We recommend landing before 2 pm to avoid the worst traffic. You can rent a car, grab a taxi or Uber, or try out our public transportation. You can ride the bus all the way down to downtown Olympia, though you will want to check the schedule. If you opt to take Amtrak, please plan to call a car, as the station is a couple miles out of town.
