KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Duluth

  • Car rentals in Duluth are a convenient and comfortable way to travel throughout the city. The city does not have an extensive public transportation system, so driving is the best way to go between locations and neighborhoods. By having access to Duluth car rentals, you can easily go to sights that may not be as close to the city center. For example, there is the Spirit Mountain Recreation Area, which is around a 20min drive from downtown Duluth, as well as the Jay Cooke State Park, which can be reached by car in approximately 30min.
  • You can always book your car rentals in Duluth directly at Duluth International Airport (DLH). Duluth International Airport has a car rental center that is placed directly in the Arrivals terminal, not far from where baggage claim is located. The car rental center hosts several major rental companies, including Avis, Budget, Enterprise, and National.
  • To make sure that you operate car rentals in Duluth as safely as possible, it’s important that you learn about local driving laws and different driving tips for the area. For example, all children under the age of eight must always be in a proper safety seat. If you would like to pass a car on a two to four lane highway, you have the legal right to increase your speed limit by up to 10 mph over the designated speed limit. You also must always have your headlights on during fog, snow, sleet, rain, and hail.
  • If you want to avoid getting caught in a traffic jam, try not to be on the roads during rush hour, which is generally between 7:00 and 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 and 5:30 p.m. There are some roads in the city that tend to be more congested than others, and these include Interstates 35, 61, and 535. During the winter months, the city tends to have a lot of snow and rain, so you will also want to pay extra attention when driving in these conditions.
