Getting Around:
Getting around Austin is both convenient and enjoyable, thanks to the city’s accessible layout and variety of transportation options. Whether you prefer to explore by car, bike, scooter, or on foot, Austin makes it easy to experience all the local neighborhoods and attractions. The city’s public transportation system, Capital Metro, offers reliable bus and rail service connecting key destinations, while rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are widely available for quick trips. Many visitors love renting bikes or electric scooters to cruise along scenic trails, especially around Lady Bird Lake and through downtown’s vibrant streets. With walkable districts, ample bike lanes, and plenty of parking options, navigating Austin is a breeze—so you can spend less time in transit and more time soaking up everything this dynamic city has to offer.

If you’re exploring downtown or lively neighborhoods like South Congress, walking or biking is a fantastic way to soak up the local vibe—these areas are very pedestrian- and bike-friendly, with plenty of trails and bike lanes. For longer trips, or if you want to check out attractions a bit farther out (like Zilker Park, Barton Springs, or neighborhoods beyond downtown), having a car is super convenient and gives you the most flexibility. Austin also has plenty of bikes and electric scooters for rent, making it easy to zip around without worrying about parking. So, if you’re sticking to central Austin, walking or biking is ideal, but if you want to explore all corners of the city, having a car makes things easy.
