The Chicago Transit Authority manages the 8 "L" Train lines, each designated by a color and all passing through the interior of the Loop, as well as the city's bus network. To use the CTA's bus and subway network, you need a rechargeable Ventra card, which costs US$5 to purchase. You can buy single metro tickets, but this option is only worthwhile if you only take the metro a few times, as it is more expensive.

CHECKER TAXI

Taxi and VTC

It's easy to get a cab in Chicago: just wave your arm and there will be several stopping, especially in the downtown area. If you are in a restaurant or hotel, ask the staff to call you a cab, it is very common. There are different companies, but all are licensed and have a metal plate on the roof with their registration. A little tip: when you hail a cab, don't stand on the sidewalk, but on the sidewalk. Don't forget to leave a tip, about 15 to 20% of the amount.

It is better to arrive early to have a good place in the bus, unless you paid a little extra to reserve your seat.
