David

“Officially Licensed” David
- Likes Comedy
- Dislikes The existential questioning that comes with being funny
- Tip money Probably hair product
David kinda just showed up at our office one day and started working as a Tour Guide. We're not sure if he was born or just blinked into existence, but he's welcome here as long as he breathes - and stops doing that weird hovering thing. His comedy background makes our Segway tours unexpectedly hilarious.

Tom

- Likes Dogs, Whisky, Walking the 6
- Dislikes *The fact Mr. Toronto 1998 is a made up title
- Tip money Human Fuel for More Walking
Tom is a whisky lover who spends his spare time diving into obscure Toronto history. His years at Toronto City Hall give him a unique take on the city's historical charms - and our controversial past - which makes his Distillery District walking tours a treat for history buffs.
