A minivan or a standard SUV would be ideal if you are traveling in a group as they can fit up to five people and 3-5 bags. If you are making the journey alone, consider hiring an economy car that can carry up to two people and two bags. Economy cars are also perfect for driving around the downtown area where parking spaces might be few or small.
