across from it theres a place called 'Nightmares Fear factory' Go check it out if you are brave enough!

- I second getting the boat out to the Islands amazing views and its really quiet and relaxed out there.

banshee_bones I don't want you thinking I'm being mean but just wanted to say that it's the Bata Shoe Museum, easy mistake to make! Isn't it the coolest place? I went there 3 times, it used to be free in after 5.30pm on Thursdays

I know someone mentioned Chinatown, but seriously go into some of the supermarkets there and have a look at the products, the black chickens used to fascinate me! Some of the stuff in there has to be seen to be believed.

I went on a Booze Cruise organised by Canadiana Backpackers Hostel, brilliant night, gorgeous views across the water as the sunset then free into a club and stuff, worth a look.
