KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Lewiston
- Renting Lewiston car rentals is a smart choice for adventurous travelers who want to explore all the hidden gems this beautiful city has to offer. With a rental car, you can enjoy the convenience of traveling at your own pace and on your own schedule, without the hassle of waiting for public transport or hailing a cab. One of the major advantages of renting a car in Lewiston is that you get the flexibility to explore the city's panoramic views, cultural landmarks, and vibrant nightlife without any limitations. Renting a car also means that you can easily access the surrounding areas, such as the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area, Winchester State Park, and nearby towns like Clarkston, Pomeroy, and Asotin.
- Spokane International Airport (GEG) has several rental car companies available, including Alamo, Avis, Enterprise, Hertz, and Thrifty. The rental car counters are located on the first floor of the parking garage, directly across from the baggage claim area, making them easily accessible for travelers. You can follow the signs that say "Rental Cars" to get to the rental car counters. There is no need for an airport shuttle to get to the rental car offices from the terminal building. To ensure you get the Lewiston car rentals you want, it's recommended that you reserve your vehicle in advance.
- It is important to be mindful of wildlife on the roads when driving cheap car rentals in Lewiston, particularly at dawn and dusk when animals are most active. Additionally, drivers should be cautious when driving on steep and winding roads, especially during inclement weather conditions. Drivers should use caution when turning left, as the state has special provisions for left turns, called yield-on-green intersection rules. This means vehicles making a left turn must yield to oncoming traffic only when the traffic signal is green.
- Driving cheap car rentals in Lewiston is relatively straightforward, but there may be some challenges during certain times of the day. Local rush hour traffic occurs typically from 7-9 am and 4-6 pm, particularly during weekdays. During these peak traffic hours, some of the main roads in town, such as Main Street and 21st Street, can experience congestion and slowdowns. Additionally, roads can become muddy during the rainy season, making them slippery, and it is important to take extra care when driving in these conditions.

Cons:
My flight arrived ON TIME, as schedule, but the avis branch at this airport closed two hours before. I had a reservation that included my flight information. When I contacted AVIS's toll-free number, they simply stated that the branch was closed and there was nothing they could do. I was unable to rent from AVIS, ended up with a large taxi fare to the hotel and a subsequent rental at another company.8.0 Very good

I had to make a trip back to the car to get mileage and gas reading. The counter person was unable to leave the desk to do it herself. No big deal, I just didn't realize that they'd trust me to fill out the return form.7.6 Good

Pros:
Pick up/drop off went very wellCons:
Car wasn't cleaned - I didn't care about the outside of the car, the roads were a mess because of the snow, so that didn't matter. But, the inside had clearly not been touched (crumbs, and some wrappers). Not horrible or gross, but obviously needed someone to have looked inside!Hertz

After we dropped off our car, we discovered that our flight had been cancelled and we would have to stay another night in Pullman. When we tried to rent another car, we were dismayed to discover that there aren't any available But the Hertz agent went way out of her way to locate a car for us.

The "off site" issue was not clearly delineated on line. They called a day before to confirm, and left a message. I called back several times, no answer I arrived at Lewiston airport and found they were off site, so called again. No answer. I finally booked with Hertz for an extra $100. Would have booked with them originally at a lower price if I had known.Car rental locations in or near Lewiston
