Cheap car rentals in Jeddah
KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Jeddah
- Jeddah is a large city with numerous iconic landmarks and a wide range of hidden gems, and you are better off exploring these attractions in a rental car. Unlike public transport, which operates on a fixed schedule, car rentals in Jeddah guarantee flexibility. You will conveniently stop to experience Al Rahma Mosque, Corniche, and the Matbouli House Museum. If you are here for a long time, the cost of a car rental is cheaper than the cumulative bus fares. Also, rental cars are cleaner and more comfortable than public transportation.
- With many local and international car rental agencies operating on-site counters at King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED), you won’t have challenges collecting a rented car upon arrival. Immediately after you land, you can locate the car rental desks at the South Terminal or Terminal 1. Even if you reserved the car online, you would still have to visit the counter to clear with the company representatives. Once you have presented the relevant documentation, you will be guided to the parking lot to pick up your car—some agencies, including Best Rent A Car, Sixt, Hertz, Avis, and Budget.
- While driving car rentals in Jeddah can be a fun experience, there are distracted drivers just like in every city throughout the world. It is unsurprising for motorists to disregard traffic lights, and where they obey, horns are sounded immediately after the signals shift. Keep a keen eye on the limousine drivers who stop abruptly in the middle of the street when they sight a potential customer. They rarely pay attention to vehicles behind them, resulting in accidents. Furthermore, jaywalking in Jeddah is a concern, and drivers must be careful to avoid hitting a pedestrian.
- Jeddah experiences congested roads across the city. Therefore, driving during rush hour can be frustrating as traffic grinds to a standstill in most parts of the city. Usually, the morning traffic starts at around 6:30 am until 8:30 am. In the afternoon, congestion is between 4:30 pm and 7:30 pm Some streets, including Saari, Makaronah, King Abdulaziz in Balad, Al-Ruwais, Palestine, and Al-Andalus, have severe traffic in the morning and evening. To this day, skirting around them might be a good idea if you don’t want to delay reporting your children to school or reporting to work.

What type of car is recommended for driving in Jeddah?
Due to the sandy and rocky roads in Jeddah, consider renting 4x4 vehicles to explore the city and its surrounding area comfortably. However, renting a sedan with a 4WD might be a great idea if you are on a tight budget. The sedan is slightly raised off the ground, preventing it from damaging bumps and rocks. Small and less powerful Jeddah car rentals get stuck in the sand easily. Most importantly, get a car with a large fuel tank, as gas stations lie far apart.
What’s the speed limit in Jeddah?
Jeddah is Saudi’s largest city and has busy roads with controlled speed limits. Violating these regulations will get you in trouble with the authorities. For instance, the speed limit for car rentals in Jeddah on national highways is 80 km/h (50 mph) for trucks, 100 km/h (62 mph) for buses and 140 km/h (87 mph) for private cars. Furthermore, you must not exceed 50 km/h (31 mph) in built-up areas and maintain 70 km/h (43 mph) in urban areas.
Where are the best places to park in Jeddah?
Hotels provide some of the best parking lots in Jeddah, including Radisson Blu Hotel, Vertal Hotel, Movenpick Hotel City Star, Mirage Hotel, Narcissus Al Hamra hotel, Frontal Jeddah Hotel Altahlia, and Beach Time Villas Hotel. In most cases, this hotel parking is free if you are residing on the property. In downtown Jeddah, you will find metered street parking at al Al-Balad or Al-Hindawiya at SR3 ( around $0.8) per hour. Typically, parking is available between 8 am and 11 pm, except on Fridays. In other areas, you may only be allowed to park for a maximum of 3 hours.

Pros:
Staff was friendly, and personableCons:
The location address given was wrong. It took me to the middle of the road. I ended up paying a taxi a lot of money to drive me to 3 different locations before finding the right one. It took over an hr to do the paperwork and get my car. For drop-off I was told I could drop it off early and there would be someone there to take me tk the airport. When I arrived nobody was there and I had to scramble to find an uber to get to airport on time2.0 Poor

Pros:
Enterprise owned their mistakes by reimbursing me for the transportation and gave me a discount of the car rental.Cons:
My flight was to North Terminal, however, the pick up was at Terminal 1. Enterprise failed to pick up me from terminal as well as failed to pick up the phone. Terminal 1 is new terminal and it still lacks informative signing for car return and car rental offices. At rhe pick up I could not have dealt with the procedure without of an interpreter as the person at the desk did not speak any other language except Arabic.2.0 Poor
