Getting around Montreal is simple. Here are four of the most popular, inexpensive and easiest ways to get around Montreal.

Metro

Montreal has a metro system and it is a great way to get around the city. It is easy to use, inexpensive and fast.

Montreal’s metro has four lines that stop at all major areas in the city. Different kinds of tickets are available – one trip, two trips, day passes, 3 day passes, unlimited weekend use, etc.

An interesting fact about Montreal’s metro – it is the third busiest subway system in North America and it’s inspiration comes from the metro system in Paris.

Bus

Montreal also has an extensive bus system operated by the same organization that runs the metro system.

There are local buses for travel within the city, express buses for quick trips across the city, all night buses as well as a couple of other kinds of bus transportation. For a full list, click here.

Bus schedules can be obtained by looking online, through a mobile app, SMS, metro service alerts or through their mobile site.

Bicycle

Montreal has an amazing self-serve, public bicycle system. It is run by Bixi. There are bicycle stations all around the city, you can pay at the station, pick out a bicycle, ride around, park it at another location, pick up another bicycle when you’re ready to move on.

Montreal’s streets are mostly bicycle friendly. Just be sure to wear a helmet and learn the rules of the road before riding a bike on the street.

By Foot

Walking is always a great way to see a city. It gives you a chance to see and experience more than if you were in a car, bus or train.

A lot of Montreal’s interesting neighborhoods are near each other which makes it an easy city to see by foot.
