Traveler advice
Getting around
Get a Car!
In Texas just about everything is bigger, and so are distances. Plan on reliable transportation. Uber may not be your most cost-effective way to find your spots across the 4th-largest metro in the US. A rental car is the preferred option for those adventurers.
