A trip to Seattle is a great way to try new things and explore some interesting sites, whether your reason for travel is business or pleasure. With so much ground to cover, a rental car is the best way to get around town at your own pace. You'll find renting a car at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) is easy and convenient. Once you have your key, a drive out to Mount Rainer will help you clear your head after your flight.

Key Facts

The observation deck at the Space Needle offers you 360-degree views of the city, Puget Sound and Mount Rainer. This iconic landmark was built to last and can stand up to winds in excess of 200 mph. The Chihuly Garden and Glass displays the sculpture of Dale Chihuly. As you gaze at the beautifully sculpted flowers in reds, yellows and oranges, it is hard to believe that they were all created from blown glass.

Hints and Tips

You can expect the flying time between Seattle and the Sacramento International Airport (SMF) to take less than two hours.
