13 Things to do in Windsor, Ontario, Canada | Top Activities in Windsor

[@Al-McGregor]

The best attraction of Windsor is practically Detroit in front of it.

[@asab2497]

Im from there and seriously... first thing to do is visit the D...

[@jont2228]

In Detroit they have coney island unbelievable how people are addicted to slow death fast food the coney island every single day same stuff🤮🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️

[@potatolord-tr1qp]

i only like to go to Winsor for Detroit i road my road bike there from Essex

[@Jay-jw2xr]

Thank you for glamorizing my home city! Born and raised there but moved to the East Coast at 12. I am feeling like I needed to go back to my roots, so I'm exploring the internet to see my old home I grew up in, my old school before it got demolished, and just Windsor in general! I wanna go back to Ontario for a visit, but I wanna go back to Windsor for sure.

[@TheAverageTourist]

We really enjoyed visiting Windsor, it was actually my first time ever there. Seems like there are some great attractions and I really liked the waterfront. Hope you get to visit again one day.

[@MrSujano]

Windsor is great! Home to one of the best whiskey distilleries in Canada!

[@TheAverageTourist]

I can't wait to go do the whiskey experience one day.

It’s weird to see people on KZbin walking somewhere you walked in before!! It feels so cool

[@patriciaellis490]

I will be visiting the city of Windsor for the Sept,2022 long weekend, I really appreciate watching this video so many fun things to do while there. Thank you!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thank you!! Hope you have a great time. 🙌

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Can you believe that I grew up in Detroit, but have never been to Windsor? Next time, I'm back to visit family, I'm definitely going. There's plenty to see and do and those river views are amazing. Great tips!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Really!? Well one day you might have to visit. I'd suggest visiting in the summer to enjoy the patios and scenery 👌

[@LucasWorldTravel]

I love urban art and dinosaurs. The drive-in would be a great date night.

[@codinhavagoscandida4942]

I know windsor very well, beautiful place

[@idolthreatpodcast2138]

then you really dont k ow windsor at all. its awful nothing to do thay dont envolve booze. junkies and homeless have taken over.

[@paulh2282]

For #11, that area is used for all sorts of things like Blues Fest, Rib Fest, Freedom Festival. Before the pandemic the Freedom Fest would double the population of Windsor during the fireworks show.

[@Zipper83]

Really freedom ? So if I go there can I talk about transgender are no women without being called transphobic ? and talk about Isreal doesn't exist and they killing Palestinian without being called antisemitic??? Wow I love that FREEDOM fest I definitely need to go there ... is FREEDOM festival right ?!😏

[@heldinson]

Very nice video about Windsor......This will help boost Windsor's image...good job.

[@papiyadutta1242]

This place is in our bucket list. Seems so wonderful

[@TheAverageTourist]

It's a lovely city - we liked the summer vibes by the river.

[@MarijuanaCanada]

It’s a nice city. But wait for everything to open back up first.

[@therandomnessofrandom1734]

I grew up in Windsor, and visit often since I now live near Detroit, and it's often overshadowed by bigger cities so thank you for this video! I've been stuck stateside for nearly 2 years because of the pandemic and this video helped me with my nostalgia! Thanks for reminding me of things to do when I visit again.

[@aubreyaragon988]

Greetings from Phoenix, Arizona 🇺🇸. I live near Urban art area's we have it alot in Downtown Phoenix area. The urban art is what I like. Windsor looks very nice suburban culture type vacation. Good place to raise families there. Very impressive.

[@cl1ps4re4l4]

I live in windsor and it is a nightmare

[@brianmcfarland8377]

Thank you for your video. I worked in Detroit in 15’ and while I was at the auto show I looked out at Windsor and always wondered what it was like.

[@trendingtopics7626]

This is awesome place and you described very well,, really enjoyable

[@MrBencher446]

You have to include the Blues Fest, it happens every summer they have great blues bands that come in and perform down by the riverfront.

[@davidrongpi4318]

So many interesting place

[@revanshamas9894]

My half brother he lives in Windsor three times I visit him & I am from Saskatoon it’s nice place close to Michigan.. and then I went with my friends to visit Detroit my cousin lives there and I wish to go back again but the pandemic is bad

[@TonySousa]

Great video. Visited Windsor years ago and found the people friendly. Thanks for sharing.

[@PrimeTimeTravelers]

I grew up in Toledo and have a lot of family and friends in the Detroit area....I've spent a LOT of time in Windsor when I was younger. Love the Riverwalk areas. Next time I am up that way I am going to use your tips and know some new places to try! Thanks for sharing!!

[@TheAverageTourist]

I've never been to Toledo! I'd like to visit more of the US when I can. Windsor is lovely and we were in Detroit about 10 years ago, so it's time to go back! Hope the tips can be helpful :)

[@christopherjoseph3578]

Great video thou most was in Walkerville and downtown. Sandwich Town which dates back to late 1700s has incredible historic buildings with restaurants and a brewery.

[@kaitsdiary]

very beautiful place like the scenery good video

[@brandymusson9838]

Just to let you know Windsor has some great pizza too if you ever come again since lock down is over I really like Sam's pizza by the university of Windsor 💙💜💙 oh and Jackson park is pretty too

[@chefjatindersingh7619]

Great city The Windsor

[@zacks1690]

I want to do a working holiday in Canada, Windsor is on my list of places to live and work, sending you guys lots of love from Australia. (The other places are Toronto and the obvs Vancouver).

[@kihunkim9122]

I enjoyed my working holiday in Sydney, Brisbane! Massive love from 🇰🇷

[@TheTravelBugBite]

This is beautiful! The skyline is soooo beautiful. The Coventry Gardens looked so cool too, but I'd love to do all of these things! Thank you so much for sharing. I hope to visit this awesome city soon!

[@weatherboi]

Great video of a city with a lot of history and memories. My neice and her husband were married at Willistead Manor, a wonderful place to visit. Thanks for posting.

[@EdwardTravels]

Another excellent Ontario video. Thanks for posting. Very informative

[@bxnsheesh]

I've lived in Windsor for 12 outta almost 18 years and you managed to make Windsor look like L.A. I'm extremely impressed and surprised, quality vid right here

[@seanleith5312]

You think making Windsor look like LA is positive? Those people in LA are crazily stupid. The tents, homeless people, needles and human drops. They even have an app to map the human poops in the city. Of course some still rich but stupid people, they are the shame of the society. I like Windsor, but like LA, no thanks.

[@wildrift4788]

Let's not get ahead of ourselves comparing ... Windsor.. to LA. 🙄

[@pinetreeatmosphere]

im from la and windsor looks nicer

[@kasra01]

Amazing video, thanks.

Glad you liked it!

[@RallyCapBaseballtalk]

Windsor is awesome i live in windsor

[@lizcuero9065]

This was an awesome video. My favorite part was the clean highway and Transylvania looking home you call a manor.

[@TheAverageTourist]

It does have Transylvania vibes!

[@sshenbaga]

Beautiful place. When I get a chance definitely will explore this place!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Fantastic! Hope you enjoy when you do visit.

[@DjusLife]

The sculpture park sense like an awesome place to go for a walk, you'd definitely find us there or one of the local craft breweries, we're just like you guys in that way already try to find a local brewery and a coffee roaster

[@TheAverageTourist]

Yes the sculpture park was pretty cool - I liked that it was by the river. And quite a few breweries to choose from! We could only get to 2 of them.

[@miesh33]

Great Video! I'm from Windsor and live very near to the light house; right next door to it is The Harbour House which is the only restaurant we have that actually has a patio on the water, and fantastic food too. Also if you cross the street from the light house the trail there will take you to the Ganachio trail which is over 10km of walkable trails, with beautiful forrest and wild life :) I also suggest Ojibway Park, and the restaurants on Erie street, or little Italy as we know it.

[@mercymurimi2286]

Hello is it possible to get jobs here at Windsor?

[@captainmacoy]

Ontario looks inviting and so with the weather I thought its still snowing out there, I love the floating fountain is very cool!

[@bxnsheesh]

Windsor is pretty bad ngl, go to Vancouver or British Columbia there's a lot to do and see - person who lives in Windsor

[@milesmonacothesequel2294]

I wouldn't make a judgement of the weather in Ontario based off of its most southern city by far, in April.

[@mikefaulksy1447]

Had so much fun in this city! The bull + barrel is an awesome bar to go to for good nightlife! Had a great time at craft heads brewery, Caesars + treehouse as well what a fun little city. Oh and its one of the only cities in canada with bird scooters. Leave them wherever you want and pick them up all over the city. So fun :)

[@TheAverageTourist]

I'll have to go back and try that bar and check out the scooters. Maybe not at the same time though 🤣

[@mikefaulksy1447]

@@TheAverageTourist Yes do the scooters before the bars LOL

[@konerking4293]

Welcome to Windsor, the best thing we have is that were close to another city.

[@takecare6178]

Love love love.

[@TravelInteresante]

I had no idea that it was the southernmost city in Canada. So pretty during the Summer, so much to do and see! They have such great street art too! I also didn't know about the international film festival that takes place there. So much to do there, hope we get to visit one day!

[@TheAverageTourist]

It was my first time ever visiting - so I'm not sure how the other seasons would be. I think summer is probably best for the river views and activities.

[@canuck33]

Actually, this is the only part of Canada that is literally south of the United States.

[@StormChaserFilmography]

@@canuck33 - There are other portions of Canada that are located South of some of the 'contiguous' United States, but the vast majority of them are clearly focused to Southern Ontario to Eastern Ontario and extreme Southern Quebec because of the manner in which these regions extend and 'dig' to the SW. Extreme Southern Quebec, for example, is farther South than the Northern tier of Maine, as well as farther South of most of the extreme Northern states across the Western United States (such as North Dakota, and much of Minnesota or Montana), as well as being on par with and slightly farther South of extreme Northern Michigan. Windsor, Ontario, however, is situated so much to the South that it surpasses the Southern extents of many states, being in line with central Iowa's latitude, for instance. Even farther South of Windsor is Leamington, and even more, an island in Lake Erie hugging the international border, called Middle Island (just South of Pelee Island, which is accessed by ferry from Leamington via Highway 77 South). The Southern tip of Middle Island would be, as far as I know, the most Southern point of Canada by land.

Hi guys, wow Windsor is so beautiful and there is so much to do there. The loose goose looks awesome. I think the urban art / murals are so absolutely awesome. Yay for the mentioning the Breweries 🎉 they look awesome especially the second one after having a full day of travel they have a good selection. The Casion looks so lovely, such a pitty it was closed. Love getting a glimpse of a lighthouse in each city. Thanks for showing us awesome things to do in Windsor, we hope to get an opportunity to travel there one day.

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thanks guys! Yes it was a fun weekend getaway. And you know us, always on the hunt for breweries 😂

What about visiting local wineries? Probably not open during pandemic but a great thing to do a wine tour when available

Wonderful!!

Windsor sounds like a great place to visit. Such amazing public art! Sculpture walk is such a cool feature. The food and beer scene looks really swell too. And I LOVE old lighthouses.

[@rrmm2644]

Thats just media, windsor is so boring after the first visit

Windsor does have some scary stuff and bad people there but there are some fun stuff to do there.

Downtown reminds me of Mesa, and Gilbert AZ area. Looks nice. Like it

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Everytime we see your videos it makes us want to visit some breweries. The manor house and garden look so perfectly manicured! Windsor looks like a very pretty place to visit with a mix of modern architecture along with some more historical looking places. So different to the Windsor we have here in England!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Haha we have that boozey effect on people 😂 It definitely is much different than your Windsor, but I'm pretty sure that's where our Windsor stole the name from!

[@SocialScope]

I was sold as soon as the dinosaur sculptures showed up haha 😅 your presentation style is really good keep up the good work

This is great share. Give us an idea where to go whenever we will visit Windsor Ontario.

Wow Windsor is so pretty in the summer. We'd love the mural tour and all the gardens. Reminds us a lot of St. Pete! Really cool that they closed down part of the street to make extra dining room for the downtown restaurants. The selection of beers at the second brewery looked amazing. More often than not we end up with stouts and ipa's too. Someday we are going to have to go brewery hopping with you guys!!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Yes we definitely will need to go brewery hopping one day! It's definitely a great summer city to visit - not sure about winter... but one day I'll have to try. We liked all the restaurant options and everything was very walkable.

This is such a great list of things to do in Windsor. I love the Riverfront Trail and the art murals. That's so cool how there is a map showing you the locations of all the different street art. Of course I am all about trying the craft beer and food! I had no idea that you could drive to Detroit from Windsor...that would be a fun thing to do!

Thanks! It was a fun weekend and we liked that most of the attractions were located by the river. Yeah Detroit and Windsor are so close - next time I hope we can cross over.

Born and raised in the W... Good video but one thing ppl should know who visit Windsor is that it's famous for its pizza and prolly the best in North America and famous for our little Italy and better than any in Ontario and Canada

Oh good to know!! I think I'll need to go back when we aren't in a pandemic so I can give the pizza a try.

[@tmarano2065]

Hope to go this summer! Hopefully we won't still be in lockdown!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Yes! I hope by then lockdowns are over. It's a nice area for a weekend getaway.

[@75YBA]

We won’t.

[@KitatheExplorer]

You know I have been to Detroit several times and would always look over the river at Windsor but never went over (probably because I usually didn't have my passport). But this was nice to see Windsor from the inside instead of the outside looking in. I loved how the brewery changed things up for tastings during the pandemic. It has a nice seating area outside. Oh wow, the casino is closed. Has it been closed since March 2020?

[@bigboinestle9054]

Nothing really special here. The casino was closed, opened back up, and just closed again. But, it's always nice going down to the river on a nice, hot summer day.

[@OurTravelPlace]

I would love to follow the map of that street art - the pieces you showed looked great! I love that your videos always involve breweries 😄 Geronimo IPA was a great name for a beer!

The Windsor area is pretty nice. It gets a bad rep but we enjoyed it

[@Svenywhere]

I think the backdrop is main reason for me to visit the sculpture park. I rather do the riverfront trail. I will not make my standard comment about breweries, of course that is covered here. A pity to see that the casino is closed, would be good to understand why you think this is a good visit, sounded like a standard casino. I would love to come when the International Film Festival is taking place.
