Tampa, Florida: A Place of Nonstop Adventure

The car rental of your choice awaits you when you travel to Tampa, Florida, aka "Big Guava." Travel around the city in your car rental to experience all things Tampa, or venture into traffic and head to nearby Orlando or Daytona Beach for the day. The palm trees and tropical weather anxiously await your arrival.

Walk on the Wild Side

Only 1.2 miles from downtown, the Florida Aquarium has over 7,000 plants and animals to see during your visit, including sea turtles and sharks. The aquarium is complete with splash pads and a 4D theater.

The next destination is Big Cat Rescue, just over 20 minutes away. Open since 1992, this massive wildlife preserve is home to more than 70 rescued cats of all stripes (and spots), including tigers, lions, and cheetahs. It's one of the largest accredited cat sanctuaries in the world. Call ahead and schedule an intimate experience on a guided tour with cats.

Fun in the Sun

Hop into your rental and head 11 miles east to Busch Gardens Tampa Bay. Here, you and your guests will enjoy an African-themed amusement park with some of the best roller coasters that Florida has to offer.

How about some water fun? Less than five minutes away is Adventure Island Water Park, a great place to cool off from the rays of the warm Tampa sun.

Beautiful Sunset Views

Overlooking the bay, just in time for the disappearing sunlight, are two must-visit locations. The Hula Bay Club is Tampa's waterfront restaurant. The sunset will be a beautiful backdrop to your traditional Hawaiian dinner.

As the sun goes down, the Tampa Riverwalk sparks to life with bright neon lights and live entertainment. It's sure to be the perfect nightcap for an adventurous day.
