Question 1

What are the major attractions in Grand Island?

Accepted Answer

If your trip to Grand Island is all booked but your itinerary is a bit on the empty side, we can give you a few hints and tips.

Island Oasis Water Park is one sight that lures plenty of travelers like yourself. If you still have room on that itinerary, consider squeezing in Jackrabbit Run Golf Course as well.

Question 2

What are the best road trip destinations near Grand Island?

Accepted Answer

With some great day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it'd be much more difficult to soak up everything that Hastings, 25 miles away, has to offer. Among your first stops here should be Brickyard Park, Hastings Museum of Natural and Cultural History and Elks Country Club Golf Course. Locals will also probably point you toward Kearney, 40 miles away. If you can only find time for one attraction here, make sure it's Big Apple Fun Center. (But we'd also highly recommend Great Platte River Road Archway and Hilltop Mall.)

Question 3

Where are the best convention centers near Grand Island?

Accepted Answer

If you're mostly here for work-related purposes, you'll likely be going to Heartland Events Center. You'll find it 2 miles away.

Question 4

What kind of rental car should I get for Grand Island?

Accepted Answer

Sure, you can explore Grand Island without a rental vehicle. But with so much to discover here, having one would definitely make your escape a whole lot more fun. If you want to get out of town and into nature, choose a rental car with a bit of power. A larger car like an SUV will get you to the area's prairies in style. Planning to spend most of your time in the city? A mini or compact car is the way to go. Maneuvering through narrow lanes and squeezing into tight parking spaces will be easy in one of these.

Question 5

Should I get a luxury rental car in Grand Island?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes the journey is more significant than the destination, which makes your car choice particularly important. If you're about to head off on an amazing road trip around Grand Island, a spacious SUV could be your perfect match. If you want the best possible price and plan on sticking mostly to the city, an economy car is hard to beat. All you need to do is decide what's going to be the best fit, pack up the car, and hit the highway.
