As a tourist in Saint Petersburg, the best way to see this exciting city is by car. Within the comfort of your own car, rather than taking the time-consuming public transport, you can visit all the sights at your own pace. From exploring the coast of Tampa Bay to the Museum of Fine Arts, you can easily access all the sights with the luxury of a rental car.
Looking forward to renting a car on your trip to Saint Petersburg? When you fly into Tampa International Airport, the on-site car rental desks can be located using the SkyConnect train from the Main Terminal. If you have booked an off-site car rental company, you can use the courtesy vehicle service in the Red and Blue Baggage Claim areas. It is really easy to find a rental car in the terminal.
Driving around Saint Petersburg is a very laid back, thanks to its navigable roads. When you are in your car, it’s good to know that cyclists have the same rights to the roadways as other vehicles, so they must obey the same traffic laws. Throughout Florida, drivers must always keep headlights on and may turn right at a red light unless a “no turn on red” sign is posted.
In Saint Petersburg, the rush hour begins in the morning between 7:30 am and 9:30 am and again in the afternoon from 3:30 pm to 7:30 pm. During these peak times, it’s best to avoid the popular I-275 exits and Hillsborough Avenue as well as the Veterans Expressway. It’s a good idea to steer clear of driving during rush hour on Monday mornings and Friday evenings, along with national holidays.
When using cheap car rentals in St. Petersburg to travel with children, it will be necessary to adhere to the child car safety laws and regulations. The law requires all children up to the age of 3 to be in separate carriers or child restraint devices, or the integrated child car seat provided with the car rental. Children between the ages of 4 and 5 should always be in an approved booster seat or child seat. Check with your car rental service provider to make sure they provide car seats for rent upon reserving your car rental. Alternatively, you can use any of the several child car seat rental services provided in St. Petersburg.
St. Petersburg car rentals provide you with rental car insurance, which covers liability insurance in the basic car rental contract. The liability insurance provided in the basic car rental contract covers bodily injury liability insurance and property liability coverage. However, if you already have your personal automobile insurance policy that includes an extensive range of coverages, this will be applied as an extension to the basic car rental insurance policy provided in the car rental contract.
When using cheap car rentals in St. Petersburg, you are likely to use Interstate 4, which is one of the major routes in the city. Make sure to be extra vigilant when using Interstate 4 as it is the highway with the most traffic accidents nationally. Also look out for lane blocking from other drivers, which may be especially challenging for drivers who are not used to driving in St. Petersburg during rush hour when there is heavy traffic.

When I went to go pick up the car. The Avis person was very stressed and a little off putting and very quickly said they wouldn’t give me a car until after my scheduled appointment time. They had a few suvs and a lot of electric cars on their lot (none of which classes I ordered.) I was very calm and explained that I had an appointment I had to make, so they gave me a different class of car. The car was fine, just not what I ordered. Return experience was fine

9.2 Wonderful

Elijah, Jul 2020

Pros:

The car was a beautiful brand new 2020 model. The interior was sparkling clean and the exterior only had a few chipped paint spots. The car drove smoothly and fit my wife and I’s need.

Cons:

The staff at the pickup location was rude. Was not friendly and could’ve made the process of checking in for the car for enjoyable and less stressful.

Jacob, Apr 2021

Pros:

Drop off at SFB was easy. We had to change our drop-off location mid-trip and this was easy to do over the phone using the “rental extension” phone number on our initial receipt.

Cons:

Was traveling with an IL driver’s license that had its expiration date extended 6 months by the state of IL due to Covid-19. No issues with TSA in 3 different airports. No issues anywhere except Hertz in St. Petersburg where the store manager would not allow me to pick up the car. In the state of FL, Hertz does not have good options for dealing with toll roads. You can either pay an exorbitant amount of money up-front (for our rental period something like $70, way more than the amount we would pay in tolls), or you can get charged afterwards for the tolls you use + a $10 administrative fee for each. There are several toll roads where you can only “pay by plate” or transponder and there is no option for paying with cash, so if you don’t know the area and your navigation takes you on one of these roads, Hertz has you over a barrel.
