Thanksgiving weekend is one of the best times to visit the Toronto Zoo, with fall colours and the animals active in the cooler weather. In 2027 the long weekend falls on October 9 to 11. Whitby is on the same side of the city, a straight drive west on Hwy 401.
A long weekend for the family
Spend a day at the zoo, then come back for a Thanksgiving dinner around the dining table, cooked in a full kitchen or ordered in as home-made meals.
