Question 1

What are the major attractions in Grand Forks?

Accepted Answer

If your trip to Grand Forks is all sorted out but your itinerary is looking a little empty, let us give you a few hints and tips.

University of North Dakota deserves more than just a quick drive-by tour. Step out of your car and take your time checking out this iconic sight during your visit to Grand Forks.

If anybody asks why you're coming here, just show them a few images of Ralph Engelstad Arena and Alerus Center. These fabulous attractions will make sure you have an unforgettable trip.

Plan a stop at Columbia Mall. It's one attraction you'll usually find on most visitors' to-do lists. River Cities Speedway and Splasher's of the South Seas are also a stone's throw away and worth a pit stop.

Question 3

What kind of rental car should I get for Grand Forks?

Accepted Answer

Fill up the tank and take to the road in Grand Forks. You'll find excitement and adventure around every corner here, from noteworthy sights like University of North Dakota to the more remote prairies. The car you select will add to the experience. If you're heading off with the whole family, book a standard or an intermediate rental vehicle. They'll give you more legroom and space. Hope to avoid city driving but would love to head out into the surrounding natural areas? Tear down the open road in an RV. This option is perfect for groups craving outdoor adventure — and you won't have to spend money on hotels either!

Question 4

Should I get a luxury rental car in Grand Forks?

Accepted Answer

You'll be glad to hear that there's a great range of luxurious rental vehicles on offer in Grand Forks. What you end up opting for is largely dependent on how much you're willing to spend as well as what you plan to do. Specialty vehicles are all about comfort and class. If you want to indulge yourself, why not go for a high-end SUV, or perhaps a flashy mid-size sedan? Otherwise, if you just need a car to zip around town in as cheaply as possible, you're better off going with a versatile compact vehicle (or something else that's unlikely to break the bank).
