Getting Around

While VIA bus service is a mainstay throughout the city - there's a bus stop just 1 block east of the house, at Hackberry and Montana- a trolley service, providing an excellent option for downtown sightseeing, has just been reintroduced from Sunset Station, the entertainment district adjacent to the Amtrak station near downtown. For just $1.30 for adults - children 4 and under ride free - and from 7 am - 11 pm weekdays and 9 am - 11 pm on weekends, riders are treated to a pleasant and convenient circle-tour through downtown, with stops near or at all of the major tourist attractions. Simply board at Sunset Station, a 1/2 mile/10 minute walk from the house - or, a 10 minute ride on bus #28 from the aforementioned bus stop - sit back and relax and enjoy all of the sights and sounds that have made the Alamo City one of the most popular destinations in the world.
