Toronto has a full four-season climate with real extremes, so timing matters. The flight from the UAE is long, around 14 hours 30 minutes nonstop.
Summer (June to August): warm and lively
Warm, long days, patios and festivals make summer the most popular time, ideal for the city, the lake and day trips to Niagara. It is the busiest and priciest season, so book ahead.
Autumn (September to October): colour and comfort
Crisp, comfortable weather and spectacular autumn foliage make this a favourite for many, with fewer crowds than summer.
Winter and spring
Winter (December to March) is cold and snowy, quiet and cheaper, good for winter sports and festive markets if you are prepared for the freeze. Spring (April to May) is mild and fresh as the city thaws.
