HOW TO GET AROUND LEXINGTON

  • By bus: Every 35 minutes the Lextran provides bus service from the downtown transit centre to many parts of the city including the airport. The buses do not run after 11:00 p.m. and before 5:00a.m. The fare is just 1$ making it very affordable.
  • On foot or bicycle: The Downtown area is very compact thus moving around on foot or bicycle is the best option.
  • By Taxi: Taxi services are also available for the public. In case you don’t have taxi service apps, book a taxi in advance as it is not available easily in Downtown.
