Bus to Conyers

Conyers is a small Atlanta-suburb city in Rockdale County, about 25 miles east of central Atlanta along Interstate 20. It's the seat of the county and grew from a railroad town into a working suburb that retained the older central downtown grid, with brick storefronts on Olde Town's Centre Street and Commercial Street. The bus to Conyers drops you on the southwest side of the city at the Texaco Plaza on Klondike Road SW, with Olde Town Conyers, the Georgia International Horse Park (the 1996 Olympic equestrian venue) and Black Shoals Park reachable by short rideshare. People come for the Olde Town antique shops, for the access to the Monastery of the Holy Spirit south of the city, for the Georgia International Horse Park trails and events, and as a quieter base from which to access Atlanta. A Conyers bus ticket lands you in a working Atlanta suburb without the airport or Marta crowds.

Greyhound stops in Conyers

Conyers has one Greyhound stop: the Texaco Plaza flag stop at 1410 Klondike Road SW, on the southwest side of the city. Buses board in the gas station parking lot, so plan to arrive at least 15 minutes before departure to be in position when the bus pulls in. The stop is functional rather than a full terminal — the gas station has restrooms and basic snacks, and the parking lot is straightforward.

The Klondike Road location sits south of central Conyers and Olde Town, with the Georgia International Horse Park complex a few minutes east. From here it's a short rideshare into Olde Town for the antique shops, restaurants and the central railway depot, or out to the Horse Park if that's your destination. Have your ticket ready on your phone or printed for boarding.

If you're being met, the parking lot is straightforward and rideshare drivers know the location. The most useful first move after arrival is a rideshare into Olde Town Conyers — the brick streetscape on Centre Street and Commercial Street is the most walkable concentration in the city.

Getting around Conyers after your bus to Conyers arrives

Conyers is a small suburban city built around the Klondike Road and GA 138 corridors, with Olde Town as a compact walkable centre. From the bus stop, a rideshare to Olde Town is the practical first move. Once on Centre Street or Commercial Street in Olde Town, walking covers the central restaurants, the antique shops, the Olde Town Pavilion and the historic railroad depot.

For longer trips around Rockdale County, a rental car is the practical option — there is no comprehensive public-transport network through the suburb. Rideshare runs reliably across the city and is the realistic option for evening trips. The Georgia International Horse Park, the Monastery of the Holy Spirit and Black Shoals Park are all rideshare destinations from Olde Town.

For Atlanta to the west, the Xpress GA 426 commuter bus runs from the Conyers Park-and-Ride to downtown Atlanta on weekdays during peak hours — useful if you want a day trip to central Atlanta without driving. MARTA's heavy rail does not extend out to Rockdale County. Cycling is also viable on the Heritage Park trails and the Olde Town historic district streets. Conyers sits at a higher elevation than central Atlanta, which makes the summer evenings slightly cooler.

Best time to visit Conyers

Spring and autumn are the windows. From late March through May the cherry blossoms come in (and the city's cherry blossom festival pulls a regional crowd), the Olde Town antique shops fill up with weekend visitors and the temperature sits in a pleasant range for walking. October and November bring the Georgia fall — cooler air, comfortable walking weather and the Olde Town Fall Festival drawing visitors into the central downtown.

Summer is warm and humid, with afternoons regularly in the 80s and into the 90s. The Horse Park trails work better in the early morning, and the indoor restaurants and antique shops in Olde Town stay comfortable through the heat. Plan walking and outdoor sightseeing for early morning, lean into the air-conditioned indoor venues in the afternoon, and respect the late-day Atlanta-area thunderstorms when they roll in.

Winter is mild by Northern standards but real. Daytime temperatures sit in the 40s and 50s through January and February, with occasional cold snaps and the rare snow event that can bring the Atlanta metro to a halt. The Olde Town shops and the Monastery of the Holy Spirit gift shop both stay open through winter, and a quiet weekday afternoon at the monastery is genuinely worth having if you're in the area.

The antique shops and Olde Town historic district hand you a Saturday morning on Centre Street with lunch at one of the restored brick buildings. The Monastery of the Holy Spirit is the quieter alternative — a weekday morning at the gift shop, the bonsai garden and the Liturgy of the Hours. The Olympic-era Horse Park works on either an event date or a casual mountain-bike afternoon on the trails.
