여행 팁
경비 절약 방법
Buy a City PASS for a discount on popular city attractions
If you think you might visit more than one of the city's popular city attractions -- such as the CN Tower, Royal Ontario Museum, Casa Loma, the Toronto Zoo, and/or the Ripley's Aquarium -- buy a City PASS.
It offers you a discount, and you would have several days to use the pass.

Use the subway to get around downtown
Driving downtown can be a headache. It is often easiest (and sometimes faster and cheaper) to use the subway.
The $3.25 cash fare is much cheaper than trying to park downtown during weekdays. Also children aged 12 and under ride free, so it is a family-friendly option!
