How to get around Alice Springs

Once your Greyhound bus to Alice Springs arrives at Leichhardt Terrace, you’ll find that Alice Springs is small enough for you to be able to reach most parts of town on foot. Public transport options are somewhat limited here, with regular bus services that run about every one and a half hours from Monday to Friday and on Saturday morning.

Taxis are available from the taxi rank on the corner of Todd Street and Gregory Terrace, near the Alice Springs Visitor Information Centre.

Alice Springs is mostly flat except for Anzac Hill, so riding a bike is a great way to explore the town. Longhorn Bikes, a local company that rents out bicycles, operate out of most hotels and hostels in Alice Springs.
