  • Tolls: While North Carolina has a limited number of toll roads, it's wise to familiarize yourself with the routes or have an E-ZPass.

Reserve Early with Rhinocarhire:

For the best vehicle choices and attractive rates, it's wise to book your car hire with Rhinocarhire well in advance of your trip.


Choosing the Perfect Vehicle for North Carolina's Climate:

  1. Winter (December to February): If traveling to the mountainous regions, consider vehicles with winter tires and 4WD capabilities.
  2. Spring (March to May) & Fall (September to November): Moderate temperatures make standard vehicles suitable, though having a heater can be beneficial during cooler evenings.
  3. Summer (June to August): North Carolina's summers can get warm and humid. Opt for a car with effective air-conditioning.

Starting Your North Carolina Journey from Charlotte:

Charlotte is not only a bustling city filled with attractions like the NASCAR Hall of Fame and the National Whitewater Center, but it's also a starting point for various road trips. Venture out to the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway, the beaches of the Carolina coast, or the historic towns dotted across the state.
