Full Albany Travel Guide » Albany Interactive Map » Print This Article »
Getting around Albany and the Capital Region entirely depends on where you are staying and what you want to see. If you plan on spending most of your time within the city of Albany, most downtown sights are within walking distance of each other. Many sights outside of downtown and even outside of the city of Albany can be reached by the public bus system, the CDTA. CDTA fares are $1.50 each way or $4 per day, no matter the distance traveled, and can be paid in $1.50 notes, coins or with prepaid cards of various denominations.
If you are traveling to Saratoga Springs or the Adirondacks, however, renting a car would probably be easier. Having access to a car is helpful in this region - The area is served by an efficient auto infrastructure, and traffic is not often encountered except during rush hour.
