KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Silao

  • Compared to public buses and taxis, car rentals in Silao offer greater flexibility, allowing visitors to explore the city and its surroundings conveniently. With a rental car, you can easily reach attractions like the stunning Guanajuato Mummy Museum, which showcases well-preserved mummies, and the historic Alhóndiga de Granaditas, a former grain storage now transformed into a museum and cultural center. Additionally, Silao car rentals provide access to nearby wonders like the picturesque town of San Miguel de Allende and the enchanting archaeological site of Cañada de la Virgen, enriching your travel experience.
  • Some of Silao's best pickup locations for car rentals are Bajío International Airport (BJX) and Rochester Santiago de Querétaro Airport (QRO). Upon arrival at BJX, head to the Ground Transportation Area on the first floor of Terminal A, where reputable car rental companies like Avis, Budget, and Enterprise have counters. Similarly, at QRO, proceed to the ground transportation area on the lower level of Terminal B. The car rental agencies stationed here avail a wide range of vehicles to suit the different needs of customers. These strategic locations ensure swift access to rental services, enabling you to embark on your journey quickly and conveniently.
  • It would be best to remember a few things when considering using car rentals in Silao. For instance, the driving style is generally moderate, but traffic can be heavy. Drivers usually adhere to traffic laws, but defensive driving is advisable due to occasional aggressive driving. Mexico's traffic laws are enforced, including seatbelt usage and speed limits. Child car seat laws are stringent, requiring children under 12 to use appropriate seats. Infractions may result in fines. It's crucial to respect local driving customs, prioritize safety, have the necessary documents and insurance, and be aware of one-way streets and parking regulations to ensure a smooth and compliant driving experience.
  • Driving car rentals in Silao may pose challenges during rush hours, typically around 8 am to 10 am and 5 pm to 7 pm. Congestion can affect major roads like Carretera Federal 45 and Boulevard Torres Landa. Limited parking spaces in downtown areas might also be an issue. While drivers generally adhere to traffic laws, occasional aggressive driving can be encountered. Familiarize yourself with local driving customs, plan for traffic delays, and consider using a GPS for navigation to mitigate these difficulties and ensure a smoother travel experience.

The car should be illegal to rent. It was filthy dirty, had no wiper blades or windshield fluid, the steering wheel barely worked and the car vibrates when I went in excess of 30MPH. The airbag light was in so that also would not have deployed.

Pros:

Maybe I didn't reserve the car with enough anticipation because when I arrived to the airport, the agent said there was no availability. I was puzzled because I got two confirmation emails stating I had a car reserved. But the agent said I need to reserve at least 24 hours in advance. They had no cars available. I got no car. I had to call car insurance to reimburse me my money.

Cons:

Car agency and Kayak need to have better communication and coordination so the client can know what to expect by arrival.

Pros:

Nothing at all, it’s a rip off, they don’t give you options at all,car was dirty inside and out, no gas, not what I reserved, and the insurance I bought when made the reservation it’s NO good but theirs is the best!! I don’t understand if it’s a Budget franchise and they are all over the world the insurance from the USA and Bidget is from the USA some they make you buy theirs and make more $$ Now I have to call and get my reimbursement I hope I can get it back but I will NEVER rent from them again l

Cons:

KAYAK

Pros:

The staff was very friendly and efficient.

Cons:

The car pickup is not actually on airport as advertised, but a short drive away across the highway. Drop-off is at the airport. The car I got was in need of some maintenance. Various door lights came on and off while driving, with beeps. The handle to open the fuel tank is loose and pops off. The drivers seat was a little ripped. This vehicle was in need of some maintenance to address those issues or time to go to a lower quality rental agency, and an appropriately reduced price.

When I arrived to Mexico the MexCar representative didn’t find my reservation and didn’t honor the price I booked so I was forced to rent in another company. To make things worse I didn’t get reimbursed!!!

Trash service. Got forced to buy insurance even though I had my own. The insurance was more than the price of the rental. Added $437 (American) to the price of the rental. The vehicle was dirty. The brakes on the van were super worn off. Had issues stopping the van while driving. We got a flat tire. The spare was very cracked and also flat. We had to get the original and the spare fixed. The lug wrench is trash. And the jack to lift the van was defective. As I was lifting the van to remove the tire, the jack lost power and the van fell. Almost broke my arm. Overall a very bad experience. Would not recommend. Their vehicles are not well maintained and very dirty, to top it off.

I was told that the amount I paid at the time of registration was only a partial payment of the actual total, and was charged more than triple what I had originally paid. Their response was that I shouldn’t have reserved a vehicle through a 3rd party. Also it may take up to 30 minutes just to get the vehicle.

It was a new vehicle and roomy. The fact that they were ready to pick us up at the airport and drop us right off. I had also forgotten to check my pockets and give them back the key. The man that dropped us off was kind enough to come back to pick up the key. Thank goodness it only takes a minute when you drive :)
