KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Guatemala City

  • The highways of Guatemala city are in good condition, especially in busy parts of the city. However, some speed bumps on the roads are not marked. When driving cheap car rentals in Guatemala, avoid driving too fast to avoid hitting the bottom of the car. Some roads outside the city are dirt and gravel. These roads can be hard to drive on, especially during the rainy season. However, if you must visit during the rainy season between April and October, consider renting a 4WD.
  • Most roads in Guatemala City streets have light. However, when you drive outside the city limits, roads may not have enough lights. When driving cheap car rentals in Guatemala City, try to avoid nighttime driving, especially outside city limits. Also, careless driving is common for local drivers. It is no surprise to find a driver driving too fast, not using turn signals or stopping at red lights.
  • When driving Guatemala City car rentals, always keep right. Seatbelts are mandatory for all passengers on board. In addition, distracted driving is prohibited, especially from using a phone. This rule is only exempted when you have a hands-free system. It is also prohibited to turn right when the traffic light is red. When entering a traffic circle, always yield to oncoming traffic.
  • Guatemala City has much to offer adventurous visitors. Often though, these tourism treasures are only available to those who have a means of getting there. Quite frequently, this means renting a car. One great option for travelers with a vehicle at their disposal is a day trip to the volcano Pacaya. This volcano is a 49-kilometer (30-mile) drive from the city and is easily hiked in just a couple of hours.
  • Excited to begin your journey in Guatemala? Travelers arriving at La Aurora International Airport will find the airport’s rental car counters located both in the Arrivals Hall and outside of the main terminal in the adjacent parking lot.
  • In the busier sections of town there are many pedestrians on the streets, and jaywalking is a very common occurrence. This applies doubly to the heavily trafficked tourism spots and in the popular downtown areas. Drivers should make sure to drive carefully and keep their eyes open for any pedestrians who may be about to wantonly cross the street.
  • Guatemala City is the most populous city in the country and, as a result, it has its fair share of rush hour traffic. The morning rush hour period goes from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. most mornings during the week with slightly reduced traffic on the weekend. In the afternoon and evening, rush hour typically starts as early as 4:00 p.m. and lasts until 7:00 p.m. in many parts of the city. Additionally, CA1 and CA9, specifically their inner city portions, should be avoided during peak rush hour due to the volume of traffic they experience.

Guatemala City car rental experiences: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travelers who rented a car in Guatemala City 
Verified travelerAug 2023
Rent ahead of time, rent at a place across the bridge from the airport. Don’t rent at any place that requires a drive. Always rent SUV or pick up since they are safer on curved roads with potholes and better to climb mountains with. A place shouldn’t be charging you any extra fees. Make sure you get a rate and pay ahead of time in order to not get scammed there. Locals are amazing people, very friendly, and great at customer service and respect, but, they do love sucking the dollars out of you. However, at the end of the day if it’s only a few bucks more who cares, but if it’s a substantial difference find a new place. Always take videos of the rental car beforehand, one time they almost tried to blame me for a scuff that I had a video of prior to me driving it. Deposits will range from $300-$2000. I’ve paid anywhere between that and have received my money back, but make sure you use a good credit card with good insurance in case anything happens. Guatemala is a very dangerous place to drive in and you don’t want to have to pay out of pocket for scuffs and scratches.
Verified travelerAug 2023
Follow the cars in front of you. You frequently find yourself driving on the “wrong” side of the road or down a side farm road due to construction. Be bold when you drive.

Traffic in Guatemala City is terrible, be careful driving over there.

Hola, mi amiga y yo estuvimos en Guatemala y rentamos el auto por 3 días, el Kia Forte que recibimos estaba en muy muy malas (golpes y rayones) condiciones pero nos aseguramos de revisar muy bien cada detalle y que ellos lo anotaran en su hoja de control, al final verificaron pero todo estaba en nota. Y me devolvieron el dinero, estaba muy asustada por los comentarios de otros clientes. Pero la clave está en revisar, hacer videos y detallar todo! En mi caso me fue bien.

What I didn't like was the misleading information on the availability of manual transmission vehicles which is what I requested when I made the reservation via Kayak. But when I arrived at the G. City airport to pick up my vehicle on Jan. 20 (presumably with manual transmission), I was told by National staff that they don't have any manual transmission vehicles in their fleet and only rent vehicles with automatic transmission. At that point, it was too late (and would have been prohibitively expensive) to make a last-minute switch from National to another rental agency. In summary, the information on the Kayak web site about the availability of manual transmission vehicles in Guatemala is inaccurate & misleading.

They didn’t have a car on my reservation fare and they said that wasn’t car available and I had to postpone my pickup to the next day. I had to argument several times until they assumed the responsibility and give a upgrade, so I could have the car at the day of my reservation. Once That was done, the experience on pickup and drop off was totally fine.

Pros:

The car was ok. tires a little run down. the staff checked in ok.

Cons:

We purchased full collision damage waiver. When actual damage occurred on the car, we drove to avis the same day. told them about the issue and returned the car actually a day early. We were told that the insurance was not going to cover the damage with some week excuse (in fact that we had to immediately inform avis of the accident). There is no good cellular in Guatemala, so we could not call and instead drove to avis immediately. The accident did not involve any other car. ( in fact the roads are narrow and there was no possibility to hang out where we damaged the car (rocks at the side of the road). The car's functionality was not impaired at all. We were told to come back the next day (where we actually took off to return to the US), after the local manager had spoken to his supervisor. We returned the next morning, ready to take the flight. At that point the manager called his supervisor and customer service representative and then told us that the CDW would not cover because we had not immediately called (which was impossible). Needless to say, we will fight line of argumentation. It is just very frustrating to have purchased this kind of "peace of mind" insurance only to find out that the contract seems to be illusory. Will definitely not rent from avis again and very upset about their gamble.

Pickup of vehicle was supposed to be at the airport but was not - had to squeeze into their pickup truck to get over to where the car was, which was not ready. Gave us car on empty, we had to get fuel immediately. Then we had small scratch on side of car and got charged $813 a few weeks later with no communication regarding it, so I will be disputing this. Terrible, would never recommend these guys.

There was no agent at the airport counter although I had indicated an arrival time upon reservation. We found someone from another rental company to kindly make a phone call for us to the contact phone number left on a piece of papier at the counter. Someone came to pick us up and drive us to another location which made me uncomfortable since I was with my young niece and the area was unlighted and in a back street, not a main road. The car was banged up and scratch and after less than 10 km, it started acting up (kept slowing down on it's own and starting back up) with lights coming on in the dashboard. We eventually made it to Antigua from Guatemala city and I called Ace. The eventually came to deliver a new car the next evening. It was a compact car (I had rented an intermediate). The Ace agent told me I should make a claim with Kayak.

I had prepaid the fee for the car rental one month before I came to pick it up and had reserved for a Toyota Camry or equivalent. When I arrived to pick it up at the reserved time I had to wait 1/2 hr and the car given to me is a much smaller Toyota Agra. The car was beat up with a rear bumper falling off and floor mats worn to the chassis. When I confronted them on this they admitted it and promised to deliver to my hotel a Camry ( or comparable car) but never did so. When I returned the car and requested a partial refund they said the manager wasn't available. I feel Kayak shouldn't list this very shady car rental company that falsely advertises.

If you are renting a car in Guatemala City, do not waste your time with this company.

The Thrifty agent was not at the pick-up location at the scheduled time. The vehicle (a Mitsubishi sedan) itself performed slowly, and was very sluggish on roads with hills. The vehicle had over 141,000 miles on it, which is probably why it performed poorly. The tires were almost bald. The plastic chip cover on the key ring broke apart and some electronic chips fell out, making it impossible to start the car. This happened the day we had to be at the airport for an outbound flight. We had rented from Thrifty on another occasion, and that vehicle broke down and had to be replaced. It also had one broken headlight bulb that had to be replaced. Adios Thrifty.

If possible, I would give this location zero stars. For Christmas, my father and I went to Guatemala. We rented an SUV. First of all, the directions say that there is a telephone in the airport to call for a shuttle. This was not true. We ended up having to walk there. We even had some airport attendants who were there call from their cellphones since we do not speak Spanish. No shuttle was sent. Next, they charged me $24 a day for supplemental car insurance. I understand the need for supplemental car insurance in Guatemala after experiencing the road conditions. I had no problem with that. Which is why I bought it through Kayak when I reserved the car through Alliance. I showed this to the rental agent and he said it was not accepted in Guatemala. That is untrue. The fee he charged me for insurance was almost equivalent to the cost of the entire rental. How is that possible? He now doubled my cost PLUS I was stuck paying for the insurance I bought through Kayak. I did a quick search for an SUV with any other company and realized that due to the holiday rush, none were available. I was forced to either navigate myself through public transportation in a dangerous country which I did not research prior to arriving or paying
