Things to do and places to see in Amarillo, TX
Amarillo is a city where you can hike through red rock canyons in the morning, snap photos of roadside art by noon, and end the day with a smoky barbecue under a West Texas sunset. Set on the wide-open plains of the Texas Panhandle, it's full of character, contrasts, and just the right amount of weird and wonderful.
Rent the perfect car
Cadillac Ranch
No trip to Amarillo is complete without a visit to this iconic Route 66 attraction. It's bold, bizarre, and not something you'll want to miss. In a dusty field just off the I-40, you'll find ten graffiti-covered Cadillacs buried nose-first. Spray paint is not only allowed, but encouraged, so remember to bring a can, leave your mark, and snap a few surreal selfies while you're at it. It's kitschy, colorful, and wonderful, in the best possible way.
Palo Duro Canyon State Park
Just 30 minutes from the city, Palo Duro Canyon serves up rugged beauty and wild Texas landscapes like no other. Hike through red rock trails, catch sunrise views from the canyon rim, or saddle up for a horseback ride through the brush. It doesn't matter if you're an experienced adventurer or just here for a scenic drive; the "Grand Canyon of Texas" has plenty of jaw-dropping views without any of the crowds that usually follow suit.
6th Street Massacre Haunted House
If you think Amarillo is just about cowboys and canyons, think again. Tucked into the historic Route 66 district, this haunted house is not for the faint of heart. Expect cinematic sets, twisted immersive storytelling, and enough jump scares to haunt your road trip dreams long after you've left. Whether you're a horror fan or just in the mood for something different, it's a spooky, adrenaline-fueled detour that proves Amarillo isn't afraid to get dark.

Top tips for renting a car in Amarillo
The open road is calling, and with a little prep, your Amarillo adventure will be smooth from start to finish. Whether you're picking up your rental at the airport or planning to cruise through the Panhandle for a few days, here are a few things to keep in mind to help you get the most out of your journey.
How does airport pickup work at Amarillo Airport?
Forget about the long lines and complicated rental agreements at traditional car rental companies. When you book a car on Turo from Amarillo International Airport, your pickup is designed to be easy and free of frustration. After landing, open the Turo app to find out exactly where your host has parked your car — the Parking Garage, Preferred Parking, or Outdoor Parking. Your host will leave a ticket inside, so all you'll have to do is hop in and head out.
If you've arranged for an in-person handoff, just follow the signs to the TNC/Rideshare area on the lower level of the terminal drive.
How does drop-off work at Amarillo Airport?
Returning your car is just as easy. Head to one of the approved airport lots: the Parking Garage, Preferred Parking, or Outdoor Parking, and pull a ticket as you enter. Park the car, leave the ticket inside, and use Turo messaging to let your host know where to find it (be sure to include the section and parking stall number). If you're returning your car in person at the TNC/Rideshare area, just make sure you wait with the car until your host arrives.
How far is Amarillo Airport from Downtown Amarillo?
The Amarillo Airport is about 10 miles east of the downtown area, which is about a 15-minute drive away, depending on traffic. Whether you're heading straight to your hotel on Polk Street, grabbing lunch downtown, or checking out Cadillac Ranch before check-in, the airport's location makes getting around easy and efficient.
What are the road rules and driving conditions in Amarillo?
With its wide streets, minimal congestion, and classic Texas grid layout, driving in Amarillo is a breeze. Speed limits usually sit at around 30 miles per hour (mph) in town and can go up to 60–85 mph on different highways. Just watch for school zones and posted signs in residential neighborhoods where speed limits can drop.
That said, the weather can keep you on your toes. Amarillo sees all four seasons, sometimes in the same week. In winter, snow and icy bridges can make driving tricky, especially on rural routes. Summer, on the other hand, brings dry heat and the occasional dust storm, so always check the forecast before setting out.
Wildlife is also something you'll need to look out for, especially during early-morning or late-night drives outside the city limits. Deer and small animals can dart across the road, especially near Palo Duro Canyon or Lake Meredith. Take it slow on scenic drives; the views are worth it, and staying alert makes sure you get there safely.
What is parking like in Amarillo?
Parking won't be a problem when you're in Amarillo. You'll find plenty of spots downtown, especially around Polk Street, Tyler Street, and the block surrounding the Amarillo Civic Center, that are easy to access. If you're hitting up the Hodgetown Stadium or catching a show at the Globe-News Center for the Performing Arts, plan to arrive early for the best spots. Regardless of whether you're hitting up a museum or a BBQ joint, you won't be circling long.
Are there toll roads in Amarillo?
It's your lucky day! There are no toll roads here, just open skies and wide highways. Driving in and around Amarillo is entirely toll-free. It's one of the perks of road-tripping through the Texas Panhandle.
Where can I find gas stations and EV chargers in Amarillo?
Fuel stops are never far in Amarillo. You'll find plenty of gas stations along roads like Georgia Street, 3rd Avenue, and the I-40. If you're driving an EV, look for chargers near Western Plaza Drive, the I-40, and along Soncy Road. They're perfect spots where you can explore, or grab a coffee or a bite to eat while you recharge your battery.
Do I need to rent a car in Amarillo?
Most definitely. Whether you're here for the canyons, the culture, or the quirky charm, having your own set of wheels is the best way to experience it all. Public transportation is limited, and many of the region's best sights, like Palo Duro Canyon, Cadillac Ranch, and the Jack Sisemore RV Museum, are best explored at your own pace. With a car, you're free to roam every scenic overlook, roadside pit stop, and hidden gem without relying on bus schedules or missing out on spontaneous detours.
What rental car types can I find on Turo in Amarillo?
From rugged pickup trucks to elegant cruisers, the lineup from local hosts in Amarillo makes it easy to find a car that fits your travel style, budget, and plans. Here are some of the most popular vehicle classes to look out for:
- Luxury SUVs: Spacious and refined picks like the BMW X5 or Mercedes-Benz GLE are perfect for group trips or upscale comfort on long drives.
