Is it a good idea to rent a car in Arizona?

Renting a car provides flexibility to visit destinations that may not be easily accessible by public transportation. You can set your own schedule, explore remote areas, and discover hidden gems. Arizona boasts numerous cultural and historic attractions, such as Native American heritage sites and historic towns. A car makes it easier to visit these places and immerse yourself in the state's rich history. Arizona cities like Phoenix, Tucson, and Flagstaff have public transportation, but a rental car can be more convenient, especially if you have multiple destinations to visit or want to avoid the limitations of fixed bus or train schedules.

What conditions should I expect when I am driving a rental car in Arizona?

Arizona is known for its scorching heat, especially in the desert regions. Ensure that your rental car's air conditioning is functioning properly, and carry plenty of water and sun protection. Much of Arizona is characterized by desert landscapes, including cacti, arid terrain, and unique flora and fauna. Arizona features diverse elevations, from low desert valleys to high mountain ranges. Be prepared for elevation changes that may impact your vehicle's performance, especially if you drive into the mountains.

If I want to rent a car in Arizona, how old will I need to be?

Typically, you must be at least 21 years old to rent a car in Arizona. Nevertheless, some rental car companies may mandate a minimum age of 25 to avoid incurring extra costs or fees. It is crucial to thoroughly review the terms and conditions and ask about any potential supplementary charges if you fall below the age of 25. Please be aware that if you are under 21, it may be more difficult to secure a rental car, as many companies impose age restrictions prohibiting renters under 21. This can also include a limit on the type of vehicle you may rent.

Tips for renting a car in Arizona

It is typically possible to drive a rental car from Arizona to Mexico. Check with the rental car company from which you plan to rent the vehicle. Some companies have specific policies, fees, or restrictions related to taking their vehicles into Mexico. Mexico requires all vehicles to have liability insurance from a Mexican insurance company. Be sure to purchase this insurance at the border or in advance to comply with Mexican law. Ensure you have all the necessary travel documents for crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, including a valid passport, any required visas, and driver's licenses for all drivers of the rental car.
In cities and metropolitan areas like Phoenix, Tucson, Flagstaff, and Yuma, you'll find numerous gas stations. They are typically located near major roads, shopping centers, residential neighborhoods, and business districts. Arizona's major highways, including Interstate 10 (I-10), Interstate 17 (I-17), and Interstate 40 (I-40), have multiple gas stations along their routes. This is especially helpful for travelers on long-distance journeys. While urban and suburban regions have a high density of gas stations, rural areas may have fewer options. When traveling through less populated or remote areas of the state, it's advisable to keep an eye on your fuel level and refuel when the opportunity arises.
Difficult driving times in Arizona can occur due to various factors, including traffic congestion, weather conditions, and special events. In the Phoenix Metropolitan Area, weekday rush hours from 6:30 to 9:00 am and 3:30 to 6:30 pm often lead to heavy traffic. Traffic congestion can also arise around the University of Arizona during major events, such as football games and graduation ceremonies. Traveling around major holidays, like Thanksgiving and Christmas, can result in increased traffic on highways, particularly on Interstate 10 and Interstate 17. The winter months see an influx of visitors from colder states, leading to heavier traffic in popular retirement communities. Monsoon season, which runs from July to September, can bring heavy rain and flash flooding, requiring cautious driving.

Great staff, no wait time, upgraded from a sedan to an SUV for no extra price. There is a huge difference in price from picking a car up at the airports or picking it up at eg. 555 Bell road. (3 times more money). We were fortunate enough to get a car for 1/3 the price. Kayak and Enterprise did a good job.

It was good except for the fact that I had no idea that managers special also could mean an electric car. When I called a rep before pick up she said it could be a small, mid or full size vehicle. Driving across Arizona in an electric car I had no knowledge of driving was not comfortable for me. So I had to pay $15 plus fees & taxes to get a gas powered car. That part was very disappointing to me. I will be sharing that with friends so they’re aware. Otherwise, the car was clean and comfy and the staff were courteous.

Wonderful|Jan 2023

The service was smooth and easy, at both pick-up and drop-off. They upgraded me to a standard since they lacked a mid-sized, but the gas cost was still manageable. The only issue was the lack of a mapping software, meaning we had to travel with our own Garmin system. Using my phone would incur roaming charges.

It was awful. I had told the representative a few times that I had lost my card during my accident and that I needed a replacement car and he assured me that I could use my digital card in order to rent a car only to find out that there was no way for me to do so! So I spent more than two hours on the phone and made a paid reservation only to find out it wasn’t doable. I don’t know who was to blame but it was an awful experience.

I went to pick up my prepaid reservation and was told they didn't have a vehicle for me. I was also informed they would not do a refund. I asked about my reservation/contract that was paid for, the manager stated that I could call Hertz corporate but he and I did not have a contract and it was not his problem. I tried to explain that when I made a reservation and paid for it that is a contract. He wanted nothing to do with me. I went to another rental company for a vehicle and am now fighting to get a refund. I will not use Kayak again if this is the company standards the represent.

We booked a car through your website from Sixt but it was booked with Priceline. We will never book with them again and that said if you continue to use this company we will never book through Kayak again. Your website directed us to Priceline who quoted us for car hire with Sixt and an insurance package at $88. The total package of car hire and insurance was appealing to us so we clicked book but got conformation back to say we had successfully booked car hire but that the insurance package at $88 was not available. This wasn't acceptable to us as we were booking a package that included insurance. We contacted Sixt and Priceline but were told if we cancelled there would be a $100 cancellation fee. Long story short we were unable to cancel so had to go ahead with the booking. When we arrived at the Sixt rental desk at Phoenix airport we were charged $280 for insurance which is substantially more than Priceline had quoted. This is an absolute scam by Priceline and on further research of this company the same thing has happened to lots of other people. We won't be back as customers unfortunately.

Navigating cancellation was very difficult as Kayak directed me to Sixt and Sixt told me I had to do it through Kayak. Then Sixt’s phone service told me to send an email and then the auto response to the email told me I had to call. Eventually I got a human to engage and they were unreasonably inflexible given the circumstances. Truly awful experience. I’m definitely blaming Sixt but I’ll also be cautious about booking through Kayak in the future too.

Line up at the airport was not good at all. Also once we finally got served, as we waited for our vehicle ( again in a long line ) it became apparent that when you gave a sneaky tip that you got serviced much faster. Poor service at pick up. But the car and value for Money was good.

Poor|Feb 2023

Arrived at PHX airport to pick up a rental, for which I had a reservation. Huge lines were waiting for me and I didn’t even get half way through the line in 30 min of waiting. Some of the employees started making announcements that they weren’t taking walk-ins anymore and only those with reservations would be provided a vehicle. No one moved from the line. About 10 min. later, a frustrated customer left the desk and started telling the others waiting in line that she had been waiting for a rental car since yesterday evening and was told again today that there weren’t enough rental cars currently available and that it may be 10:00 PM before they have time to clean the vehicles returned today. Horrible inventory management, only 4 employees working the counter during the peak time of the day, poor customer service. I was only renting a car for five hours of the day, so I decided to skip the rental and take an Uber. Didn’t get my money back even though I wasn’t provided with a service/product. Definitely will not use Thrifty again.
