Tipps für Reisende
Verkehrsmittel
Public Transit
Our bus system is excellent for getting around the major areas of the city. There's a bus stop right at the end of the street with routes that take you to the Mall, University, Hospitals, downtown and more.
The Hop on Hop off Bus CA also take you to many of the popular destinations. it leaves from the Alt Hotel and runs 7 days/week during the summer.
Was einpacken?
Our weather
Our weather can be a little unpredictable and we are known for our RDF (rain, drizzle, and fog). You'll often need a sweater or coat even on our nicest days because the wind coming in off the Atlantic ocean can be chilly, just think of it as refreshing.
Verkehrsmittel
Rental Cars/Cabs/Car Share
Rental cars can be impossible to book during the summer, try booking in advance or look at public transit options. Cabs within the city can be fairly affordable and we should have a car share program up and running soon. If I'm available I'll certainly try to help you out!
