Why rent a car in Nevada?

Of course, one of the most popular trips to make from Las Vegas is to the Grand Canyon. It's only about a four-and-a-half-hour drive away, but you'll definitely need a car to make it.

Crossing Borders
Nevada is bordered by Oregon, Idaho, California, Utah, and Arizona. Many car rental providers will permit you to pick up a rental car in a neighboring state and later drop it off in Nevada, but there'll be a potentially hefty one-way fee for doing such.
If you use Nu Car Rentals, you'll only be able to travel to California, Utah, and Arizona. With other suppliers, you can drive to all of the surrounding states and most of the states in the western US.
Many suppliers also allow their cars to be taken to Mexico with the purchase of insurance for that country (your car insurance usually doesn't cover you there). If you plan to do this, though, make sure to check with them before you go to pick up the car.
Toll roads
There aren't any toll roads in Nevada. If you plan to travel to California or Utah, you may encounter toll roads or express lanes. See our pages about these states for more information about these and how you can pay the tolls while driving a rental car.
Most popular types of rental car

Top driving routes
- Las Vegas - Los Angeles (270 mi / 434 km) Las Vegas may be in the desert, but Los Angeles on the Pacific Coast is less than five hours drive away. The road passes the Mojave National Preserve and the Angeles National Forest.
- Las Vegas - San Francisco (569 mi / 916 km) Another iconic Californian destination, San Francisco and the Bay Area is twice the distance than L.A., but if you’re really ambitious, the distance can still be done in one day.
- Las Vegas - Phoenix (302 mi / 486 km) Heading southeast instead of northwest, Phoenix is just a four and a half drive from Las Vegas and serves as a great base for exploring the otherworldly landscapes of Arizona, as well as a worthy destination in its own right.
