KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Milpitas

  • If you are planning to travel to Milpitas, getting Milpitas car rentals is the best transport option within and around the city. These cars offer the flexibility you desire when moving around and visiting attractions and off-road destinations not served by major transport options. The car rentals in the city will enable you to travel to South Lake Tahoe, 152 mi Northeast of the city, take a biting at Novo Restaurant & Lounge or take a beauty treatment at the Madonna Inn Resort & Spa, both located about 157 mi to the Southeast of Milpitas. The car also allows you to cover 150 miles to Donner Memorial State Park and Grover Rock – Lake Tahoe Nevada State Park or travel to Lower Twin Lake Campground, located 149 mi to the city's Northeast.
  • If you are traveling to the city via the San Francisco Airport, you can access car rentals at the airport’s main car rental center on McDonnell Road. To get to the facility, board the AirTrain Blue Line to the car rental center. You can also get car rentals in Milpitas from the San Jose Airport car rental facility situated in the airport’s Terminal A lower level. To access the car rental center, take the free shuttle bus to Terminals A or B or optionally go down the escalator from the arrival terminal. The airport's car rental companies include Avis, Alamo, Budget, Hertz, Europcar, National, Dollar, Thrifty, Payless, Fox and Enterprise.
  • When driving car rentals in Milpitas, you must stop when the school bus ahead of you stops or flashes the red warning lights. If the bus is on a two-lane road with no median, traffic must stop on both roadsides. Pedestrians always have the right of way in the city's marked and unmarked crosswalks. You must slow down or come to a complete stop. The drivers in California can be slightly more aggressive than other states, so you must be on the lookout and be attentive while driving.
  • The rush hours between Monday and Friday start from around 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM as residents hurry to work, while the evening rush hours start from around 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM. It would be best if you plan your trips around these times or visit locations that lead away from traffic. In case you are planning to travel on weekends, not that the evening traffic on weekend nights is especially heavy in downtown and on feeder roads.

2.0 Poor

Anonymous, Dec 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

Definitely none. Vehicle was not at the agreed location confirmation.

Cons:

Besides vehicle being in the wrong location confirmed, the agent tried to give me a standard truck instead of a premium. I rent often with Hertz or Enterprise primarily and am usually satisfied. I chose not to take the rental this time. VERY DISAPPOINTED !!! Waste of my time...

4.0 Mediocre

Philip, May 2021

KAYAK

Pros:

The pick up location (And drop off) were not at the airport, but at a remote location that required us to Uber to that location from the airport for an additional expense.

Cons:

Hertz itself was fine, but Kayak should have highlighted that the rental location was not on the airport property.

8.0 Very good

Anonymous, Apr 2021

KAYAK

Cons:

Final billing. In the final bill email, I was charged the weekly rate for the daily rate and had to rush back to the rental car desk to get adjusted after I had gotten to my airport gate. I could not get a person on the phone to help me and had to go back in person. It was stressful.
