Travel site Next Vacay compiled a top 8 list of the hardest cities to navigate.  Their findings were based on Google Maps searches (directions), walkability score, average taxi fares, and transportation options.

 

  1. Toronto
  2. London
  3. Mexico City
  4. New York
  5. Paris
  6. São Paulo
  7. Madrid
  8. Hong Kong

 

“Approximately 3.9 million people search for directions in Toronto every month, while driving in the city isn’t terrible, it’s incredibly challenging.  As a boomtown, there’s always new construction happening everywhere, so if you’re driving around the downtown area, you can expect traffic disruptions, congestion, and road closures that could suddenly change your route and potentially get you lost,” Next Vacay stated in a report.

“The city is perhaps best explored on foot or by taking advantage of one of North America’s finest public transportation systems. With an average walkability score of 61/100, you can see why the city made it to the top of our list. However, if you get lost in Toronto on your next trip, you may be glad to know that the city has an outstanding median mobile download speed of 94 Mbps—so no matter where you end up, you can always ask Google for help,” the company continues.
