Information on NFL Hall of Fame/Akron-Canton Airport & Transportation?


Travel Info
We are flying into Akron/Canton airport for a one day trip to visit the NFL Hall of Fame. Is there transportation available from the airport to the HoF? Appx how much should we expect to pay for a cab? Or should we just rent a car for the day? How long should we plan for the visit to the HoF? We will be traveling with our two sons (ages 9 & 6). Any other info you could provide that would be helpful would be appreciated!!

Travel Tips
I'd get a rental car. The Hall Of Fame really isn't right in the middle of a fun area of town. Canton has some things to do, but you will need a rental car to get around. I'd also check out the surroundings on Google Earth (shows satellite images of the area).

I don't know how much they've expanded since I've been there, but it should take you a few hours to get through everything at the HoF. After that, you can make your way down to the Belden Village area (10 minutes away from the Hall of Fame) to find something to eat (there's a mall there: Westfield Shoppingtown..but most people remember it as the Belden Village Mall) --there is an extraordinarily high number of restaurants for the area. There is one really nice place to eat at in downtown Canton (which isn't by Belden Village)--Peter Shearer's, but you need a reservation and it's pretty expensive (and probably not for kids). Just head out to the Belden Village area for your food needs. They have something for everyone.

The Akron/Canton airport is nice; much better than flying into the Cleveland airport. But--Whatever you do, get a rental car. You will be hard pressed to find a cab to take you anywhere after they drop you off at the HoF. You'd have to call them and request a pick up, and it will get pricey.

Last thing: Ohio weather is weird. I don't know when you're coming here, but March/April is unpredictable. Sometimes we get snow. Sometimes it's ridiculously hot. Sometimes it's in between. You never know. A couple weeks ago we had 72 degree weather, and then two days later we had 4 inches of snow on the ground. Really weird. Well that's all I can think of for now! Have fun in Canton!

Rental car is my suggestion. You might find some information here in this website http://www.cleveland.com
