Car rental in Arizona
Lodged between Northern Mexico and Southern Utah, Arizona is a land of deserts and vast canyons, exposed mountains, cacti-studded plains, blazing sun and ghost towns. Arizona is known mainly for its deserts, Indian reservations and the Grand Canyon. The climate in Arizona is particularly hot and the land is replete with fascinating and dramatic landscapes which stretch for hundreds of kilometers and open plains through which the Colorado River, which flows into Northern Arizona from the peaks of the Rocky Mountains, winds on down to join the tributaries of the Rio Grande in the southernmost part of the State.
Albar Ltd operates in Arizona through two international, world-renowned car rental companies, Dollar and Thrifty. The widespread distribution of Albar's vehicles in Arizona, its large selection of 4X4 vehicles and minivans and the availability of fast and comfortable roads, makes hiring a vehicle from Alba in Arizona into a real experience which can only enhance your trip to the country.
The capital of the State is Phoenix, which is the eighth largest city in the U.S. and in climatic terms one of the hottest urban centers on the planet. One of the attractions worth a visit in Phoenix is the Heard Museum: The cultural and arts center of the place's original indigenous population. The city of Phoenix and its suburbs are nicknamed "Sun Valley" and are a very popular vacation center during the winter months. The attractive Desert Sky shopping mall is located in the western section of Phoenix and is a major place of entertainment for the city's residents.
Arizona has numerous wonderful touring routes and a stretch of the famous Route 66 from Chicago to Los Angeles passes through the northern section of the country. Through the car rental companies Dollar and Thrifty, Albar Ltd provides a 24 hour a day breakdown service, whether you happen to be located in a large city or in the countryside. Arizona's principal attraction is the Grand Canyon National Park, which includes approximately 400 kilometers of ravines through which the Colorado River flows and which is regarded as one of the world's most stunning nature sites and landscapes.
Northern Arizona also contains the Petrified Forest and the Painted Desert. The desert stretches from the Grand Canyon and the southwest for scores of kilometers containing colored sedimentary rocks and volcanic debris. The access routes to the area are unpaved and most desert tours are undertaken on foot. The small town of Cameron is used as a starting point for hiking in the Painted Desert.
