Travertine would be at or near the top of my list…

There are light colored granite colors much more available in the last few years. I have not seen travertine used in a driveway situation, so I don’t know how well it will hold up.

Natural stone is the best for not retaining heat, travertine, or light colored limestone are good options…though for driveways those get expensive.

Take a look at tumbled marble. It sounds expensive but it is in line with the cost of travertine. I have used around pool decks but never for driveway applications. Depending on location/climate, soil conditions, and vehicular load I would suspect you would need a hefty concrete base. http://www.Marmiro.com is my local source.
