That depends on where you plan to wander. Downtown Albany, about 4 miles from Albany, GA Airport (ABY-Southwest Georgia Regional), can be challenging to drive around. Make things easy for yourself by choosing something compact, fuel-efficient, and simple to handle. Take into consideration that Albany is a good base to explore many of the sandy shores around Georgia. If your getaway is more about cruising down long stretches of road, you may want a ride with a little more trunk space and room to move about. What about a full-size car or a standard SUV?
