Jenks is about six miles south of downtown Tulsa on US-75. The drive takes fifteen minutes in normal traffic. There is no practical public transit connection from Tulsa. Almost everyone arrives by car, and the town is easy to navigate — the Oklahoma Aquarium and Riverwalk Crossing are signed from the highway, and the antique strip along Main Street is a short drive west of the river.
Tulsa International Airport is about twelve miles north. Rental cars are the sensible choice if you are combining Jenks with a broader Oklahoma road trip.
