4) Car Rentals
For the adventurous who have a little more do-it-yourself spirit, cross country travel by car is an incredible way to see the states. With your own vehicle, you have more flexibility with travel time, schedule, and destination. It’s the perfect way to travel and see places that are off the beaten track which may otherwise be missed by tour companies. There are multiple care rental companies that offer very attractive deals to seniors. Sixt rent-a-car and E-Z Rent-A-Car give seniors 50 and older a 5% discount on rentals at any of their locations. Avis, Alamo, Budget and Hertz all give a 10% discount to those 50 and over. When you book, you may need to provide a special code to receive the discount. These codes and contact information can be found at seniordiscounts.com.
