KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Cali

  • Consider renting car rentals in Cali so you can travel around and take in the lively city's attractions and those of the other towns. In Cali, there are numerous rental vehicle companies. Additionally, renting a car in Cali will make traveling outside the city convenient. To visit El Cristo Rey, for instance, you may travel a distance of 5 miles. Renting a car will allow you to comfortably explore both the sights within Cali and those beyond the city.
  • To optimize your driving experience in Cali, Colombia, it's highly advisable to become familiar with the major roads in the area after renting Cali car rentals.  Autopista Sur is a major north-south highway that runs through the city, connecting the southern neighborhoods to the downtown area. It can be busy during peak traffic times, so it's important to be patient and aware of other drivers. Avenida Roosevelt is a major east-west avenue that runs through the northern part of the city. It connects to the airport and several important neighborhoods, including Granada and San Fernando. It's important to watch out for pedestrians and bicycles, as this avenue can be crowded.
  • Your best option for quickly reaching your predetermined locations inside the city after landing at Cali Alfonso B. Aragon Intl Airport is to rent a car. The airport offers vehicle rentals. Avis,  Alamo, and Localiza are a few of the well-known automobile rental companies at the airport. These can be found at Schiphol Boulevard 195 and provide a variety of cars, including minivans, compact, standard SUVs, and economic models.
  • Colombia has strict drunk driving laws that are enforced throughout the country, including in Cali. The legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is set at 0.05%, which is consistent with international standards. Driving cheap car rentals in Cali under the influence of alcohol is considered an offense, and penalties can include fines, license suspension, and revocation. Injuries or fatalities that result from a drunk driving accident can result in even harsher penalties.
  • There are some restricted roads in Cali so you need to be aware of any signs posted about the various restrictions as you drive cheap car rentals in Cali.  Zona Rosa, for example, is a popular nightlife district in Cali, and some of the streets in this area are closed to vehicle traffic on weekends and holidays to create a pedestrian-only zone. Carrera 10 is a major north-south avenue that runs through the downtown area of Cali, and some sections of it are restricted to public transportation vehicles only during certain hours of the day.
  • The common streets of Cali City are notorious for having a large number of jaywalkers, just like any other city in Colombia. As a result, you should exercise caution when operating your rental car because pedestrians can come out of nowhere. In the city, bikers and motorists both use the same roads. They should be treated as automobiles because it is legal for them to travel in the far right lane. For instance, you should signal when passing them as you get closer and never do so in the same lane.
  • Cali's morning rush hour is between 6:30 am and 8 am. The morning rush hour is at these times. Also, there is frequently a lot of traffic on the roads later in the evening when people are returning from work, which is between 4 pm and 6:30 pm.

Always consider take the full coverage insurance. Driving in Cali is challenging, and the possibility that the side mirrors get robbed is high. Don't let the car overnight park on the street, consider a closed paid parking.

Last but not least, renting an SUV with Cali car rentals is essential during the winter. SUVs have greater ground clearance, making them perfect for navigating icy roads.

There is not a physical office to pick-up the car. The address referenced was a empty place. I had to call the provided phone to know how is the pick-up procedure. Will be better if there is a note in the pick-up instructions to inform that you need to call to make the pick-up arrangements. The drop-off is the same, you need to call to make arrangements to drop-off the car.

The location I was sent to no longer exists. We were able to find their new location, However they were out of vehicles. Even Though the system allowed me to book and they could see it. Thank - God, i am fluent in Spanish, this would have been an absolute nightmare for a non-speaker. Being that this happens in a 3rd would country, this is very dangerous. Addresses and phone numbers need to be properly checked as well as inventory.
