Every week is a different experience! Sign up for more than one week.

Level Up the Summer Camp Experience!

As a parent, you are well aware that the day may come (or perhaps it already has) that your kid will ask to go out on their own and discover their city without you. City Scouts’ hope is that through exposing our campers to navigating city life they will feel safe and comfortable when they’re travelling without parents and have some fun ideas on places they want to explore.

How It Works

Discover a new neighbourhood every day.

The playing field spans the whole city from east to west. Your team will be assigned two neighbourhoods first thing in the morning and it’s your job to complete all the tasks you can. Don’t worry though, there’s lots of time to stop and check out the unique shops, parks, and spaces that each hood offers.

Navigate the city
by TTC.

There are a lot of maps at City Scouts that will show you how to get everywhere. Your team is responsible for figuring out the most efficient and fun route to get between neighbourhoods. This is your chance to learn how the TTC works!

Taste unique
local foods.

Toronto is one of the best food cities in the world! This is largely due to how the city has embraced all the unique cultural offering of its residents. At City Scouts we try unique food every day like dumplings, hodo kwaja,samosas and more! (We also try our best to find something for our campers with allergies as well)

Collect points and emerge victorious!


There are 3 ways to collect points!

Adventures are games that have you looking closely at the neighbourhood around you.

Discoveries are lessons about the history of the city and urban issues the city faces.

Bounties are challenges that can be done anywhere in the city like asking a city worker what their favorite park is.

What Parents Are Saying

“Our 12-year-old daughter had a fantastic time with City Scouts! She learned so many things about the city we live in that she doesn’t normally have a chance to do, like visiting a trial in progress, a TV show being filmed, looking up our street at the Toronto Archives… and best of all she learned how to navigate the city. Thank you for an awesome experience!”
Belinda Chang
“Alessandro loved City Scouts! He had so much fun running around the downtown with you guys and visiting all the neat locations, especially the old Don Jail! He also really enjoyed learning about the Toronto Archives and keeps asking for us to go there and look up our house. You’ll definitely see us next year! Thanks for the great experience.”
Theresa Grosso
“Boaz had an amazing experience at camp with you. He was exhausted at the end of every day, and at the same time could not wait to wake up to go back. In his one week with you, he grew in confidence, level of independence, street smarts, and navigation skills. I have been telling everyone about your camp!”
Sidura Ludwig
“As a parent in Toronto, there is so much to be worried about and there is a tendency to protect kids from any risk to the point that they are never given the freedom to explore. Riley Millican has created an amazingly special camp that gave my son the opportunity to learn more about our city and the tools to navigate it! We will definitely be signing up again for this summer.”I have been telling everyone about your camp!”
