KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in San Gabriel

  • Having car rentals in San Gabriel means you don't have to wait for ride-share services or rely on public transportation.

With a car rental in San Gabriel, you can create a personalized itinerary and explore attractions that are of specific interest to you, giving you a more customized travel experience.

It is illegal to use a handheld cell phone while driving in California. Visitors should use hands-free devices, pull over to a safe location to make calls, or use navigation apps. California has carpool lanes (High Occupancy Vehicle or HOV lanes) on many highways. These lanes are designated for vehicles with two or more occupants or eligible clean-air cars.
  • On weekdays, between 7:00 am and 9:00 am, and sometimes even beyond, traffic can be heavier as commuters travel to work or school, leading to congestion on main roads such as San Gabriel Boulevard, Las Tunas Drive, Valley Boulevard, and Del Mar Avenue. You will also find this is an issue on weekday evenings, typically between 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm. You can also find heavier traffic during events here, such as when there are events at the San Gabriel Mission Playhouse Events and during the San Gabriel Chalk Art Festival in the summer.

Oly was a wonderful person who provided a couple of different models that were available. He did not rush me and explained the features on the vehicle before I left. It was an experience I have never had and highly recommend Avis in Alhambra.
