Phoenix airport car hire

Airport Code: PHX


Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is conveniently located just 3 miles east of downtown Phoenix. It is the main gateway into the city, and a major hub for Great Lakes Airlines and Southwest Airlines.

Interesting to note, Sky Harbor does not have a Terminal 1, but instead numbers its terminals from 2-4. You can take the Phoenix Transit Bus from the airport into the city, or prearrange your own ground transportation for your stay by booking a Phoenix Airport car hire to await your flight's arrival.

Although Phoenix is a city in the middle of a desert, its origins date back to agriculture by the Native Americans as early as the 11th century. The city we know today came about around 1911 with the completion of the first of several large reservoirs in the mountains north and east of Phoenix for Irrigation-based agriculture.

Over time it has become the regions primary political, cultural, and economic and transportation center, giving way to an excellent tourist location with plenty to do and see. Reserve a car hire for Phoenix Airport to begin your adventure in the desert city.

Attractions

Desert Botanical Garden

Phoenix car hire

A surprising number of traditionally used medicinal botanicals were originally sourced from the desert. Learn about the plant life of the Sonoran Desert, and of arid lands around the world. This area is also home to many lizards, birds, and the occasional roadrunner!

Pueblo Grande Museum and Archaeological Park

Take a Phoenix rental car over to the archaeological park for the most fascinating look into the ancient inhabitants of the Phoenix area. Pueblo Grande explores and interprets the remnants of the pre-Colombian Hohokam civilization.

Phoenix Mountains Park

For some excellent exercise during your trip to Phoenix take the one or two hour hike up to the top of Piestewa Peak, set right in the middle of Phoenix in Mountains Park. The peak offers a fantastic 360º view of the city and surrounding landscape.

If that’s too much exertion in the dry Arizona heat you can always pick up a meal and enjoy a nice lunch outdoors in the park's beautiful picnic areas.

Day Trips

Sedona

To truly experience the beauty of the landscape outside of Phoenix reserve a rental car and take the drive north up to Sedona. This makes for a good daytrip, but if you have three days or more you can take your adventure all the way to Las Vegas via the scenic Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon.

Camelback Mountain

Camelback Mountain is a very popular hiking destination. The view from the top is excellent. Get there by either the Macdonald/Tatum entry at Echo Canyon or the East entry Invergorden/Jackrabbit.

Montezuma Castle National Monument

Book a cheap rental car online and make the short drive down the I-17 between Phoenix and Flagstaff to this interesting national monument. Located near Camp Verde, this is an exceptionally beautiful area of Arizona.
