Why rent a car in Mexico City?

Renting a car in Mexico City offers unparalleled flexibility to explore the city's diverse neighborhoods, from the historic center to the vibrant districts of Coyoacán and Polanco. With your own vehicle, you can conveniently visit iconic landmarks, bustling markets, and hidden gems at your own pace.

Beyond the city limits, a rental car allows you to embark on day trips to nearby attractions such as the ancient city of Teotihuacán, the charming town of Puebla, or the scenic landscapes of the surrounding mountains and valleys. Having a car provides the freedom to discover the rich cultural and natural heritage of the region without the constraints of public transportation schedules.

Car rental tips for Mexico City

  • Mexico City International Airport hosts several car rental agencies conveniently located within the terminal, allowing travelers to pick up their vehicles shortly after arrival. It's advisable to reserve your car in advance to ensure availability and expedite the rental process.
  • Traffic congestion is common in Mexico City, particularly during peak hours from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Plan your travel times accordingly to avoid delays, and consider using navigation apps to find the most efficient routes.
  • Be aware of the 'Hoy No Circula' program, which restricts vehicle circulation based on license plate numbers to reduce pollution. Ensure your rental car complies with these regulations to avoid fines; rental agencies can provide information on this program.
  • When driving in Mexico City, be vigilant for pedestrians and cyclists, especially in busy neighborhoods and near markets. Always yield to pedestrians at crosswalks and exercise caution at intersections to ensure safety for all road users.
