Bike the Border-to-Border Trail from Gallup Park to downtown in under 10 minutes, rent wheels at the campus bike shop.
Common Scams to Avoid
Taxi drivers without city permits sometimes solicit rides near the baggage-claim curb at DTW; insist on the official taxi queue and verify the cab has a City of Ann Arbor or Detroit license plate and meter before boarding.
Rideshare drivers have been reported asking passengers to cancel the app trip and pay cash for a "flat rate" into Ann Arbor; decline, stay in the app, and use the designated rideshare pickup zone on the airport's upper level.
Off-airport parking shuttles may advertise "free first day" coupons online but add hidden facility fees at checkout. Book only through the official airport or parking-lot website and read the final total before submitting payment.
