Why you should go to Chicago and choose car rental?

The Windy City, Chi-Town, Second City – whatever you call it, Chicago always lives up to its legendary character. Whether you’re going for the smoking hot blues, the sparkling Lake Michigan shoreline, the skyscrapers in the Loop or the laidback Midwest vibe, this vibrant city has all that and much more.

Getting there…

If you’re flying into Chicago, you’re bound to wind up deplaning at either O’Hare or Midway, which are both located a few miles west of the city. If you’re coming on Amtrak, your train will pull right into Union Station in the heart of downtown Chicago, affectionately called the Loop. Either way, you’ll want to get some wheels and head to your hotel, host’s house or BnB before exploring the town.

So much to see in Chicago

Chicago is the perfect city for both driving and walking, the only problem is narrowing down what you want to do!
Architectural gems in your car rental around Chicago At the turn of the 20th century, Frank Lloyd Wright surmised, “Eventually, I think Chicago will be the most beautiful great city in the world.” As an architect who was instrumental in making it great, he was also quite prescient. His masterpieces are not to be missed while you’re there, and the best way to tour his iconic buildings is to rent a Getaround car.
Start at Robie House, a US National Historic Landmark in the lovely neighborhood of Hyde Park. Then head up to the Loop for a stop at The Rookery. Lastly, wend your way westward to the historic village of Oak Park where Wright lived and worked.
Museums and Food with Getaround There is also no shortage of mindblowing museums in the Windy City, including the country’s second largest: the Art Institute of Chicago. If you go to Oak Park, check out the Museum of Science and Industry. And be sure to brush up on your dinosaurs and natural history at the sprawling Field Museum.

Chicago is also a foodie haven with a sizzling nightlife. Check out the world-class restaurant scene in the Loop and the famed Riverwalk. Why not do a taco crawl in the North Shore or gorge on some amazing Indian fare in Little India?
Chi-Town is one of the world’s friendliest cities, so we’re sure you’ll love your stay there. Have a wonderful trip and pleasant rides with Getaround!
