Question 1

What are the major attractions in Frankfort?

Accepted Answer

If your trip to Frankfort is all sorted out but your itinerary is looking a little empty, we can give you a few hints and tips.

Kentucky State Capitol and Kentucky State University are interesting attractions that everyone should make time to explore. Map out your route and spend a couple of hours looking around each one.

Close to the center, Buffalo Trace Distillery is one sight you might like to consider putting on your to-do list. Liberty Hall and Salato Wildlife Education Center are also not far away and worth a detour.

Question 2

What are the best road trip destinations near Frankfort?

Accepted Answer

With some terrific road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it'd be much more difficult to enjoy everything that Paris, 35 miles away, has to offer. See the sights beginning with Duncan Tavern Historic Center, The Cane Ridge Meeting House and Claiborne Farm. The locals will also probably point you toward Georgetown, 17 miles away. If you only see one thing here, make sure it's Yuko-En on the Elkhorn Garden. (But we're also huge fans of Cherry Blossom Golf and Country Club and The Pavillion.)

Question 3

What kind of rental car should I get for Frankfort?

Accepted Answer

With your own rental vehicle, Frankfort is all yours to explore. People travel to this appealing city for lots of reasons, and here at CarRentals.com we have a unique car for each of them. The main priority for big families is space. Depending on the size of the family, that could mean anything from a full-size car to an SUV. Thrifty travelers usually opt for the affordability and great mileage of our smaller cars, such as an economy or a mini. If you're eager to create an impression in Frankfort, you could even have a glimpse at our special category for a ride that'll make any car lover go wobbly at the knees.

Question 4

Should I get a luxury rental car in Frankfort?

Accepted Answer

You'll be happy to hear that there's a huge variety of luxury rentals in Frankfort. What you opt for will depend on how much you want to spend and what you're planning to do.

Alternatively, if you're just after something to get you from A to B as economically as possible, we can help you out with a budget compact vehicle (or something else that won't break the bank).
