KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Amarillo
Since it’s not a large city with an extensive public transportation system, it’s recommended to explore Amarillo with the convenience of a personal car. If you can’t bring your own, consider renting one from car rentals in Amarillo. Most of the cars have updated maps to help you easily navigate the city and its surroundings without having to worry about getting lost. You can explore destinations such as Cadillac Ranch, 10 miles south of Amarillo, then find your way to Paro Duro Canyon State Park, 26 miles from Amarillo.
Once you arrive at the Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport, you can choose your car from the car rental facility located within the airport. You can easily find the rental car counter in the baggage claim area and the car will be parked right outside the baggage claim. Some of these rental companies include Avis, National, and Enterprise. You may find it easier to book your car through KAYAK and have it waiting for you at the airport terminal.
One important thing you should be wary of when driving in Amarillo is cell phone prohibition. It’s largely prohibited in Texas, so be careful if you plan to venture out and enjoy the attractions the state has to offer. Still, you may use a hands-free feature such as Bluetooth, speakerphone, or a voice-activated device.
There is little to no traffic in Amarillo, making the locals refer to their rush-hour as "rush minute" instead. This is mostly between 7am and 8am. Ross-Mirror Street, Washington Street, and Georgia Street are among the busiest roads in Amarillo. Only a few Downtown Amarillo streets are slightly tricky to navigate, as they are one-way streets. However, this is no different from most towns, so if you’re careful, you’ll be okay.
One of the things that drivers of car rentals in Amarillo need to know about before they get behind the wheel are the seatbelt laws that exist in the state of Texas. In the state of Texas, every passenger in a vehicle needs to be wearing a seatbelt when they're riding in car rentals in Amarillo. Children that are eight years old or less or are less than 4'9" tall must ride in either an approved child safety seat or a booster seat. Remember that it is the driver of Amarillo car rentals that is responsible for every passenger having the proper safety belt or car seat.
While we all love to have our mobile devices with us at all times, there are specific rules and laws regarding the use of mobile devices when driving car rentals in Amarillo. Laws in Texas state that you may not text, email, browse the internet, or browse social media while you are driving a vehicle. You can use a mobile device to do things such as use the built-in GPS in the phone or to make and receive phone calls on a mobile device so long as the driver is doing so in a hands-free manner.
Some of the reasons that people had to Amarillo and make use of cheap car rentals in Amarillo is because of some of the amazing annual events that occur in the city every year. No trip to Texas would be complete without a rodeo, and in June, a great thing to do with Amarillo car rentals is head to the Coors Cowboy Club Ranch Rodeo. The event takes place in Amarillo Tri-State Fairgrounds. Therefore, to be on the safe side, you will want to avoid driving along 3301 10th Ave.

I wish I could Rent the car at the airport and pick it up downtown, even we had a reservation we couldn't, i ws trying to get the car at 8;00am at the Airport instead of the downtown officce that open at 8:30, I had to get to Amarillo airport by taxi ; your representative wasn't willing to help by the way she arrive at least 20 minutes late to Entreprise counter, we had to move to downtown office and start the whole process instead of just get there and pick it up , lady at amarillo downtown office was very attentive and kind.
