Getting Around and Maps

There are several ways to navigate the city, including public transportation and transportation services such as taxis, rental cars, charter services and ride-hailing services such as Uber, Lyft, and zTrip.

The Valley Metro Rail runs from central Phoenix, through downtown, to Tempe and Mesa in the east. Stations are close by and run right by some of the area’s top attractions, such as the Heard Museum, Phoenix Art Museum, Arizona Science Center, Chase Field, PHX Arena (formerly Talking Stick Resort Arena), Arizona State University and more.

A one-way pass on the light rail costs $2 or an all-day pass is $4, which can be purchased at the ticket vending machines at each station.

Amtrak's southern most route, Sunset Limited, also makes a stop in nearby Maricopa.
