Best Museums And Cultural Attractions In Denver, Colorado
Denver is a vibrant city, and there are so many great things to do there other than winter activities. We often think of going to Colorado in the Winter when the ski resorts are in the full swing, but the summers in Colorado are amazing as well. You can hike, bike, camp, and if you’re staying near the city center, you can check out these great museums and attractions.
1. Denver Art Museum
The Denver Art Museum opened its brand new wing, the Hamilton Building, in October 2006. The spare, modern space contrasts with the medieval fortress of the old museum, now referred to as the North Building. The two buildings are connected by a bridge. The North Building contains the museum’s collection of pre-Impressionist art, while the Hamilton Building has Impressionist art through modern art. World-renowned architect, Daniel Libeskind, designed the Hamilton Building. The museum is FREE to Colorado residents on the first Saturday of every month. Otherwise, it is $10 for adults and $8 for seniors and children.
2. Denver Botanic Gardens
Denver’s dry climate is a challenge for many gardeners around the state, but they gain a lot of ideas and inspiration from the Botanical Gardens. The Denver Botanic Gardens has 32,000 types of planets, and it also has xeriscaped gardens that require hardly any water. The cost for the Botanic Gardens is $11.50 adults, $8.50 seniors, and $8.00 for children in the Winter. In the Summer, the price goes up a $1.00 for each type of ticket. Don’t miss their great concert series that they have every year, it usually sells out quickly!
Note: The Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield is FREE on the first Friday of every month!
3. Denver Museum of Nature and Science
Formerly known as the Natural History Museum, the Denver Museum of Nature & Science offers educational fun for all ages. The Museum was founded in 1900 by Denver naturalist Edwin Carter. Today, the collection houses more than one million objects from around the world. You’ll find the popular Expedition Health exhibit which is an interactive way to measure your physical fitness. And don’t miss the Egyptian Mummies on the 3rd Floor! The admission is $11 for adults and $6 for children. You can also view IMAX moves there for a separate price.
4. The Denver Zoo
Kids always love the zoo, and Denver has a great one! This zoo covers more than 80 acres and has over 4,000 animals. It got a renovation in 2004 with the opening of its Predator Ridge exhibit that showcases some of Africa’s favorite animals. The zoo is $12 for adults, $9 for seniors, and $7 for children in the summer.
If you’re renting a discount rental car from E-Z Rent-A-Car, you’ll have the flexibility to visit any of these great museums and attractions in Denver.

E-Z Rent-A-Car Has Officially Moved To In-Terminal at Denver International Airport
In the past, if you flew into Denver International Airport to pick up your discount rental car from E-Z, you had to go straight to a shuttle bus and trek about 5 miles to get to our rental car location. We knew this wasn’t the most convenient set up for our great customers, so we have worked long and hard to get an in-terminal location at the Denver airport.
That time has finally arrived, and we have a huge rental counter area in-terminal at Denver International Airport. Instead of getting on a shuttle bus to travel 5 miles away from the airport to get to your cheap rental car, we are now less than a mile away for your convenience.
Some Great Features About Our New Location
- More counter space with six computers to stream line the check-in process
- Our fleet is now located less than a mile from the main airport terminals.
- We have enough space to continually grow our fleet and offer more vehicles during increased demand for rental cars
- We now have on-site car washing and maintenance facilities
- An overall more enjoyable experience for you, our loyal customers.
So the next time you are traveling to Denver, remember E-Z Rent-A-Car, because we offer exceptional customer service and rental cars at a discounted price.

The Best Ski Resorts Near Denver, Colorado
Ski season is here, and it’s no surprise that Colorado has the best skiing in North America. World class resorts and great mountains make Colorado the place to be for skiing. Our discount rental car location at the Denver International Airport is a perfect way to get to your ski resort in Colorado. Are you still deciding on what resort to go to? Here is a short list of the best ski resorts closest to the Denver Airport.
1. Breckenridge Ski Resort
website: www.breckenridge.com
Whether you’re looking forward to a day off the slopes or searching for a little alternative adventure, Breckenridge has as much to offer off the mountain as it does on any of its 155 trails. As the largest historic district in Colorado, the town of Breckenridge features a wide variety of shops, activities, culture and attractions to entertain. Learn more about Breckenridge’s History or check out our list of 101 things to do in Breckenridge.
I’ve personally had friends that have stayed at Breckenridge and they loved it. This resort is only 104 miles away from the airport, so it’ll only take you about 2 hours to get there.
2. Winter Park Ski Resort
website: http://www.skiwinterpark.com/index.htm
The mountain opened for the 1939–1940 season as Winter Park Ski Area and was owned and operated by the city and county of Denver until 2002, when Denver entered into a partnership with Intrawest ULC, a Canadian corporation headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, which has operated the resort since then. For nearly 70 years a popular way for Denver residents — many of whom have learned to ski or snowboard at Winter Park over the years — to get there was via the Ski Train, which arrived at the resort’s base area though the Moffatt Tunnel. (The Ski Train was terminated by the railroad in spring 2009). It is home to one of the world’s largest and oldest disabled skiing programs, the National Sports Center for the Disabled. courtesy of Wikipedia.
This resort is one of the largest in Colorado, and it’s also the closest to Denver International Airport. It’s only about 45 minutes away!
3. The Sol Vista Basin
website: http://www.granbyranch.com/ski/solvistabasin.asp
The Sol Vista Basin is a new ski mountain, which is part of the Granby Ranch Resort. Not only does the property have skiing, but when weather permits, you can go fishing, golfing, and bike riding. This resort is only about 1.5 hours away from Denver International Airport, so getting there in your cheap rental car won’t be tough at all!

Denver and Atlanta Are Now In-Terminal Locations
Tired of getting off the plane, grabbing your luggage, hopping on the shuttle bus, and finally reaching your rental car? You should be! By the time you reach your car, you’ve already wasted an hour or so, and that’s not a good experience. We want to make your experience as smooth and easy as possible, so that is why we are moving our locations in-terminal at the Atlanta and Denver international airports.
Atlanta-Hartsfield International Airport
Starting December 8th, we will be moving to Atlanta’s brand-new consolidated facility. You’ll be able to walk up to our counters, check-in for your reservation, and get your car keys without leaving the airport. Our cars will also be located on airport property in parking garages, so you can walk to your car! This will rapidly decrease the amount of time it takes for you to get to your destination. This new move will work great for time sensitive travelers such as business travelers going to a meeting or conference in downtown Atlanta.
Denver International Airport
Beginning December 1st, we will now have a counter location in-terminal at the Denver International Airport. Like all other rental car companies, our office will be on airport property, but our cars will be located off airport property, and a friendly E-Z shuttle driver will take you to your car. The ability to get you checked in and sign the paperwork in terminal will drastically reduce your wait time to get you to your car. This will allow Denver travelers to pick up their car quickly and efficiently.
If you have any other questions about this change, please do not hesitate to ask us by contacting us or posting a question on our Facebook fan page.

Take A Vacation To Denver, Colorado

Denver is one of the fastest growing tourism hot spots in the United States. With great ski slopes, sunny weather, a thriving economy, and so many other activities to keep you busy, there’s no wonder why Denver, Colorado is the place to be. From anywhere in the city, you’ll have a panoramic view of the snow-capped Rocky Mountains. The summer is the perfect time to visit, because the temperature is in the 70s, and there is plenty of sun to accommodate doing activities outdoors.
Once you pick up your discount car rental in Denver, head on over to Denver’s world class art, natural science, and history museums. Catch a baseball game at Coors Field or check out the beautiful Denver botanical gardens. Do you want to travel green? Denver has many green hotels with high green score ratings.
The nightlife scene is just as active as the natural wonders that make this city so unique. The local bars and clubs are rich in history and some can be recognized by a younger audience who watched MTV’s Real World Denver. The top partying spots include The Shelter, Bull and Bush Pub and Brewery, Pint’s Pub, The Church, Rise Night Club and Gabors.
If a skiing or snowboarding trip this winter is what you seek, Denver delivers in a big way. Keystone, Copper Head, Breckenridge, Winter Park, Vail, Loveland and Arapahoe Basin are all within reasonable driving distance. All of these resorts are considered among the best in the country, but we suggest that you research which slopes will be best for your skill level.
Renting a car is recommended in Denver, because going just outside the city to experience their outdoor activities is the only way to truly get the most out of your stay in Colorado. You can look for coupons for your Denver car rental right on our website. We have a location at the Denver International Airport to serve your car rental needs.

How To Save Money On Your Car Rental
photo credit: mangpages
For most of our customers, price is a huge factor when determining what company to use when renting a car. The economy isn’t great right now, which leads to even more price-sensitive consumers. Here at E-Z Rent-A-Car, we understand that you are looking for the best price, so here are a few ways that you can ensure getting the best car rental rate from us or any other car rental company you choose.
Book In Advance
In economics, supply and demand drive the price of any good or service that we consume. This is no different in the car rental industry. The more advance notice that you book a car rental, the better your chances are of getting a great deal. As the time gets closer to your expected date of rental, the supply for a car rental goes down and the demand goes up. This is why airlines and rental car companies charge higher rates when booking a car or flight with less time in advance.
If you know that you’ll be renting a car over a busy holiday, make sure you book further in advance to lock in the best rates possible.
Take advantage of our online coupons.
If you are a veteran, senior citizen, teacher, student, airline employee, or policeman, we have a discount code waiting for you! These coupons are offered frequently on our website, so make sure you use them when you book a reservation with E-Z Rent-A-Car.
Here is the page for E-Z Rent-A-Car Discounts and Promotions
Join Our E-Z Money Rewards Program
When you join E-Z Money you’ll receive instant discounts and have access to exclusive member only coupons. Every member automatically receives 10% of their future car rentals. Plus you’ll start earning points that can be redeemed for credits on future rentals with no black out periods.*
Once you sign up, we’ll also give you a complimentary, personalized page where you can log in and easily find your future reservations, past rentals, access receipts, and keep track of all your E-Z Money points.
Click here to learn more about our three E-Z Money programs and which one suits you best.
The most important tip is to be an informed and educated consumer. Don’t just settle for the first car rental rate that you find. Search for different rates, read customer reviews, and search for the company with the best customer service and fleet vehicles. We are confident that E-Z Rent-A-Car will fulfill all of your car rental needs.
