KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Friendswood

  • Friendswood car rentals provide convenience and flexibility, allowing visitors to explore the city and its surroundings at their own pace. A rental car offers greater mobility and access to remote or less frequented attractions than alternative public transit. Worthwhile destinations that become more accessible with a vehicle include Galveston Island with its beautiful beaches, the Space Center Houston, and the Kemah Boardwalk, offering an enjoyable experience for tourists and locals alike.
  • At Houston Hobby Airport (HOU), travelers can rent a car on-site from more than ten car rental companies. The rental car offices are conveniently located in the Consolidated Rental Car Facility, accessible by a free shuttle from the airport terminals. Also, off-site rental companies offer pick-up services from the airport.

While trucks can be spotted, cars and SUVs are the most common vehicles on the road.

During these periods, major roads like FM 528, FM 518, and FM 2351 are most affected by heavy traffic.
