Erik brought the 19th-century Gooderham & Worts distillery to life with fascinating details about how the site evolved from a humble milling operation into one of the world’s largest whiskey producers. His storytelling struck the perfect balance between historical facts, humor, and local anecdotes — it felt more like a conversation with a passionate intellectual and a seasoned guide.

Erik shared his love of the history of the distillery with us and did it with humor! Highly recommend his tour. We will tell others about it.

This was a great tour! We misunderstood what this tour was about initially(we thought it involved tastings), but our tour guide Tom totally made the tour! He was personable, funny and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area. It was an hour well spent.

Erik was a great tour guide, very engaging and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this walking tour. I grew up in the Toronto area and moved away after college. I learned a lot of information on this tour that I didn't know about the distillery district and Toronto in general.

Stopped here on a bike tour then stopped later on my own. Lots of places to grab some drinks and walk around. I went to the Flame Brewery and Mill Street Pub and they were more affordable than other bars in the city
