KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Seneca

  • Compared to public buses, which are preferred by more travelers thanks to their affordability, car rentals in Seneca have a number of benefits. With a rental car, you can choose your own comfortable travel times and drive wherever you want, increasing your freedom while you car-trip to different parts of the city. Since buses must follow set routes and departure times, this is not possible using public transit. One location you might think about driving to with your rental car—if you want to enjoy some of the wonderful outdoors—is High Falls County Park. It’s less expensive to use Seneca car rentals than to always take a taxi, if you want to visit as many tourist attractions as possible.
  • The primary entry point to Seneca for visitors from far away is likely Knoxville McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS). Additionally, this airport serves as a popular pick-up spot for car rentals in Seneca. After you land and retrieve your luggage, you can quickly walk to the Rental Car Center, which is next to baggage claim, on the lower floor of the airport terminal building. Alamo, National, Enterprise, and Avis are a few of the car-rental companies that have rental counters inside this airport.
  • You should be aware that most of the roads in downtown Seneca have a lot of pedestrians and bicyclers present, especially in the morning and evening. Pedestrians frequently cross roads without looking for oncoming traffic. Many drivers in Seneca, particularly those operating big trucks, don’t respect the right of way and will enter intersections whenever they feel like it. Seneca roads, on the other hand, are typically in excellent condition and contain informative road signs, making city driving less frantic.
  • Using car rentals in Seneca is significantly less convenient during the morning rush hour, which typically lasts from 6:30 am to 9:30 am, the worst traffic occurring between 7 am and 8 am. Every day of the week from approximately 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm sees similar traffic congestion, Friday being the worst. Highway 123 has the most traffic of any road in the city.

  • What type of car is recommended for renting in Seneca?

    Seneca has mostly wide, well-maintenanced highways that can accommodate any type of vehicle. However, a compact automobile will be a good choice if you want to drive your rental car in or around the downtown area, where the majority of streets are noticeably narrower and have a higher volume of traffic. This kind of vehicle can readily fit in crowded parking lots, as well as narrow streets.

  • What’s the speed limit in Seneca?

    Unless otherwise stated, Seneca drivers are expected to keep to a 30 mph speed limit downtown. The speed limit, however, frequently changes from one area or road to another. For example, even though it’s not stated, the majority of roads in residential areas have a 20 mph speed limit. Additionally, this low speed limit is in effect while driving through school zones at certain times of day and on some streets in the downtown financial area. You can go a bit faster on major divided highways, where the posted speed limit is typically 65 mph on roads such as Highway 123.

  • What are the best places to park in Seneca?

    The parking garage on Main Street and the parking at the 123 Bypass are two locations in Seneca where you can count on finding a spot for your car. At either of these locations, you may park your automobile for roughly $1 per hour. Every day of the week, both parking garages are accessible 24 hours a day. In addition to these, you can park your car at most any of the Seneca hotels, which include free parking for guests, among their many amenities.

Pros:

The car performed fine other than the odor. The delivery person was pleasant. The convenience of dropping the car at the airport was very nice.

Cons:

The delivery of the car was slower than I would have expected. Was told 15 minutes and it was closer to 30. I was late to my appointment. The car had an awful smell of black cherry and cigarettes- we had to make the trip with the windows down. Noticed my credit card was charged 45.49 versus my Kayak receipt of 41.06. Had to call Enterprise. Their first response was that it was a road side assistance charge(that I did not agree to). I told them that sounds like a scam. They put me on hold then they agreed to take the charge off.

Dec 2019

KAYAK

Pros:

7 passenger van was easy to drive & blind spot aids were A+. Vehicle was very clean. Owner's overview manual was in glove compartment!!!!! Lots of controls on steering wheel and in unusual places, so manual was helpful.

Cons:

The van was delivered 5 hours late! This was a major problem as we had to pick up additional drivers an hour away - their local office had closed, the airport counter could not add them, so we had to take a detour to find an office to add them. And we were not advised the extra fee was $13.95 per day per drier! 2 rear seatbelts did not buckle & one 2nd row seat did not adjust back making for an uncomfortable & less safe ride.

Car was fine. It no GPS.

Cons:

Picked up car and a very stressed and grumpy regional manager gave us our car. He complained about new employees, electricity outage, problems with the printer and that making everything stressful. Wasn't a pleasant beginning to our car adventure dealing with someone who was so grumpy and didn't smile. After driving we noticed there was a lot of hair on the back ledge behind passenger seats.

The car was ready when I arrived. I rented the car through Kayak and only paid $174 for 6 days with unlimited mileage. Drop off was quick and since I was able to leave my car there I was on my way home without having to get a ride.

No car was available at my pickup time. I had to wait around for a while for one to come available. It was not a long time and the car they gave me ended up being an upgrade so they tried to compensate for the problem, but it was strange that there was nothing at all available at my rental time.
