Flying into Lexington

Travelers flying into Lexington will arrive at Blue Grass Airport, which is located 6 miles west of downtown Lexington at Blue Grass Airport, 4000 Terminal Drive #206, Lexington, Kentucky. Blue Grass Airport hosts a variety of shops and restaurants. If you are looking to pick up a few things you may have forgotten at home or some snacks for your ride to the hotel, stop by the Blue Grass Market Place for food, small items, and souvenirs. If you are hungry, you can get a salad or sandwich from Market Fresh or a coffee from Primo Cappuccino. There are two bars in the airport, The Taproom and the Knob Creek Bourbon Lounge. Once you have your food, you can hop on the LexTran bus, the only public transportation option. This bus takes you from the airport to the Transit Center on Vine Street in downtown Lexington for only $1 for a single ride; you can also pay $3 for a day pass. If you plan to use the bus system often during your stay, you can purchase a 20-ride pass for only $15. Aside from buses, there are a few rental car options, as well as taxi and shuttle services.

Explore Lexington

As the Horse Capital of the World, Lexington is home to one of America's most beautiful racetracks, Keeneland. Known for its amazing landscaping, Keeneland has a viewing area where you can view the horses up close. Associated with Keeneland is the Thoroughbred Center, which breeds and trains some of the most elite horses in the world. Visitors can go on a guided tour through this amazing facility. For those who are not so inclined to see horses, Triangle Park is a beautiful way to spend time outside. It is especially good at night when the cascading fountain is lit up. Sports fans should be sure to visit Rupp Arena for a University of Kentucky game if they are there during basketball season. The city also has the beautifully renovated Lexington Opera House, which is well worth seeing. Because of the city's many outdoor attractions, spring or late summer is the best time to visit Lexington. During the winter, temperatures drop between 25 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit, whereas they range between 65 and 90 degrees during the summer.
