Directions & Transportation
Downtown Tacoma is extremely walkable, and easy to explore from the vantage point of two feet. If you’re planning on venturing further afield, there are car rentals, car shares, buses, light rail that connects to Seattle and a number of commuter trains. For those driving into town, we offer self parking for $22 a day.
