Transport

Omaha is a midwestern city and is therefore no stranger to sprawl. A rental car is the most convenient option for getting around, although a bus service is provided through Metro Area Transit. In the central downtown area, walking is a pleasant option when shopping and dining in the Old Market area; attractions like the riverfront and the Qwest Convention Center and Arena can also be reached on foot. However, taxi availability can be erratic, and for sightseeing outside this immediate area, a car is best.
