Sacramento, California: A Scenic Tour Through the State Capitol
Sacramento is a family-friendly travel destination known for its up-and-coming dining scene, historic areas and beautiful riverside views. It's also easy to navigate, which makes a car rental a simple, efficient way for you to get around the city traffic.
The Historic Tour of Sacramento
As state capitol of California, Sacramento has plenty of attractions to engage you if you're a history buff. You can check out Capitol Park, which is home to the neoclassical Capitol building and museum. The surrounding park is filled with memorials and monuments like the California Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the Civil War Memorial Grove.
Capitol Park is located in downtown Sacramento, and after you are done touring the scenic outdoor memorials, you should drive to nearby Sutter's Fort, which is just a few minutes away by car rental. A Swiss immigrant built this fortress in the 1840s, and it's been restored and turned into a Sacramento landmark.
Spend Time With the Kids
Sacramento has plenty of kid-friendly attractions including the Sacramento Zoo. Located just south of downtown Sacramento, this zoo is home to more than 100 animal species, including giraffes and tigers.
Just across the street from the Sacramento Zoo is Fairytale Town, a must-see attraction for little kids. This amusement park lets kids interact with classic fairytale stories via rides and oversized playgrounds.
Old Sacramento
Drive for about 10 minutes from Capitol Park to see Old Sacramento, a standing tribute to California's history. It's home to a number of museums, like the California State Railroad Museum. It also has boardwalks, which run alongside the Sacramento River. When visitors travel to this area, many simply take in the old-fashioned ambience; they walk along the river, munch on boardwalk snacks and check out the century-old architecture.

The renter must present a personal credit card, valid in the country of pick-up with enough funds to put a hold for a security deposit. Third-party credit cards will not be accepted.

Rental car protections usually have the abbreviations CDW and LDW and protect the vehicle from robbery and damage in the event of collisions or accidents.
The protections against third parties have several abbreviations, such as ALI, SLI and others. In general, they protect the vehicle from third parties involved in collisions with your rental car.
To pick up the car you must leave a security deposit, also called a pre-authorization. The amount is "blocked" on the renter's credit card and "unlocked" after the return of the car on the same conditions.
It is possible to add optional items to your reservation, such as GPS, child car seat or booster seat. Take advantage of those items so you don’t have to worry about it later!
If someone else is sharing the wheel with you, they need to be added to the car rental agreement as an additional driver and meet the same documentation and minimum age requirements as the main driver or renter.
Check if your reservation has free mileage or not. Free mileage means you can ride as much as you like with the rental car and you will not pay extra depending on the ride.
