Top tips for renting a car in Grapevine
- To realize movement flexibility during your stay in Grapevine, consider renting a car. Compared to the public means of transport that may require you to comply with their fixed schedules and routes, car rentals in Grapevine will allow you to move in and outside the city with ease. With your rental car, you’ll manage to drive through the historic main street district towards the LEGOLAND Discovery Center within the Grapevine Mills for some good interaction with nature.
- There are a number of significant highways in Grapevine, Texas, which are essential for driving your cheap car rentals in Grapevine. The popular Grapevine Mills Mall, for instance, is located next to the important east-west Grapevine Mills Parkway. It gives access to most local stores, eateries, and hotels. You can avoid traffic by using the frontage routes, which run adjacent to the freeway. State Highway 26 (SH 26) is a significant north-south route that passes through Grapevine's city core. Many of the city's attractions, including the DFW International Airport, Grapevine Lake, and the historic downtown, are accessible from there. Taking the frontage roads or the SH 121/SH 26 bypass will help you to avoid traffic on this road.
- The majority of travelers flying in Grapevine would land at DFW airport. The Airport is located about 6 mi from the city center. To conveniently access both the city center and its outskirts, you may prefer to rent a car. At the airport, Grapevine car rentals, among them Alamo, Sixt, and Dollar, are accessed at the airport’s 24-hour Rental Car Center. The center is located at 2424 E. 38th Street, near the south entrance of the Airport. For the arriving passengers, you can follow the Rental Car signs toward your designated pick-up area on the lower level of the terminal. There, you’ll board a Rental Car shuttle bus to the airport’s 24-hour Rental Car Center, about 10min drive away.
- There are a few toll roads in Grapevine, but the main ones are the TEXpress Lanes on State Highway 121, the DFW Connector TEXpress Lanes, a project of the DFW Connector that aims to improve the flow of traffic at the intersection of State Highway 121 and State Highway 114, and the North Tarrant Express, which is operated by the North Texas Tollway Authority and connects Interstate 35W in Fort Worth with State Highway 121 in Grapevine. The road traverses through several cities, including Haltom City, Southlake, and Keller.
- If you’re driving your rented car through the historic main district, downtown Grapevine, you may need to be more careful, observant, and attentive. During weekends and holidays, the district is full of both local and international tourists who usually take a leisurely stroll down the sidewalks. As they enjoy and appreciate how the quaint Texas city’s renovated historic buildings have majorly been re-purposed into boutiques and other types of outlets while preserving their authentic historic charm, they usually crisscross the road. You may need to maintain Grapevine City Council’s recommended 25 mph speed limit.
- While all roads in Grapevine require cautious driving, there are some that require extra attention due to higher car volumes, narrow lanes, and limited visibility. TX-121 is a major highway that runs through the northern part of Grapevine, connecting to other cities in the area. When merging into TX-121 from other routes or changing lanes, you should exercise extra caution because traffic might be congested and moving quickly. The downtown area of Grapevine is centered on Main Street, a historic street. You should particularly attentive when driving Grapevine car rentals on this road because it is narrow and has numerous pedestrian crossings, especially during the tourist seasons when foot traffic is heavy.
- Just like any other city, Grapevine’s roads’ traffic flow would vary. During rush or commute hours, most roads face traffic snarl-ups. In the morning, you’re likely to experience traffic jams between 7 am, and 8 am. The most affected lanes would be those heading to the business district. In the evening, you’re also likely to realize traffic jams between 5 pm and 7 pm. During weekends and holidays, the traffic flow from, and to the city center would averagely be smooth. However, you may still need to check your speed limit so as to remain on the right side of the law.
