Okay, out-of-town visitors, this may be the most affordable option for transportation between the…read moreairport and downtown Toronto, if you PLAN AHEAD. Many of the guide-books (on-line and in print) will say that the most efficient method of getting into Toronto is by Taxi or Limo. Well, that is true. Yet, the least costly method will be to use Pacific Western's Airport Express. You can either pre-arrange your ride on-line or if you are at the airport: Terminal 1- AE Customer Service is located on the Arrivals Level Curbside Post C. Bus departs from Posts B and E. Terminal 3 - AE Customer Service is located on the Arrivals Level Curbside at Area # 25 The cost for 1 way ticket is $CAD 19.95 and round-trip is $CAD 32.95. This is compared to a cab/limo ride which can range from $CAD 45-55 ONE WAY! The downside to this service: 1) there are multiple stops, 2) these stops may or may not be close to your lodging so it may take some pre-planning or use of other public transport between lodging and the pick up/drop off location. and 3) you must really allow quite a bit of time to allow for downtown traffic and any traffic accidents, which may delay pick up and drop off times. This weekend, it took me 1 hour and 45 minutes to get from my pick up point to the airport. I had allotted only 2 hours and 15 minutes for travel, which was tight because of a traffic accident which had thrown all of the airport express buses off schedule. It almost caused me to miss my flight, as a result (flight from Toronto to USA) b/c I had to go through check-in of luggage and customs. Just to be safe, I would recommend allocating at least 3.5 to 4 hours for travel time to the airport to factor in potential bus issues.

The bus late picking us up due to traffic but Shahz made it up to us with plenty of time at the Falls - 3.5 hours to account for how busy it was. The maple syrup stop was great, and though we only opted for the boat ride and not the lunch, there were plenty of spots to eat on our own. One thing to note - if you plan to do Journey to the Falls but that ticket as soon as you arrive - it was over two hours of waiting when we tried to which wasn't possible given our time window. All in all, highly recommend this experience - and hope you get Shahz!

These buses block traffic (no parking/stopping 4-6pm) with zero regard for other drivers and the tenants in the build. They park the buses all weekend in front of a build taking up 5-6 of the 9-10 spots available. It seems they really don't care who they inconvenience others. Not sure how they are with bus rentals but they appear to care nothing about other people.

They've been slowly upgrading their bus/streetcar/subway trains to more efficient, spacious and even more accommodating for passengers. The new vehicles are certainly an improvement compared to the past. If you need to get somewhere in Toronto, odds are you'll be able to get there via TTC. The service is passable and individual employees are friendly enough, but I still feel there are a lot of inefficiencies in the way it is run, which has to do with management. Constant price increases never seem to be enough as the TTC always seems to run a budget deficit. Pros: Accessibility to a lot of streets in Toronto (coverage-wise) Service comes relatively quickly Navigation can be aided by a GPS-tracking app that updates in real time Runs all day and on weekends Relatively inexpensive pricing Cons: Constant price increases with little to no service improvements Delays on TTC subway lines are frequent during rush hour Lack of adherence to the stated bus schedules make planning a bit difficult (although the aforementioned app above does mitigate this con somewhat) Overall I would rate the experience as average. It gets you from point A to B, and that's all you can really ask for from a transit system.
