Saint John Transit

There's nothing I love more than putting my ipod on and catching a ride on the bus. Now you may find that taking the bus weird activity to enjoy but taking the bus in Saint John is kind of like taking a tour around the city minus the tour guide. Saint John City Transit is very user friendly and allows for one to use public transportation easily. Where Saint John isn't a massive city, you can get from one location to another fairly quickly and hassle free.

City Transit even allows for you to take a bus out to the neighboring communities such as Rothesay, Quispamsis and Grand Bay-Westfield. This is their new Comex bus line. Often tourists will want to go to the Brundage River Centre in Grand-Bay or the Quispamsis Arts and Culture Park (just some examples) when there are certain events being held outside of the city. With this bus line, one is able to make the short commute.

Saint John City Transit even offers up a bus tour. I will include the information below.
