Getting Around Houston
Houston is a very spread-out city, many drives to new locations may take upwards of 45 minutes, depending on traffic and you’ll need a reliable form of transportation during your stay.
Rideshare is a solid option if you like having a flexible itinerary. Rideshare apps like Uber or Lyft are your best option if you're looking to avoid parking fees and refueling.
If you and your girls split a rental car evenly, it may be affordable enough to budget for parking fees and refueling with gas during the extent of your rental. Plus, you’ll have uninhibited freedom to go wherever you want, whenever you want.
Lastly, you can also consider hiring a private driver. This way, you won’t have to worry about anything as far as transportation goes.
