Some people learn about a city. Others live it. John Gerges does both. As one of Toronto’s most recognised walking tour guides, he has built a career by transforming ordinary streets into moving stories. His tours feel less like scheduled events and more like guided adventures through the city’s energy, art and hidden corners.
“Toronto never sits still, so my tours can’t either,” he likes to say. His approach has helped him stand out in a crowded tourism market, especially in neighbourhoods like Queen West, Kensington Market and Graffiti Alley, where culture moves fast and the art changes overnight.
