S-Bahn lines S8 and S9 toward Hanau or Offenbach stop at Frankfurt Hauptwache in the city centre. Local bus lines 61 and 62 serve the airport grounds and nearby areas.

Private hire vehicles use marked pick-up zones outside both terminals. The drive into central Frankfurt typically takes 20 to 30 minutes, depending on traffic.

Frankfurt is a major cultural and financial centre on the River Main.

Visitors often start at the Main Tower, whose observation platform looks over the skyline, or at the historic Römerberg square. In late November and December the Römerberg holds the traditional Christmas markets.

The Sachsenhausen district is famous for its traditional cider taverns, at their best in the summer months, while the Zeil is the city's main shopping street.

For history, visit the Goethe House and the many museums along the Museumsufer.
