Frequently Asked Questions — Getting Around Toronto

What makes the PRESTO card useful for tourists in Toronto?

The PRESTO card covers TTC subway, streetcars, and buses in Toronto plus GO Transit regional trains including the UP Express to Pearson Airport. One card covers all these networks with tap-and-go payment — no need for cash or separate tickets.

Is there a train from Toronto Pearson Airport to downtown?

Yes — the UP Express runs from Pearson Airport to Union Station in just 25 minutes, departing every 15 minutes. Pay with a PRESTO card for a small discount. Standard TTC subway fares do not cover the UP Express.

Which Toronto subway line is most useful for tourists?

Line 1 (yellow, Yonge–University) is most useful for tourists, forming a U-shape through downtown connecting Union Station, CN Tower (via Union), Bloor-Yonge, and Queen's Park. Line 2 (green, Bloor-Danforth) runs east–west through mid-town.
