The bus service in Kansas City is offered by The Metro, which mostly runs within the urban core, where most of the city's tourist attractions are located. Perhaps, the most useful line for tourists are The MAX (Metro Area eXpress) and 57 buses, which connect downtown, Westport, Crown Center, the Plaza, Brookside, and Waldo.
The standard fare for riding The Metro is $1.50/trip, transfers being available from the bus driver (expire two hours after issue). Day Passes are also available for a cost of $3.
Most major bus routes are equipped with bike racks, which makes it easy for visitors who are on a budget, while staying in Kansas City, to get around, because they can combine riding the bike with riding the bus, to get to the desired destination, and therefore, save money.
The intercity bus service is offered by Greyhound and Megabus and the passenger rail service is provided by Amtrak, which serves the city via the recently renovated and cavernous Union Station, located at Main and Pershing.
