Where the wide cornfields stretch endlessly under the blanket of azure skies, Nebraska sits pretty as a picture. Enjoy the laid-back southern charm of the countryside as you explore this charming state.
Driving around Nebraska in your car rental, you’d probably come across plenty of cornfields, which is a common sight. Nicknamed the Cornhusker State, Nebraska produces the most ears of corn in America. But cornfields aside, Nebraska has more to offer in scenery than you would expect. Take the Nebraska Highway in your car rental to the Sandhills Journey Scenic Byway, Nebraska’s slice of scenic paradise. The natural beauty of the land lies in its clear pools of water, sand dunes, and rolling green hills. Go bird watching, hiking, or camping while you’re here. For a change of pace, visit the Toadstool Natural Park. The dry rocky Badlands terrain makes for the perfect photo opportunity. Have a picnic on the warm rocks, or hike alongside a guide to learn more about the area.
Nebraska’s rustic southern charm is especially strong in its unique towns, and are always worth a visit. Hop into your car rental and go on a Nebraska road trip to see all of them. Visit the bustling cityscape of Omaha. With a lively music scene and stylish skyscrapers, Omaha is a mix of charming southern sprawl and classy city. Spend your time wandering their cobbled streets and visiting roadside markets, or indulging in a live performance or two by the riverside. The peaceful town of Valentine lives up to its name with romantic limestone cliffs and memorable sunsets. Take it easy here and enjoy a cup of coffee with your loved one under the setting sun.
Drive out in your car rental to Nebraska’s best shopping options for some relaxing retail therapy. Visit the famed Old Market for its wide selection of local brands, fresh produce, and handmade goods. Housing many talented local artists and brands, find a fashion or furniture piece to bring home that you can get nowhere else at this historic market. Visit Nebraska Crossing Outlets to score a discount. Providing an array of both local and globally renowned brands at great prices, this is a must visit for a traveller on a budget. End your shopping trip by filling up on some homely southern fare at Neon Restaurant and Lounge. Enjoy slow cooked steaks and burgers absolutely bursting at the seams here.
