<p>S1 will spend the weekend with a friend in a dorm to check out Davis, flying into Sacramento on April 18. How to get a kid who can’t rent a car to the campus? Is there a bus or train?</p>
<p>How would I find the schedules and is it necessary to buy a ticket in advance?</p>

<p>I think I would go by shuttle or taxi if I couldn’t get a ride.</p>
<p>Thanks for the bus info and taxi suggestion.</p>
<p>How long is the trip from Sacramento airport to Davis? </p>
<p>How much would the taxi cost, in other words?</p>
<p>if you have the patience, take the yolobus that goes directly from the SAC airport to UC Davis MU. It’s cheap and is free if you’re a student. The only down side is that it takes approximately an hour due to stops in places like Winters and Woodland.</p>
<p>Oh and a taxi would take about 20minutes or less.</p>
<p>Thanks, weirdhobo. This is an admitted student who can’t make the Decision Day on the 17th, but wants to visit and can stay with a friend overnight on the 18th. We’re flying him in on his own. If it’s only 20 minutes, I’ll have him take a taxi. No point adding a long bus ride to what will become his first impression of the university.</p>
<p>well considering the bus is what he will be taking every time, if he doesnt get a ride or something, he goes to/from home, i thot it was a good idea to see what it was like so you know what to do.</p>
<p>cf: I appreciate the link and the info. He’ll use it in the future if he decides to attend.</p>
<p>if you have an ID card and I have taken that bus to go to Sacramento. Its about maybe 30-40 mins from the airport to UCD. But, its convient and safe. Also on the day before Thanksgiving, they run hourly shuttles to the airport from the UC Davis MU direct to the terminal.</p>
<p>Im pretty sure that its about 15-20 mins. Sac to Davis, the cities, is about 20 mins.</p>
