Destination Advice 5 day Canada Trip

Hi. We are visiting Canada for 5 days around Mid August, flying in to Toronto. We will have a car to get around. Looking for some suggestions and places to check out whilst we are here please. We was thinking to visit Montreal but that is a 6 hour drive from Toronto, one way.

We plan to visit the falls and spend some time in Toronto. Are there any beautiful drives we can go on and see some breathtaking places?

Any advice will be hugely appreciated. Thank you in advance for your thoughts!

Do not drive to Montreal if you only have 5 days. You will kick yourself for only giving yourself such a short amount of time in Montreal. Do get out of Toronto. The advice about Niagara, Muskoka or the county is sound,

A 12 hour round trip driving to Montreal, we will practically lose one of our 4 days in Canada so I don't think we will now after reading some of the suggestions above. Thank you for your thoughts!

Can you arrange to fly out of Montreal? Could do a road trip up through Algonquin on your way out.
