Recommendation
If you're looking for a quicker and hassle-free option, I recommend flying from Toronto to San Francisco and then renting a car to drive the remaining distance to Gilroy, which is approximately 1.5 hours' drive from San Francisco. This combined travel method will save time and also allow you to explore the beautiful Bay Area while on your way to Gilroy.
