    Downtown Indianapolis is very walkable! Most attractions are within a few blocks of the downtown hotels and Monument Circle, including the RCA Dome & Convention Center, museums, White River Park, Conseco Fieldhouse, Circle Center, and IUPUI campus. Signs posted almost every block guide you to your destination.

    Dude, public transportation in Indy, such as it is, is scary. You really need to have a car. There's just no other way of getting from A to B. I-465 is brilliant. Visiters-it's just a big circle around the city, so you can't get that lost. Indy roads are perpetually under construction, and snow removal in winter is...entertaining.

    If you are in Illinois, Kentucky, Western Ohio, or Southern Michigan, Indianapolis is only a few hours drive and is easy to get via the Interstates 65, 69 & 70. Other than that, your probably flying into Indianapolis International Airport. Once in Indy, rent a car or if you are only staying downtown just rent cabs.

    Indianapolis is a small city, so, getting around town in a rental car is easy and quick. From downtown, you can get to any of the suburbs in twenty minutes or less.

    Because of its size and the ease of parking, Indianapolis does not have any real mass transit. I do not even think the bus system is that extensive! So, if you do not rent a car, take a cab. Those do exist in this 'one horse' city. Walking also works for all things “downtown.”

    Public transportation in Indy stinks, a few buses run on major routes but if you want to get around town you'd better have a car (reinforcing the idea that Indy is more of a "hyper-suburb" rather than a city.)
    But for s***s and giggles you can always ride the monorail. This piece of outlandish political pork connects the hospitals at the IUPUI campus with Methodist Hospital just north of downtown. The 10 minute ride provides some interesting views, and a planned third stop will dump riders (if there are any) off at the north end of the canal walk.

    Drive around, if you do not want to walk, but do not drive your car into a pond!
