You don’t have to be a solo traveler when touring vast Minneapolis because you can rent a van to take you and your friends anywhere you need to be. Minivans carry at least five people. The bigger vans have a seating capacity of up to 15 people. Remember to take limited luggage as the passenger vans can only carry up to 5 large bags. So make a point of prioritizing the essential, especially if you are going on a long trip.
If you plan on staying around Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport, book your van as soon as you land, or even better, do it online. There are no other reliable means of transport to get you to your destination. Most buses operate short trips between the big city and near the airport. Most rental companies in Minneapolis prefer renting bigger vans—which carry six people or more. You should be able to find a van that meets your needs if you look at the right places, such as Hertz.
Whether you are looking to rent a van for a special occasion like a wedding or a company looking to engage in team-building activities, a van is a perfect way to travel. It offers comfort, convenience, and the fun of traveling together, not to mention enjoying all the scenery together. If you’re looking to book a 15-seater van in Minneapolis, consider booking and paying as fast as possible, as vans are not always available. In fact, there is no pay at the counter policy. So have your money ready when you decide to hire a van.
Those traveling with children or elderly parents or relatives can book a minivan or van depending on the number of people traveling. You also need to consider a safer, comfortable, and spacious model to get everyone enjoying the trip. Most vans are designed to handle tough terrains and keeping everyone intact in their seats.
Book your van rental in Minneapolis at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
January is typically the cheapest month to rent a van in Minneapolis, with prices around $87 per day. The most expensive month is July, with average prices of $206 per day.

Which is the best car rental location in Minneapolis to rent a van?
The majority of the car rental companies in Minneapolis don’t rent vans, but that doesn’t mean you won’t find what you’re looking for in this massive city. The city has a well-connected public transport means which explains the fewer number of car rental companies across the city. However, to get you in the right direction, check rental companies along Humphrey drive, such as Hertz. Here, you can find almost any car you’re looking for. The most common rented vans include Ford, Nissan and Toyota.
Which is the most reliable van brand to rent in Minneapolis?
Since vans are not so common in Minneapolis, a great rule of thumb is to rent what other people rent. If you have a specific brand in mind, avoid wasting your time, energy and resources going to the city center. Simply head to Humphrey drive and check the options available. Hertz is popularly known to rent Ford and Nissan vans with a seating capacity of 12.
Where are the best places to park vans in Minneapolis?
Minneapolis is generally a safe city, especially if you are traveling in groups. However, it’s always prudent to avoid parking in uncontrolled parking zones in the city. Most tourist destinations will have a parking area, but you may not find any space if you’re late. Always keep the doors and windows locked every time you park.
Are there “pay at the counter” options when renting vans in Minneapolis?
Unfortunately, there is no pay at the counter option when you rent a van in Minneapolis. However, the “Pay now” option comes with a discount. You simply need to check what is available and determine whether it’s an excellent option for you or not. If it’s a great option, you can pay and reserve the vehicle immediately. Remember, vans are limited stock.
How does KAYAK find such low van rental prices?
KAYAK compares van rental prices from all major car rental companies such as Thrifty, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, Payless and more to find you the best deal.

The pickup experience at the airport with the empty tables and shuttles that drive away was quite bad.

Pick up was interesting, no one at the counter and a 35 min wait for the shuttle for pick. That was the only mediocre part of the whole experience. Everyone was nice and friendly and counter help and drop off went with ease.

Rental counters at MSP are quite a distance from the terminal. Not the rental agencies fault it’s the airport. Once arriving at the rental counter the experience was very smooth. Checked in, shuttle to the off-site location met at the door by an agent who performs the car walk around with you and you’re away. Return was simple, pull into the designated area. Met by an agent. A walk around, check of the mileage even though it’s unlimited, asked if I needed a ride to the airport. Walk the short distance to the shuttle, board and taken to the drop off location at the airport. Off-site at MSP actually seems better than the onsite. Upon your return to the airport you cut the distance to the terminal by about half. Rather nice if you’re limited on time getting checked in and going through security.

I arrived at MSP late, due to a delayed flight. When I got to the Thrifty counter, it was closed, with a sign directing me to the Hertz Gold booth on another floor. After slogging to the Hertz Gold booth, I found a long line being serviced by one employee, who repeatedly left to...well, I'm actually not sure what he was doing. But to be generous, he may have been going to deal with issues in the parking lot. (Just before I reached the counter, a second employee did finally arrive in the booth.) From the time I arrived at the booth to the moment I pulled out of the parking garage watt over one hour. The booth was just grossly understaffed to provide efficient service. I blame horrible management. Of course it was a Hertz booth, not a Thrifty booth. But if Thrifty is going to rely on Hertz to provide services to Thrifty's customers, Thrifty will have to accept responsibility for Hertz's awful service.

Most of the process was really good - easy pick up, pleasant staff, clean car, etc. BUT... the child car seats are totally mediocre and overpriced. Also, the text messages for 'check in', a few days/week ahead lead a person to think it's required (it's not). And thru that check in prompt, the company wants to get all your personal info AND your picture sent to them. Thrifty has forgotten about personal image and data privacy concerns and headed toward the 'big brother' way. Very disappointed by this aspect. Also very disappointed by the call center time. It's typical oversees information - totally unhelpful and language impaired. They basically repeat what can be found thru the web site and not able to offer more information. Blaagch!

We booked an intermediate SUV only to be dropped to a compact SUV at the counter and then told that we had no other options. :( It was very small for my family of 4 to utilize but we made it work. It was a very nice car, just very small.

I was promised a larger SUV and instead when I arrived since I wasn’t returning the vehicle to MSP (essentially ‘driving away’) I was informed that it was a very slim selection of vehicles that were eligible for rent. Hence I was given a Chevy Trax 😐

We booked through Kayak and accidently booked the car in our home town in Minneapolis. I was unable to get a refund from Kayak so I tried to get a refund from SIXT. Even thought the mistake was discovered minutes after the reservation was made I had to pay for 3 days of the rental just to cancel. Probably wont use Kayak or SIXT again. Should have been an easy correction from Kayak or SIXT instead cost me $145.00 for nothing. Booked my rental car through Hertz

It was hard to find both pick up and drop off locations. The air conditioning did not work. The temperatures were in the 90s and my phone kept overheating so I lost my map. When I stopped for the day, I called Budget. They would bring me a new vehicle but I would have to pay to have the current one towed even though someone would be there with the new vehicle. I was in a dangerous position and they were not helpful.

Employees arguing with each other. No cars were ready. 45min to check in with 4 people in line. First car smelled like human urine. 20min scramble to find another car. Staff does not really seem to want to help or interact with customers. Staff needed to be directed to check fuel on checkin. This location in particular is well known for charging refueling on full cars.

Initial Hertz rep didn't know what he was doing. Delayed our trip by 2 to 3 hours. Kayak, you have terrible customer service. There is no way to contact anyone. I will never EVER book anything through you ever again!!! Lesson learned by going through another party instead of just going directly through the actual company.

Ease of pick up and drop off. Please fill the tank with fuel. Not sure why I can't charge the rental company $10/ gallon when the tank isn't full but you an hit me if it's not full. It's not easy to return a vehicle the same when it's not full.

Extremely disappointing. Not very clear about picking up since there were three different areas at the airport to choose from. The agent at the first counter was rude and not helpful, and the other counter had a long line. It added a lot of additional time to go to a different area of the airport where the car actually was. The car pick up took about an additional hour. It was extremely frustrating to get ridiculous charges on the backend. The car was paid for, but additional fees were added on. Tax, auto facility charge, concession fee recovery etc. added it up to an additional $120! To me, this is padding. These charges should have been clear upfront. It was really infuriating. Definitely a deceptive practice to lure the consumer into thinking the fee they paid was the final price.
