Newcomers to Brampton are being offered a free tour of all that the city has to offer.

Since 2009, the City of Brampton has offered free tours to new immigrants and recently arrived residents to allow them an opportunity to get familiar with their surroundings.

Over approximately three hours, staff will help familiarize riders with Canada’s ninth-largest city, its history and how to go about accessing available services, from obtaining a library card to alerting 911.

Riders will visit municipal facilities and places of interest like heritage areas, parks, libraries, community centres and public transit services.
