    Toronto Winter Lights—with a Mystery to Solve

    Jack Frost has hidden the Winter Star. Toronto’s Winter Glow needs your help.

    This season, give your holiday outing a story of its own with Gray Line Toronto’s Winter Lights & Mystery Scavenger Hunt by Bus. Follow the lights, collect clues and work together toward a secret finale.

    It is an evening with something to talk about long after the ride home.

    More than looking out the window

    Your adventure begins aboard a heated bus with a live host and your first clue. Watch for details, solve puzzles and uncover the next destination.

    Some checkpoints are viewed from the bus; others include short outdoor portions. The route stays a surprise, so your team discovers the evening as the story unfolds.

    At the finale, complete the last challenge and return the missing star within the game.

    Bring your favourite teammates

    Make it a family adventure, a playful date night or a festive evening with friends. Children participate with an adult, and your host provides hints along the way.

    Allow approximately 60–90 minutes. Bring warm layers, suitable footwear and one charged smartphone with mobile data per team. No app download is required.

    Start your Toronto winter adventure

    Main departures are at 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. from 55 York Street. Chelsea Hotel and Hilton / Sheraton pickup options are also available; follow your confirmed pickup time.

    Available dates and fares appear in the booking calendar.

    The missing star is part of a fictional adventure—but the teamwork and shared memories are yours.
