Get your bags, walk out of Murrieta, CA Airport (RBK-French Valley), and collect your rental car. Which one you climb into depends on where you’ll be going. If you’ll be mainly driving in downtown Temecula, around 6 miles from the terminal, go for something small and zippy. A compact car that’s easy to maneuver will be ideal for navigating those winding city streets. But with so many things to see, like the stunning desert landscapes of the region, you may want to make a few pit stops. A larger vehicle, like an SUV or a full-size car, will make longer road trips a joy.
