Flight
Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU)
Chapel Hill, NC is located 30 minutes (20 miles) from Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU). There is also an Amtrak station 20 minutes away in Durham, NC. Lyft/Uber/taxi or a rental car are the best options to get to town from the airport as public transit is fairly limited. If you are staying at one of the hotels listed below or other downtown accommodations, you can get away without a rental car for the weekend as the town is very walkable and we will have a shuttle to and from the wedding venue.
