Newark Travel Guide: Transportation & Trip Planning

Traveling to Newark couldn't be any easier. Located just 8 short miles from New York City, Newark offers quick and easy access with dozens of transportation options to choose from. Newark Liberty International Airport, welcoming over 40 million travelers per year, is just a five-minute drive from downtown and can be reached via AirTrain, Amtrak, NJ Transit bus, or taxi.

Being a transportation hub, you can get anywhere you need to go. New York City can be easily reached in 20 minutes or less by subway(PATH), train (NJ Transit or Amtrak), or one of the many buses (NJ Transit, Bolt, Greyhound) servicing the area. Take the light rail to explore more around town, or set off on foot and mess around in our urban playground.

Our happening office is located in the heart of downtown.
