Halifax

The compact city of Halifax is best explored on foot or bicycle, which can be hired for a half or full day. Driving around is difficult: parking is hard to come by and expensive. To reach outlying districts there is the Halifax Metro Transit bus system. Fares are cheap, with a flat fare of Can $2 charged downtown. It is also possible to purchase budget books of 20 tickets for Can $32. In the city from Monday to Saturday during the summer season, a free bus service called “Fred” circles the downtown area about every 20 minutes.
