Car Rental in Cincinnati: The Paris of America

Cincinnati is in the state of Ohio. One of the USA’s older cities, it was settled in 1788 and is now one of the fastest growing conurbations in the mid-west. For much of the 19th Century, this city experienced a huge population boom, putting it at the higher end of US cities in terms of population. Founded after the American Revolution, many still regard this as the first true American city, as it had fewer Europeans influencing its creation.

What to Do In Cincinnati

Not only is it steeped in history, but Cincinnati also offers an intriguing mix of other activities. If you wish to get immersed in the cultural background of this city, your first stop should be the Cincinnati Art Museum. This offers a look at a wide range of art, covering artists all born in and around the city. Following on from here, you should visit the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, which documents the way that slaves had to enter the North. It even has a slave pen from a Kentucky farm on display.

Sport is also a big thing here, and, if you are a sports buff, you will know that the Cincinnati Reds were the first baseball team of the professional era. Head to the Great American Ball Park, their home stadium, and see if you can catch them at a game. The Reds Hall of Fame Museum offers a number of interactive exhibits, and, if you’re lucky, players will even pay a visit.

For some family-friendly fun, Kings Island is a top-of-the-line theme park in I71, just north of the city itself. The park incorporates some huge roller-coasters, including Diamondback and Planet Snoopy.

How to Find a Budget Rental Car

Renting a car doesn’t have to be the most expensive part of your holiday. If you are prudent and organized, it can, in fact, become a rather cheap option, particularly if there are a few of you to share the cost. Here are a few tips to bear in mind when it’s time to book that rental. And if you follow these, you are likely to make some great savings.

Being organized, and booking the car in advance, cannot be underestimated in terms of saving money. In many instances, car rental is cheaper when booked in advance, rather than waiting until the week before you travel; in Cincinnati, the price difference can be as much as $5. However, you can occasionally get good last-minute deals; though don’t bet on it!

Location can also make a difference, with Cincinnati Airport, for instance, being a significantly cheaper option than Cincinnati Downtown, with the former offering cars for around $28 per day and the latter $62 per day. It is also a good idea to return the car to the same depot. Of course, if your trip is a one-way journey, then this isn’t an option; but you should note that, if you don’t return your car to the original pick-up point, there will be extra fees incurred because of the inconvenience this causes.

Finally, the longer you book the car for, the better the daily rate will be. Booking for a week will incur a vastly lower daily rate then booking the car for just three days. In addition, determine what you will use the car for and how many people it will be accommodating, as you just might be able to rent a smaller model for a lower cost.
