Whether you want to explore a new town or visit a nearby attraction, we have got you covered with the right SUV rental to get you there. So sit back, relax, and let us show you how to plan the best day trip EVER!

Choose a Destination

Looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city for a day? Then you'll need to start by choosing a destination for your day trip. And with so many options to choose from, it can be tough to narrow things down. First, think about what kind of activity you're looking for. Do you want to spend time outdoors hiking and exploring? Or are you looking for something more low-key, like visiting a quaint town or going for a leisurely drive? Once you know what kind of activity you're looking for, you can start to narrow down your options.

Plan the Route

Once you've decided on a destination, it's time to plan your route. You'll want to map out a few different possibilities, depending on where you're starting from, weather, and road construction. Once you have a few routes in mind, it's time to start mapping out specific stops. Look for places that interest you, whether it's a scenic overlook, a historic site, or just a place to stretch your legs. You can also look for restaurants or cafes that you might want to stop at for lunch or a snack. Planning ahead will help ensure that you have a great day trip out of the city.

Time to Hit the Road

Finally, you've planned the best day trip out of the city, and it's time to hit the road in your Empire Rent a Car rental. Our fleet of SUVs, trucks, vans, and cars is perfect for quick day trips or even weekends away from the city. No matter what you have planned, you're going to want a comfortable ride to take you there. Whether you plan on leaving from our Brooklyn or Long Island, NY, locations, we wish you nothing but the best and a safe trip! To schedule a reservation, give us a call at (800) 750-8782.
