GETTING TO DOWNTOWN
Once you're here, getting to downtown is easy - the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport is just 15 minutes by taxi from downtown Minneapolis and 30 minutes by light rail.

To hop aboard the light rail, simply follow the ground transportation signs to the lower level and take the tram to the transit station. Purchase a ticket from the vending machines and take the escalator down to the train platform. More on ground transportation
