KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Alexandria

  • The easiest and least time-consuming method to see the sights in the region is in a car rental in Alexandria. Some bus lines only operate during rush hour, which is another reason why hiring a car service is better than taking the bus. Car rental is your best bet if you want to explore more of Alexandria and the surrounding area than you could if you depended just on public transportation or walked everywhere. If you want to see more, strolling alone will not go far.
  • Cheap car rentals in Alexandria gives you an opportunity to make various day trips to nearby cities or states without any restrictions. For instance, with your rental car, you can conveniently drive from Alexandria to cities like Pineville, Natchitoches, and Eunice. In light traffic, it takes about 1 hour to drive from Alexandria to Natchitoches or Eunice. Apart from these cities, you can visit states neighboring Louisiana, including Texas, Arkansas, and Mississippi.
  • Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) offers car rentals in Alexandria that may be picked up at the terminal. There are many options for renting a car, including Avis, Budget, Thrifty, and Hertz, to name just a few. Therefore, it is strongly suggested that you hire a vehicle at this airport. Car rental age requirements may be as low as 18 in various nations. Having a credit card and a driver's license that is in good standing are also necessities. Non-U.S. and U.K. drivers will need an International Driver's Permit in addition to their home country's driver's license.
  • If you are driving your rental car alongside your child, ensure you comply with the child seat rule in Alexandria. For children that are below 9 years, the law requires that they must always travel while in belt-positioning booster seats. On the other hand, if your child is below 4 years old, you must ensure that they are in a forward-facing car seat with an internal harness. You will get booster seats at any of the car rental locations across Alexandria. However, you will have to pay some additional daily fees for each booster seat or child seat.
  • Getting about in a rental car in Alexandria is a breeze due to the roads' excellent condition and the local motorists' general friendliness. Every major thoroughfare in the city goes through the middle of town, so everyone has to be on high alert. Keep at least three seconds of space between your car and the car in front of you, indicate your turns early and clearly, and stay in your lane while driving in Alexandria. Following these suggestions should make your time behind the wheel much more relaxing.
  • All the cheap car rentals in Alexandria, likely any other city in Louisiana, require anyone renting a car to be at least 21 years or older. When you come to pick up your car from any of the car rental locations in Alexandria, you must have a valid driver’s license with a clear photo. The license has to remain valid for the entire rental period. Apart from the driver’s license, you also need to have a major credit card or debit card when coming to pick up your car. Both the license and the debit or credit card must be in your name.
  • Renters of Alexandria car rentals are responsible for being aware that pedestrians often cross roads without first ensuring that traffic is evident in both directions. There are times during the day when it is more probable that some of the streets in Alexandria will be highly congested with the amount of traffic on the roadways. The city's central business center is characterized by traffic conditions that are consistently difficult to navigate. The times of day that see the highest traffic on the roads are from seven to nine in the morning and four to six in the evening.

When I went to pick up the vehicle, they told me they didn’t do same day pick ups. When I ordered the car online, there was no issue placing the order and nothing that said they didn’t do same day pickups. I mentioned that nothing was said online about this, and I didn’t receive and email or call or text explaining otherwise. She said “well our inventory guy doesn’t do his job”. So I drove out of my way, and thought I had a car secured, but I didn’t and was met with rude customer service.
