Transportation

• Do your lodging accommodations include transportation around the estate?

  Biltmore does not offer complimentary estate-wide shuttle transportation.

  Estate roads do not have sidewalks, and walking between different areas of the estate is not recommended due to travel distances. To enjoy and explore all Biltmore has to offer, we strongly recommend guests arrive in their own vehicle.

  Biltmore offers complimentary ADA, Garden, and Lodging Shuttle service from the following locations:

  • Round-trip ADA Shuttle service to Biltmore House from the Park & Ride Building (with accessible parking in Lot E)
  • Round-trip Garden Shuttle service from Biltmore House to the Conservatory in the Walled Garden from April through December Round-trip guest

• Do you offer transportation between Asheville Regional Airport (AVL) and Biltmore?

  At this time, we do not provide transportation from the airport to the estate. Because Biltmore is best explored by car, we recommend reserving a rental vehicle in advance of your visit from any of the providers at the airport.

• What if I arrive by Taxi, Uber, or Lyft?

  If you plan to arrive by an external transportation service such as taxi, Uber, or Lyft, you will be dropped off at Biltmore House or Antler Hill Village. This is drop-off service only, not transportation between estate locations.

  Biltmore does not offer complimentary estate-wide shuttle transportation. Estate roads do not have sidewalks, and walking between different areas of the estate is not recommended due to travel distances.

  Biltmore Connect shuttle service is available for $15 per person per day (kids 9 and younger are free) and limited complimentary shuttle service. For more information, view Estate Transportation.

  *Biltmore Connect is not available for Groups

Dining and shopping

• Should I make dinner reservations prior to my arrival?

Estate admission and activities

• I’ve already booked my room reservation; how do I book additional estate activities for my stay?

  Please call our Reservations Department toll-free at 866-336-1245 (Monday–Friday, 8 a.m.–8 p.m. ET and Saturday and Sunday 9 a.m.–5 p.m.). Booking dining reservations and additional estate activities prior to arrival offers better availability.
