Why rent a car in Lima?

Renting a car in Lima offers unparalleled flexibility to explore the city's diverse neighbourhoods, from the historic centre to the coastal districts, at your own pace. It also provides the convenience to venture beyond the city limits to nearby attractions without the constraints of public transportation schedules.

Car rental tips for Lima

  • Lima's traffic can be congested, particularly during peak hours (7-9 AM and 5-8 PM). Plan your driving times accordingly to avoid delays, and consider using navigation apps to find the most efficient routes.
  • Be aware of toll roads when travelling outside Lima. Have local currency (Peruvian soles) on hand to pay for tolls, as not all booths accept credit cards. It's also advisable to enquire with the rental company about any toll transponders available for the vehicle.
  • If you're not accustomed to aggressive driving styles, Lima's traffic may be challenging. Defensive driving is essential, and it's recommended to familiarise yourself with local driving customs and regulations before hitting the road.
  • During the rainy season (November to March), road conditions can deteriorate, especially in coastal and mountainous areas. Exercise caution, check weather forecasts regularly, and avoid driving during heavy rains or potential flash floods.

FAQs about renting a car in Lima

What is the recommended car type/category?

Parking in Lima varies by district. In areas like Miraflores and Barranco, paid parking lots and garages are available, while street parking can be limited. Always check for parking signs and fees, and consider using secure parking facilities, especially during the evening.
