Liberty Bridge at Falls Park on the Reedy... and Downtown Greenville

Liberty Bridge is just one part of this attraction, but it's the clearest symbol of the area. Dubbed Greenville's most iconic image by Mayor Knox H. White in 2014, Liberty Bridge connects both banks of the gorgeous Reedy River. Listen as water cascades over the modest but beautiful Reedy River Falls, set in the heart of downtown Greenville. Falls Park sits in the middle of the city's downtown, so after you've parked that premium SUV and browsed through the local shops, it's the perfect place to unwind before continuing your grand Greenville journey.

Peace Center for the Performing Arts

Speaking of Falls Park, just a stone's throw away, you'll find the Peace Center for the Performing Arts. With an outdoor amphitheatre and several indoor auditoriums, the Peace Center brings in everything from world-class Broadway shows to jazz standards and more. Atop six acres of storied Greenville land, the Peace Center truly is the hub of arts and culture not just in Greenville but in the entire Upstate. Celebrate the holidays, experience musicals both classic and new, or take in nature to the sweet sounds of live music: The Peace Center has it all.

Greenville History Tours

Greenville was dubbed one of America's Top New Foodie Cities in 2018 by People, and its residents haven't stopped pushing that legacy since! To experience true down-home cookin' along with the history of Greenville's food scene, check out John Nolan's Greenville History Tours. Nolan didn't just start the first tour company in Greenville—he started what USA Today has declared the #3 Food Tour in America! Whether you follow the Greenville BBQ Trail, embark on the 80-mile journey that is the Carolina Countryside Tour, or stick around town for the Greenville Coffee Tour, Nolan will lead you on an expedition for the best bites Greenville has to offer.

Road trip car rental

Considering both Atlanta and Charlotte are about the same distance away from Green Vegas (a local nickname!), it's a splendid stop to spend some time. Don't just fill up your tank and head out—your rental car might get you from North Carolina to Georgia without a top-off, but you'll miss out on so much that Greenville has to offer. Cruise the city in style and take in the history and culture before heading out.

Long-term car rental

With an ever-growing food scene and a reputation for the friendliest people in the USA, you might not ever want to leave Greenville! Whether you have a long-term work project, an extended vacation, or a move to Greenville planned, a vehicle will let you experience downtown, explore the city's history and food culture, and discover the entire Upstate.

Camping car rental

Greenville really earns its name with the verdant views, giving you picturesque backdrops for hiking, camping, and just spending time outdoors alike. It's no surprise that Greenville is home to myriad campgrounds—the Paris Mountain State Park is just five miles from downtown Greenville proper! Rent a luxury SUV for a glorious glamping adventure, or pack a reliable rented favorite to spend time under the stars alone or with loved ones. Just remember to stick to roads and clear trails for safety!

Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport (GSP)

If you're starting your time in Greenville by plane, you'll want to forego the Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport car rental counter. Rent on Turo and pick up that sport sedan from Parking Garages A and B or Economy Parking Lots 1-3. Because of GSP's location just outside Greenville, car rental is always a good idea. Instead of charging a one-time ride into Greenville, give yourself the freedom of an electric SUV or whatever vehicle you'll get the most out of. And if you're picking up in person, head on over to the dedicated curbside location in the Airport Green Zone, located at the southern end of the airport terminal. Experience Southern hospitality before hitting the road and putting Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport in your rear view!

Greenville Station

Making your journey by train? Don't worry about transportation. Your economy car rental will be waiting for you at Greenville Station, ready for your trip. Just follow the instructions in the Turo app to pick up your vehicle and slide into a luxury sedan with a good ol' Southern greeting.

Downtown Greenville

Sometimes, you want to get right to the best part of your adventure, and with plenty of food and fun, downtown Greenville is a great place to do just that! Follow the instructions in the Turo app for the right pickup spot downtown. Catch a show at the Peace Center, or get your grub on at Jianna; then, hop into a full-size sedan for the freedom to explore Greenville however you want.

Airport pickup made easy

Next time you fly, don’t wait in line and fill out forms — pick your car up at hundreds of popular airports.

Convenient pickup & return

Rather than hustling at the busy terminal curbside, take your time picking up the car at approved parking lots or garages. Check in, load up your luggage, and get comfortable with the car without a big rush.

No lines, no paperwork

Skip the rental car counter at hundreds of popular airports without waiting in line or filling out paperwork. Find and pick up the car with the app and hit the road in no time.

Free cancellation

Cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts, unless you opt to receive a non-refundable trip discount when you book. Because life happens and it helps to be flexible when it does.

Top tips for renting a car in Greenville


The key to a premium SUV or economy car rental isn't just your way into a great vehicle—it's also your key to a great time in Greenville. It gives you the freedom to shop 'til you drop in downtown Greenville before checking out the Conestee Nature Preserve or discovering the Roper Mountain Science Center. To get the most of your time in the city, here are some top tips for your Greenville car rental.


What are the road rules and driving conditions in Greenville?


Whether you visit for the holidays or head to Greenville at the peak of summer, your drive should be smooth. Wintertime only brings a few inches of snow at most, while March sees the city's most rain at an average of 4.2 inches over the entire month. Some roads are narrow and windy, but for the most part, it'll be smooth sailing—or, rather, driving. You'll usually see a speed limit of 30 miles per hour on roads both urban and suburban, but be aware that it can vary on the freeways. For instance, the I-385 has a limit of 55 miles per hour in the Greenville area while Hwy 25's limits change depending on where you are.


What is parking like in Greenville?


You'll find plenty of parking throughout Greenville. The downtown area alone hosts 800 free on-street spots along with 14 different public parking facilities! Keep an eye out, though; some spaces may be valid only for two hours, generally between the hours of 9:00 am to 5:00 or 6:00 pm.


Are there toll roads in Greenville?


There aren't any toll roads in the majority of South Carolina, but the state does have one: Interstate 185, also called the Southern Connector, which forms a loop that goes through the center of the city. Only two sections toll drivers: exit 10 (SC Highway 20) and exit 4 (Fork Shoals Road, with a smaller toll plaza just south of the exit).


Are there gas stations and EV chargers in Greenville?


Of course! As Greenville is one of the largest cities in the Upstate, there are plenty of fuel stops for locals and visitors alike. Many gas stations are located along freeways, perfect for easy access when you need to fill that sport sedan. Opted for an electric SUV to cart the family around in style? Don't worry. Blink, ChargePoint, Tesla, and other providers have charging stations scattered throughout the city as well, so you'll never end up stranded.


Do I need to rent a car in Greenville?


If you're sticking just to downtown Greenville, you might be able to get away without renting a premium luxury SUV or eco-friendly sedan. For the full Greenville experience from Frankie's Fun Park to Spartanburg excursions, though, it'll be a lot easier—on you and your wallet—to rent a car. Why limit what you can do?

All drivers must have a valid driver’s license and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.
