If you'd like to be closer to the city, consider taking a flight to Lancaster Airport instead.
From book and clothing stores to one-of-a-kind art galleries, Downtown Lancaster has it all.

After booking your vehicle on Turo and picking it up, you'll be just blocks away from The Demuth Museum and restaurants like Rachel's Cafe & Creperie.

Pickup near or at Airports
Whether you're soaking in the rich history of Lancaster or going shopping at Park City Center, renting a car allows you to map out every step of your trip without compromising. Before you set out on your adventure, consider these car rental tips.
Whether you're taking a scenic drive along Route 340 or navigating the busy downtown streets, driving in Lancaster and the surrounding areas is easy if you stick to the rules of the road. The highest volume of traffic typically occurs on Route 30 during rush hour. While highways usually allow you to reach your destination faster, consider driving the back roads during rush hour to avoid congestion.
The speed limit on the rural and urban highways in and around Lancaster can range from 55 to 65 mph. During the winter, PennDOT may reduce the speed limit to 45 mph on some highways, such as Route 222. When you're driving in residential areas or Downtown Lancaster, the speed limit can drop to 25-35 mph.
If you're visiting Lancaster during the winter, consider booking a vehicle with AWD or 4WD. The town receives an average of 18 inches of snow every year. Snow most often falls in January and February. To safely navigate the streets of Lancaster during the winter, you may need an SUV like the Toyota Grand Highlander or a pickup truck like the GMC Sierra 1500.
Parking spots are prevalent throughout Lancaster. If you're spending the day in the downtown area and want to keep your vehicle in a garage, the top spots in the area are Duke Street Garage and North Queen Street Garage. Lancaster offers eight parking garages and lots you can access with your rental vehicle. The city is also home to 1,052 metered spaces that accommodate on-street parking. When you park in one of these spaces, the rate is $0.25 for six minutes, which equals $2.50 per hour. There's a two-hour limit for on-street parking.
If you drive within the city limits of Lancaster, you won't travel on any toll roads. However, Pennsylvania does have toll roads, the primary of which is the Pennsylvania Turnpike that extends across 550 miles of roadway. Let's say you drive from Lancaster to Philadelphia. The most efficient route requires you to drive on Interstate 76, which is part of the Pennsylvania Turnpike. There are several toll points along the way.
While tolls can be frustrating, one advantage of driving in Pennsylvania is that the state has gone cashless with its tolls. With an E-ZPass, you'll have a transponder in your vehicle that allows you to pay as you drive. Otherwise, you'll be billed through the mail.
Whether you're driving a Tesla Model Y or a Nissan Altima, it's easy to keep your rental vehicle running in Lancaster. If you need to fill up at a gas station, the top brands that have numerous locations in town include Sheetz, Sunoco, and Speedway. You'll also have access to a Costco gas station at 1875 Hempstead Rd.
Need to charge your vehicle before driving to Philadelphia? The city hosts 344 public charging stations. Over 40 of these stations are free to use. If you're interested in recharging your car with DC fast charging, there are over two dozen ports of this type in town. ChargePoint, EVGateway, and Tesla Supercharger have the most stations in the area.
Whether you're in the city for a few days or several weeks, the best way to get around is with a rental car. Downtown Lancaster is a highly walkable area with beautiful cobblestone paths and sidewalks. However, the town becomes less walkable as you expand outward from the center.
If you plan to visit D.F. Buchmiller County Park in the southern section of Lancaster before traveling farther north to reach the Go ‘N Bananas Family Fun Center, driving is a necessity. While the Red Rose Transit Authority allows you to navigate the city by bus, a rental car is the only way to have total control over your daily schedule.
