Queen Street should be marked down as a priority of your places to visit in Ontario. The atmosphere and diversity of stores on Queen Street is very overwhelming, especially the first time around. It’s always great to fully embrace all the wonders of Queen Street in a full day.

It’s my pleasure to provide everyone with tips to embrace their experience on Queen Street.

1.      Set and follow a budget for the day

2.      Do your research prior and make a list of your TOP 3-5 desired stores to go

3.      Have your phone/camera ready to capture the moments.

4.      Keep your eyes open of all stores

5.      Keep track of time

6.      Don’t spend more than 15 minutes in one store if it isn’t one of your top stores on your list.

7.      Give yourself enough time to go up the whole street once and then back down the whole street just in case you’ve missed any stores you didn’t spot the first time.

8.      Grab a bite at a restaurant you’d never have a chance to eat at in your local city.

9.      HAVE FUN AND ENJOY YOUR DAY ON QUEEN STREET
