There are many reasons to go carfree, whether on vacation or at home. Among the many comments we've heard:

"I hate waiting in line at the car rental agency at the airport. Plus by time I pay all the fees in addition to the rental, I feel ripped off."

"We like to think of our vacation as the planet's vacation from us!"

"There really is a lot of mass transit in the US, sometimes in places you don't expect it."

"When I take the train or bus in the US, it makes me feel like I am in an international city."

"Who wants to deal with parking these days?"

When you're in a car, you're always alone, and the view is always the same. But when you're walking or taking transit, you're part of the city you're visiting, seeing life unobstructed and meeting new people all the time. And that's what a vacation is for!
