Midwestern United States
Filled with fields of grain, the Great Plains of the Midwest are known as America's Breadbasket, but a rental car from Enterprise shows you everything else the region has to offer. Travel to vibrant urban areas in Missouri and Wisconsin or crystal-clear rivers in the Ozarks. In Indiana, explore legendary haunted sites or drive in search of the perfect piece of pie. In Wisconsin, sample traditional fish fries or test-taste cheese curds and kringles — the official state pastry. On a getaway to Indiana’s Amish Country, you’ll find gifted woodworkers still craft beautiful furniture. Enterprise Rent-A-Car is ready when you are!
