Getting around in Raleigh
Taxi
If you don't like driving and wouldn't want to hire a car, then commuting
through taxis is more comfortable. The taxi drivers are polite and charge by meter
and they can easily become your unofficial guide while driving you to places. Fares
are set by the state department and are always non-negotiable.
Car Hire
Unless time isn't an issue with you and you don't mind waiting for hours
to get into a bus, a car is a must to experience Raleigh. Raleigh Car Hire is definitely worth "going
in" for as it will give you the freedom to see the city at your own pace. Usually
a person between the age brackets of 18 to 75 years with a valid license is allowed
to drive a private, non-commercial vehicle in the city. If you like to drive,
don't forget to carry your driver's license. For foreigners, International
Driving Permit is compulsory.
Depending on the way you're travelling, there are many types of Raleigh car rental services that can make it
convenient for you to move comfortably between hotels, places of interest,
restaurants and airports. Pick from economy vehicles to go for a trip around the
city to full size vehicles for longer inter-city excursions - all at best
prices.
