KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Fremont
As a safe and quiet suburb, Fremont is a great place to be based not only when visiting San Francisco but also the whole of the Bay Area, especially when you have a rental car. But the city is a gem on its own right, so make sure to drive to popular attractions such as the Great Mall of the Bay Area, around 12 miles from the city center. For a natural escapade, head to Muir Woods, only 40 miles away.
The two closest airports to Fremont are San Jose International Airport (SJC) and Oakland International Airport (OAK). The Rental Car Center at SJC is located just across from the Terminal B exit. Passengers at Terminal A can take the blue shuttle all the way there. The Rental Car Center at OAK is at the airport’s North Field, and there is a shuttle bus operating between the facility and all the terminals.
Fremont’s geography is mainly defined by the hills on the east side and the bay on the west, but most of the city is concentrated on the bay side, which is easier to drive and navigate. Mission Boulevard is one of the main streets, and is one to avoid driving through if you don’t want to face crowds. Fremont is also a good introduction to driving in San Francisco’s famous hills.
While San Francisco may really struggle when it comes to traffic congestion, Fremont is more manageable. Still, it’s best to avoid both the morning rush hour (7:30-9 a.m.) and the evening rush hour (3:30-7 p.m.) in order to skip the worst traffic. The I-880 route to both Oakland Airport and San Jose Airport gets pretty crowded during peak hour, with travel times often doubling.
San Jose International Airport (SJC) is the closest airport rental location to Fremont. Fox Rent A Car, Alamo, Dollar, and National are some of the providers at SJC. The distance from the airport to Fremont city center is around 18 miles. The drive, via route I-880 N, takes roughly 20 minutes. On the other hand, Oakland International Airport (OAK) is a little further, about 22 miles away. Popular Fremont cheap car rental providers at OAK include Thrifty, Enterprise, and Hertz. The rental car center is open 24/7, ensuring that travelers with flights landing late at night or early in the morning can pick up their cheap car rentals in Fremont. The drive from OAK to Fremont city center takes around 25 minutes via I-880 S.
Cheap car rentals in Fremont are not only available at airport locations. The car rental center at Fremont city center provides a convenient spot for rental pick up and return for those not flying into the city. It is located along Central Avenue, at the heart of Fremont. To locate the rental counters, follow the 880 Freeway South and take the exit onto Thornton Avenue. Turn right onto Blacow Road, then another right onto Central Avenue. Budget and Avis have counters and provide a wide selection of vehicles fitting all needs. You can quickly grab your rental and immediately start your Californian vacation.
Getting around Fremont streets is easy once you’re familiar with the major freeways. The major freeway on the inland is the I-680, while on the bayside it’s the I-880, which do not intersect. Mission Boulevard intersects with I-680 at the North Mission and South Mission exits, also known as Exits 16 and 12, respectively. Similarly, Fremont Boulevard intersects with I-880 twice at the North Fremont and South Fremont, also Exits 22 and 13, respectively.
