Once you’re in Tampa there are plenty of modes of transport to get around the city and to your Tampa serviced apartments. A popular way to get around the city is by car, but Tampa has the HART Bus, offers a bicycle hire called Coast Bikes, and if you’re feeling adventurous take the Pirate Water Taxi.
