Latest reviews of Grand Tour Toronto: Doors Open Edition app for iPhone and iPad
A bit buggy (try to press Add to Itinerary and you end up writing an email) and a few typos ("governmetn", really?), and you need to be able to put your picks on a separate map on order to plan your day. But a good start nevertheless. Go public data!
Great app to plan an itinerary
