The best way to get around Saskatoon, in the summer, is on bike. The city is full of wide, inviting, tree-lined streets and bike paths, and the best way to experience the city and take in its beauty is to tour on two wheels! Particaularily, check out the Meewasin trail system, which extends along both sides of the river bank.

Getting places is easy, There is bus routes that cover every part of the city, and if you want you can rent a car, because like I said it is not hard to find your way around.
Taxi's are also an option, but those can get quite pricey sometimes

You can fly into the Diefenbaker airport from several major Canadian cities and I believe from Minneapolis as well. There is also a bus depot and I believe that you can still get there by train (although I have never done it). The drive from a major city like Calgary takes 6.5 hours and is largely unspectacular except for the area around Drumheller, Alberta.
A spread out city considering its small population, a car is very useful although the lay out of the city (I am told) does not make too much sense to outsiders. There are also public buses and of course taxis.

Biking or walking is a great way to get around Saskatoon. It isn't a large city and it's easy to find your way around.

Some say city transit is okay. But if you want to travel on the outskirts or outside of the city, you'll need a car.

The city of Saskatoon is named for the saskatoon berries that grow wild in the region. The saskatoon berry is similar to, but a little more fibrous than a blueberry.
