KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Amsterdam
- Renting cheap car rentals in Amsterdam can provide many advantages. For one, having a car allows for more freedom and flexibility, as you can come and go as you please, without having to rely on public transportation schedules. This is especially important if you plan to visit attractions or destinations outside the city, where public transportation options may be limited. One popular destination just a short drive away from Amsterdam is the Saratoga Race Course, which is home to world-renowned horse racing events. With Amsterdam car rentals, you can also visit nearby towns like Troy or Schenectady, which are less than an hour’s drive away.
- Albany International Airport (ALB) is approximately 42 miles from Amsterdam. The rental car offices at ALB are located in the consolidated rental car facility, which is a short shuttle ride from the terminal. The shuttle is located outside the baggage claim area and runs 24 hours a day. New Windsor Stewart Airport (SWF) is approximately 84 miles from Amsterdam. The car rental facilities at SWF are located outside the terminal building in the parking lot, to the right of the entrance. There is a shuttle bus that picks up passengers just outside the baggage claim area.
- If you plan to drive cheap car rentals in Amsterdam, there are a few things you should keep in mind. One unique rule to be aware of in Amsterdam is the city's "snow emergency" policy. If the city gets a significant amount of snow, the mayor may declare a snow emergency, which means that all cars parked on city streets need to be moved to designated parking lots to allow for plowing. Not complying with this policy can result in fines and the possibility of having your vehicle towed. Bicycles are also quite common in Amsterdam, so it's important to watch out for them and give them plenty of space when passing.
- Rush hour in Amsterdam tends to be between 7 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 6 pm on weekdays. The most affected roads during rush hour include Erie Blvd, Market St, and Main St. Winter in the area can also cause difficult driving conditions for cheap car rentals in Amsterdam due to snow and ice. Some of the roads that may be affected during winter include Route 5S, Route 30, and Route 67. Additionally, the rural areas outside of Amsterdam may have muddy zones, particularly in the spring, when roads can become muddy due to snowmelt and rainfall. Drivers will need to exercise caution when driving in these areas.

Pros:
Staff remained professional and friendly in poor working conditionsCons:
Leave the pick up inside the airport and have someone deliver the cars to the door or have a golf cart to take the customer out to the car, it is very difficult dragging all your luggage out to a garage not knowing where your going. A handicapped person (me) will not do it again because I have bad legs and was so sore and tired when I finally got in the car I should not have been driving especially a car I’m not used to. And no there was nobody around to offer help just a sign saying go outside where our staff is working in a dark dingy shack !10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
Staff at counter was friendlyCons:
--Staff at counter was unable to be reached by phone. Drove 3 1/2 hours each way (NYC --> Albany) to drop off old rental and pick up a new one, then was told at counter that I needn't have made the drive in the first place and I could've just kept the original rental. --Car smelled of cigarettes. Was told to just write down the issue on my rental agreement. --Staff at counter was unable to be reached by phone a second time (and I called over 20 times). This became an issue when I had to extend my new rental. --Toll-free customer service was completely useless when I contacted them to voice my concerns. --In a word, Avis = terrible. I've been an Enterprise customer for 12 years, and I'm kicking myself for using Avis this time.6.0 Okay

Jan 2018
Pros:
The girl on the counter at albany airport went out ger way to help and sort of the mess left by the schenectedy branch. Cant praise her enough and would give her 6 stars if i could. I had to give three stars because of the poor experience at schenectedy she sorted out for me. Talking to her at drop off it appears other people had the same experience. Give this girl a promotion as without her my holiday would have been ruined.Cons:
Schenectedy hertz, arranged to pick up my ar on the 26th of december for a week, pick up time was half 12 but they failed to tell me they shut at 1 and would be shut for three days after that. Even when i phoned to clarify a couple of details the day before, was no mention of them closing 5 hours before every other hertz in new york state. I had to pay a little extra to pick my car up at albany because of this but was well worth it to not lose half my rental if albany hertz hadnt sorted this mess out. 5 stars to her, 1 star to schenectedy.3.6 Poor
Sep 2017
Pros:
No problem Ken with drop offCons:
Agents couldn't figure out that if the Schenectady office was closed that the Albany airport was the next best option. Kept wanting me to rerun the car either to New Jersey or Syracuse. Neither would get me near my destination. People need to Learn some geography'
