Transit and Tours

Guelph is an active community. A bicycle-friendly community. It’s truly one of the best ways to experience our many scenes and sites. Our city has embraced this environmentally sustainable form of transit by making it accessible to get around with bike lanes on our main roads and shared lane spaces and trails connecting our neighbourhoods. Check out our online Guelph Cycling Map at Guelph.ca/bike for a detailed list of trails, lanes and bike-friendly routes to navigate our city on two wheels, or even three. Plus, our buses are equipped with bike racks, so you can stow and go from place to place, at your convenience.

All public transportation in Guelph comes in at one central location –Guelph Central Station (79 Carden St). Guelph Transit has the city covered with many route options to get you where you need to be. The routes are easy to follow and always available online.
