Look for the brightly colored city VIVA Culture bus. One route stops in front of the Museum and another stops on Broadway at the corner of our street, Jones Avenue (viainfo.net). The double-decker hop-on-hop-off City Sightseeing bus also stops in front of the Museum.
SAMA is on the Museum Reach of the River Walk with a landing for GoRio riverboats and taxis (goriocruises.com).
A SWell Cycle station is located in the Museum's parking lot. You can rent a bicycle at one of more than 60 locations, leave it at our station while you're here, and pick another one up when you're ready to go (https://sanantonio.bcycle.com).
Walk along the Museum Reach of the River Walk. The Museum is a 10-minute walk from the Pearl retail and restaurant complex and a 30-min walk from central downtown hotels with public art along the way.
