Cheap Car Hire Toronto

Car hire Toronto - experience a truly multicultural city

Toronto - the name has Indian roots. It means meeting place: At one time, the indigenous people, the Wyandot held their gatherings here. The times have changed but the city still remains as a meeting place. More than 4 million inhabitants live in the hinterland of the largest city in Canada- people from more than 165 countries. In the 19th century Toronto grew into a huge, colourful city. During this time there were mostly Scottish, English, Irish, Russian and German immigrants as well as Jews from America and Africans that had fled from slavery. Migrants from the 1950’s from the previous century were mostly people from the Asiatic region, the Caribbean, Latin America and Africa. With this Toronto has become what it is today: The most multicultural city in the world! No-one can escape this unique flair! Those of you that have the desire and also the appetite can choose from "Chinatown", "Little Italy", "Greek Town" and "Korean Town".

Witness the different architectural styles which is the make up of Toronto with car hire

Toronto is not only the most populated city and the cultural centre of Canada- but is also the commercial and financial capital of the country. The glitzy apartment buildings and the sky-scrapers in the middle of old buildings from the early years convince us of this. The result is a fascinating and for Toronto a very specific mixture of different architectural styles. The main shopping street is Yonge Street, along this street there are also lots of restaurants, offices and shopping centres to be found. Your shopping experience definitely has no limits here! You can reach this street in your cheap car rental. Street artists also provide a unique urban flair. Those of that have a love of architecture should visit the City Hall which is situated in the city centre and can be easily reached in your cheap hire car. The city Hall was constructed by the Finnish architect Viljo Revell at the beginning of the 1960’s. Those of you that love history will be interested in the Casa Loma- a building similar to a castle that was built at the turn of the century in European style architecture. Today, the building houses an interesting museum- the Apropos museum - with 98 rooms, secret corridors, an antique swimming pool and a botanical winter garden.  You will also find the most important art gallery in Canada: the “Art Gallery of Ontario” (AGO)
