KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in El Paso

  • Visitors to El Paso, whether they are there for business or pleasure, are highly advised to rent a car as they will find that there really is no other way of getting around town. Although there is a public bus and a trolley in the downtown area, the city is simply a car town. It can easily take upwards of an hour to get across town via bus when in a car it would be just a short drive.
  • Ready to get started on your trip to El Paso? Step one is likely to pick up your hire car. Travelers landing at El Paso International Airport will find the hire car counters located in the Arrivals Hall of the airport.
  • Red light cameras are legal in Texas and are found at many intersections in El Paso and across Texas. What this means for drivers is that, if you by go through a stale yellow light as it turns red -- or just roll through a red light -- you may be on the hook for a fine. This is because red light cameras take pictures of any drivers who fail to stop for a red light.
  • El Paso experiences its share of rush hour like many cities in the U.S. that rely upon private transportation. However, the congestion is not nearly as severe as it is in other major cities in Texas such as Dallas or Houston. El Paso’s rush hour runs primarily from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Mesa Street is one road to avoid during rush hour, though, as it can get quite bogged down.
  • Book your rental car in El Paso at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate rental cars in El Paso are around 47% more expensive than other car types, on average

FAQs about renting a car in El Paso

    Like any Texan city, El Paso is well suited for a wide range of vehicles due to the city’s large streets and wide avenues.

    For the most part, streetside parallel parking should suit your needs for most parts of El Paso; this includes the downtown area as well.

Tried to upsell me on additional insurance even though I purchased insurance coverage through KAYAK. Then tried to scare me by saying there was a possibility that I would still have to pay a high deductible since it was not purchased through Hertz. I would have preferred a walk around to notate minor damage all around vehicle. The agent walked away and sat behind desk. When I asked that he come see damage he said there was no need since pictures were already taken. When I asked how much gas was needed when vehicle was returned. I was told "whatever shows on the fuel gauge" is what you bring it back with. The fuel gauge was 95% full. No where notated that I could see. I feel the service mediocre at best. The car itself worked fine. I was greatfull to find a car last minute for a long distance trip. You would not find any cars available through Herts website. Kayak came through and found one for me.

Didn’t like anything and actually walked out once they said we’d have to put. $500 security deposit on a rental that wasn’t even what we reserved and paid for already. Will be using their competition from now on

Easy pick up...didnt like the 300 dollar deposit...even using an actual credit card. Still pricey...easy drop off... Car was clean...no issues...everything worked. Probably would rent again...would DEFINITELY rent again if prices were lower. Gas prices are high enough already...and it's not like the rental companies pay for the gas...we as renters pay for it.

It was confusing to check in because we waited at the Alamo desk for awhile. We didn’t see anyone and finally asked an employee and they told us to go up to the garage. They said all the cars were owned by the same people but we were delayed in waiting to be helped. Overall the staff was friendly, the car was clean and it was easy to return.

The vehicle was perfect for our trip.

Cons:

Let customers know they must have a major credit card to rent a vehicle. The first representative that I spoke to when I went to pick up the rental was very rude, did not help. He was very sarcastic which was very upsetting because at that moment I thought my air b&b had been paid for I did panic and your representative did nothing to help again was extremely rude. I finally was able to get my brother to go to the airport drove from the west side to help me rent the car your second representative was extremely nice, helpful and professional I wished I would have gotten both their names.

We ordered an SUV (and paid the price of a SUV) but we’re told they didn’t have any available and we’re provided a sedan. They didn’t reduce the price to match renting a sedan. The car they gave us was damaged and smelt awful. It was obvious people had been smoking in the car.
