Toronto can be expensive, but a good trip does not require paying admission every half-day.
Free city experiences
Neighbourhood walks, waterfront parks, public architecture, markets, beaches and selected galleries or events can fill substantial time.
Museum free periods
Some institutions offer free admission by age, residency or specific time periods. These programs change and may require reservations.
Transit budget
Compare pay-as-you-go fares, a day pass and walking. A pass is not automatically cheaper for a lightly scheduled day.
Attraction passes
Calculate the included attractions you will actually visit at current official prices. Do not buy a pass because a marketing percentage sounds large.
