Driving in Wyoming

Just a heads up - driving here is a bit different than the UK. You'll be driving on the right side of the road and overtaking on the left. Turning right on red is typically allowed unless signed otherwise, and don't forget to tip at full-service petrol stations!

You'll find plenty of petrol stations near the airport as you start your journey. Some key spots include Sinclair, Diamond Shamrock, and Loaf 'N Jug, all within just a few kilometers.

Car Hire at Cheyenne Regional Airport

Once you've landed and collected your luggage, your car hire selection is conveniently located within the airport itself. You'll find Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, and National all ready to provide the perfect ride for your travels.

A compact or economy car class might be a wise choice. However, if you plan on exploring the rugged landscapes, you might want to consider an SUV.

Accessibility and Connections

Cheyenne Regional boasts excellent connections. Two major interstates, I-25 and I-80, connect to it, opening up easy access to neighboring states and key attractions. For example, Denver is just an hour and a half's drive away whereas Yellowstone National Park is around a 6-hour drive.

Climate and Currency

The climate in Wyoming is drastically different from the UK. Prepare for a dry and often windy environment. In the summer, temperatures can rise up to 30°C, with winter generally hovering around -5°C.

The official currency is the US Dollar ($), with ATMs available at the airport for withdrawal.

Further Afield

If you're looking to explore a bit farther out, other interesting cities like Fort Collins and Boulder are just a relaxing drive away through some spectacular landscapes!
