KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Morelia

  • A car rental in Morelia will give you the freedom to travel to various places in the city. First visit the renowned and opulent Morelia Cathedral twin towers. Observe the Cathedrals and neighboring historic structures' baroque designs, which were constructed in the 17th and 18th centuries with the region's distinctive pink stones. Then take a drive to Morelia's central plaza, Plaza de Armas, which is awash in the nation's history. You can also drive to the old town to see the monument to the independence hero Jose Maria Morelos.
  • You must always present your international driver's license or a driver's license from another country to the car rental company while renting a vehicle in Morelia. Whenever you offer a license, keep in mind that it must be valid when renting the vehicle. You must have a passport, an identity card, and a credit card with a similar name to the one on the driver's license. The car rental company will copy these documents and give you the original copies.
  • Since there is no public transit at the Morelia airport, a car rental in Morelia is a viable alternative. It is a sure-fire way to visit your desired places and make stops and a quick and inexpensive option to go from the airport to the heart of Morelia. Having a rental car gives you the freedom to get around town, meet the people, and blend in.
  • You may explore many nearby destinations with your cheap car rental in Morelia. As soon as your car pulls into Guanajuato, you'll sense the pulse of a vibrant city. It is about 90 miles from Morelia and offers many fantastic places to see, such as Juarez Theater. Toluca, located about 110 miles distant, is another popular travel destination. One of the many reasons why people keep going back is Centro Dinámico Pegaso. Treat yourself to some fresh air at the Xochimilco Ecological Park and Plant Market, 140 miles away, after a hard day of traveling.
  • Driving in Morelia requires you to stick to the right. In addition, be cautious if this is your first time driving a vehicle in this location. Some drivers in this city are irresponsible, so make sure you understand how they drive, then unwind and enjoy.
  • If you're taking young children to Morelia, being aware of car seat regulations is critical. All passengers under the age of 12 must be securely restrained in a car seat or booster seat. Children under three must be secured in a car seat, while those between 3 and 11 must be buckled into a booster or car seat. If the child is taller than 4'9", heavier than 100 lbs, or older than eight, they can use a seat belt.
  • Roads get congested during morning and afternoon rush hours, just like at many destinations. However, Morelia doesn't experience much traffic because of its small population. On weekdays between 8 am and 11 am, Monday through Friday, and then from 7 am to 11 am on weekends, there is typically substantial traffic along the routes leading to and from the airport. During these busy times, always leave early to give yourself plenty of time and avoid the rush. For instance, arrive at the airport at least two hours prior to your flight if it is a domestic one. On the other hand, if you're traveling internationally, arrive at the airport two to three hours before takeoff to give yourself enough time to find the gate and have your bags checked by security.

Cons:

Hertz not only did not have the van we had reserved, they had NO CARS available. The staff was of no help and left us stranded to find taxis for 7 of us with all our luggage. It is clear that they don't honor reservations. This is not unique to Hertz. Sites need to stop offering car rental reservations for Mexico since there is zero guarantee that you will get what you've reserved.

I made a reservation for a compact basic car and upon arrival they told me they did not have the car available and overcharged me for their mistake of not having the car. I am truly disappointed that they took advantage of the fact that I needed the car and charged me double to get a car. I don't understand why Kayak would let me make a reservation for a car not available or why Sixt would allow the option for that car if they did not have it. So unfair, I will not be using Kayak or sixt in my future travel needs.

I rented with insurance coverage on my credit card, so I declined the coverage offered by Budget. Sometimes you get pushback but these guys were chill. When I returned the car I didn't get the feeling that they were searching for any type of ding or imperfection. So in general good impression. I Would recommend

Car wasn’t there, I had to wait an hour. They substituted a Kia Rio for a Volkswagen. Not an even close substitute. Car was on reserve when it arrived. Place was closed the day before after I was assured it was open. Had to wait day to finally get a stupid underpowered uncomfortable Rio.
