Car rental is a MUST. Reno is not a place to stay unless you want to just gamble in the casinos. Our enjoyment was obtained by traveling outside the city limits. We took a short trip through the Dohner Pass and drove to Tahoo (less than an hour away) The views were absolutely breathtaking. We made a short stop in Truckie CA along the way. Great rest stop.

 Above the Sierras by SteveOSF Flying to Reno is relatively convenient. The flight from San Francisco to Reno lasts only about a half hour. However, the door-to-door journey will take a couple of hours due to transportation to and from the airports as well as the airport security rigmarole. But flying eliminates the need for driving over the mountains or across the desert. Reno’s International Airport is served by several airlines.

 Sierra Spirit Route Map by thecatsmeow The Sierra Spirirt is a free bus that will take you around the center of Reno and makes a complete loop every 30 minutes. It is a great way to get around.It goes as far as the University to the north and the Museum of Art to the south. Leave a Comment

 A limo stops at a lookout over North Lake Tahoe by TheTravelSlut One excellent way to see the Reno & Lake Tahoe area is to take advantage of the many limousines available through the many companies in Reno or Lake Tahoe. Most cars are fully equipped and have amenities including a full liquor bar. One of the biggest advantages is that someone else drives while you take in the scenery without fear of driving off the road and you can request stops along your selected routes--all the while sipping your favorite libations without the risk of driving yourself. Rates run about $75.00 U.S. per hour and drivers are usually tipped 15-20%.

 Informational sign by thecatsmeow Scattered around the downtown area are now signs that tell you where things are located that may be of interest to a tourist. These signs list Museums and such and their distance from that point. On the back of the signs is a city street map pinpointing where you are. I thought that theae were very handy to come across and I halfway know my way around town! Leave a Comment Theme: Other

In Chinatown and other locations, I have heard that you can hop on a bus in San Francisco on Friday after work to head to Reno and come back on Sunday in time for work on Sunday. Certainly do encourage weekend gambling addiction here - work hard in San Francisco for a chance of jack pot in Reno over the weekend. We regularly drive from San Francisco to Reno the fast moving interstate I-80. Driving back on Sunday night can be challenging if you are tired as the traffic is heavy and it is fast downhill. So get plenty of rest if you are driving, if not take the bus instead of drive. Another fun way is to use Highway 50 and stopover in Lake Tahoe. The view during the winter is incredible with tall pines and heavy white snow all around the blue lake and along the highway. Theme: Other

 Highway 80 in the Sierra Nevada Mountains by SteveOSF Many options are available for getting to Reno. Most people drive. A high percentage of those traverse Highway 80 from California. A friend once described Highway 80 as the only mountain highway that isn't a mountain highway. This is true to a point, as it is a well-maintained four-lane highway that crosses Donner Pass in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. It is a major route. However, in the winter driving conditions can deteriorate quickly when chains are required. It might take an additional several house to cross the pass in a snowstorm. Heavy snow and even avalanches can close the highway altogether. It is best to check the road conditions before crossing the pass. From San Francisco one should allocate about four and a half hours for the trip, and from Sacramento one should allocate about 2 and a half hours for the trip. This schedule would include one short stop for food or gas. Auburn, Forest Hills, and Colfax present the best bets for services before crossing the mountains. Theme: Car/Motor Home

I travel from England via Schipol Airport to San Francisco, and get an internal flight from there. I have found that KLM have the best fares, try to book about 8 or 9 months in advance to get the best 'V Class' fares (a V Class return last May cost just 230 pounds sterling!) needless to say I just missed that fare, and got a Q Class for 330! still a bargain when you think of the diatance! Theres a shuttle service from SFO to Reno, so you could really just turn up and take a chance on the next flight.. One really cool thing...on the Northwest Airlines shuttle, you can listen in to the pilot and control towers through headphones, all through the flight. Leave a Comment Theme: Other
