Transport details
Type: Public Transportation / Category: Tram

Throughout the tour, we’ll be walking and using Toronto’s efficient public transit system, the TTC, which includes subways, streetcars, and buses. One of the benefits of using public transit is that it gives you a little rest from walking while still offering an authentic local experience. You’ll hear interesting stories about the TTC along the way, learning how it’s become a crucial part of Toronto’s history and daily life. The TTC fare is $3.25 for up to 2 hours of travel, but don’t worry about the details – we’ll take care of everything when we meet. By the end of the tour, you’ll feel comfortable navigating the TTC yourself and will be ready to explore even more of Toronto during your visit.
