Getting around Tolouse

Toulouse is a fairly large city. To get around, you can use the efficient public transport operated by Tisseo. Alternatively, you can opt for the most comfortable, and expensive, taxis, or for eco-friendly solutions such as bicycles. The car is to be discarded due to the excessive costs and the limited availability of parking spaces, especially in the central areas.
The historic center, on the other hand, is quite small, and you can move around mainly on foot.

BIKE

There are really numerous city cycle paths. One of the strengths has always been the Canal du Midi, lined with numerous tracks for cyclists. One of the passions of the inhabitants is to travel the many kilometers of cycle path that run alongside the canal.

VeloTolouse is an excellent bike rental service that offers the possibility to borrow a bike in one of the many stations in the city. There are more than 250. You pay by credit card. The cost is € 1.20 for the whole day.
Every time you borrow a bike, you will have to deliver it within 30 minutes, otherwise you will have to pay an extra fee (however not excessive). Respecting the delivery times, it will be possible getting around Toulouse, and move to the various points of the city, in a truly economic way.

BUS

The road network is incredibly extensive and covers, in a capillary way, the center and the periphery.
Numbers in hand, this is the most extensive transport system in the city, and most used by travelers and, above all, by the inhabitants.
The service is guaranteed by over 600 buses operating for just under 900km of line, and around 3000 stopping points. Every day, over 200,000 people use road transport to get around Toulouse.
Generally, the lines are in operation from the morning until 22:00. The most important lines terminal the service after midnight, even during weekdays.
On buses you can buy the ticket on board the vehicle
