Texas is the second-largest state in the USA, and the best way to explore this expansive land is by hire car.

On your road trip through Texas you'll enjoy a varied landscape, from windswept beaches, prairie farms and huge cities, to pine forests, sparse deserts and rolling hills.

Having car hire in Texas will allow you to take to the highways, but beware of the state’s many toll roads and carry plenty of spare change in your hire car.

Because of the size of the state, regions are prone to their own climate – make sure you have appropriate clothing depending on the time of your visit.

Texas is served by several international airports and car rental is available at the airport, but to secure the best deal, visit TravelSupermarket prior to your visit.

Historic, lively, beautiful Texas is so much more than cowboys, big hair, big cars and big portions. Find your own piece of unique Texas...

You'll certainly pick up on the state's cowboy culture with cattle farms and traditional saloon bars scattered across the Wild West, though Texas is much more of a complex beast than the 1980s soap opera Dallas might have you believe. There are national parks, beaches, cultural cities, historic sites, family parks, quirky attractions and so much more.

Over in the west of the state you should check out Big Bend National Park, south-east of El Paso. It is a favourite place for hikers, campers and rock-climbing enthusiasts.

Having invested in car rental in Texas, you might want to pay a visit to the state’s biggest city, Houston, where you can enjoy a tour round the world famous Johnson Space Center, while kids will love the thrilling rides at AstroWorld.

The city of San Antonio is probably the most recognised tourist town in Texas. With plenty to see and do, San Antonio offers a unique blend of historic landmarks, such as the Alamo, world-class dining and hotels along the River Walk, and modern attractions such as Fiesta Texas and SeaWorld Texas.

While the big hair might be a cliché (the big portions most certainly are not), you’ll be glad of a big car to explore this enormous state. It would take around 12 hours to drive from north to south and around the same time to go east to west. Plan your holiday carefully to avoid unnecessarily long car journeys – there are many great destinations within easy reach of one another. Wherever you go, enjoy your wild ride through this state when you book car hire with TravelSupermarket.
