My thoughts as a traveler……
Very accessible from the airport to the city (20 min ride) currently $12.35 CAD each way.
Very walkable but once you arrive at Union Staton. There is also a Tourist information inside. All you have to do is let them know what you want to see or how you want to get around downtown. There are also tons of bicycles outside the station to rent.
This time I chose to go to Chinatown for lunch. The restaurants are authentic and the food is yummy. After eating I took a Lyft to the Harbour to catch a ferry ride to Center Island. The larger ferry is about $10.60 CAD for a RT. The smaller ones run about $12.35 one way. But are faster. From there you can see the Toronto skyline and commune with nature. The wildlife and natural surroundings are beautiful and on this day the weather was as well.
The people are very friendly and exchanged smiles and hellos freely.
Just a side note. This is A very 420 friendly city. It’s everywhere. So if that’s not your thing you may be annoyed by just how prevalent it is.
All in all I would return and seek out more places to enjoy.

Thought I would share this Interesting update to some tourist areas in Italy. Many tourist areas are toying with these types of ideas in order to clean up their image and cater to the locals who live there. The extra revenue wouldn’t hurt in helping keep areas kept up and clean. Let’s hope they use it properly for their benefit. I have no problem with this personally.
