Your budget and your travel itinerary will play a role in determining your ideal match. When getting a car rental in Macon, you should know that driving in the city frequently entails navigating narrow streets and few parking spots. However, a compact might make this less intimidating. If you wish to escape the city and enjoy the renowned sandy beaches of Macon, you might need a vehicle with more space for passengers. A full-size or mid-size SUV will be suitable for road trips.
Probably. While it is legal to rent a car in Georgia when you are 21, most cheap car rentals in Macon charge drivers under 25 a daily fee for being a Young Renter. But, when you are looking into cheap car rentals in Macon, ask each rental agency if they would consider waiving the fee - after all, some rental car companies in Georgia have been known to not charge young renters.
Although Macon's speed limits might vary, they usually fall between 25 mph and 70 mph. Remember that the average speed limit in Macon is 75 mph if you find yourself on a highway. Unless otherwise indicated, most residential roads have a 35 mph maximum speed limit.
It depends how old your kids are and how much they weigh. Georgia law requires that infants younger than 1 be secured in a baby seat. However, if they are 20 pounds or heavier, they can use a toddler seat. Kids 1 to 3 are required to sit in a toddler seat, but they can use a booster seat if they're 40 pounds or heavier. Kids 4 to 8 need to use a booster seat, but they can just use a seat belt if they are heavier than 80 pounds or taller than 4 feet 9 inches.
If you are looking for a place to park your car in Macon, free parking is accessible by foot from Walnut Street and Cherry Street between MLK Jr. Blvd. and Fifth Street. These parkings have two-hour parking restrictions daily. There are also several public parking garages near Poplar Street and Third Street. These public parking garages include Mulberry Street Garage, 427 Poplar Street Garage, 402 Cherry Street Garage, and 577 Mulberry Street Garage. We advise parking in one of the downtown parking garages if you need to leave your car for more than three hours because they are typically less expensive than metered parking.

They call me the day I was supposed to pick up the SUV and told me they didn't have one in and they would call me when they get one keep in mind I suppose have picked up the vehicle on Friday and it's Sunday and I still haven't heard nothing from them. That's very unprofessional. So in other words I never recieved the Vehicle.10.0 Wonderful

The best I can say about the Chevy van is AWFUL! When I made reservation for van it was a picture of a Ford Transit. Went and test drove one (used Transit) ride and space a 1000 times better. Chevy was cramped noisy in every seat. If you can't produce just Don't show picture!8.0 Very good

Apr 2017
Pros:
Enough space for me and my husband's luggage. The most inexpensive of all the other cars we saw online.Cons:
There was no one at the counter when we arrived so waited for quite a bit, about to 20-30 mins, to pick up the rental. Also, the lady seemed a bit annoyed that we came to pick up the car earlier than reserved. However our plans changed last minute. Lastly, in the rental after we had already left Macon the oil change light came on and the car wasn't running the greatest. Definitely a big turn off considering we were driving to Fort Lauderdale.2.0 Poor
