By plane

Depending on flights, it may be easier and/or cheaper to fly into Fort Lauderdale International Airport (FLL) and drive (45 minutes South) into Miami proper.

By car

Get in your car and stomp on the gas! (Don't forget to buckle up!)

Interstate 95 (I-95) runs North-South along the East side of the city through downtown, Homestead and the Florida Keys. The Florida Turnpike runs North-South along the west side of the city, connecting Miami to Orlando and points North as well as leading to US1, through Homestead and into the Florida Keys. If you are on the west coast of Florida you can take I-75 south to Ft. Lauderdale. When you get off alligator alley, section of I-75 that crosses the state, you will take 595 East to Ft. Lauderdale.

Get around

Buses are available, but often slow and inconvenient. Taxis are generally expensive, but available at almost any time and place. Car rentals are the most convenient for of transportation for visitors, with local companies offering better prices but national chains offering more convenience vis-a-vis return policies and times.
