KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Savannah
- The charming port city of Savannah, Georgia is easy to navigate, which means a hire car is the quickest, most comfortable, and most efficient way to move around at your own pace. A car also allows you to embark on road trips throughout Georgia and even across the state border — drive along the coast all the way to Charleston, which is a two-hour drive, or head to vibrant Atlanta, which is less than 4 hours away.
- All the major car hire agencies, including Alamo, Enterprise, and Hertz, can be found at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport (SAV), which is about 10 miles northwest of the city center. All the hire car offices are located near the baggage claim area, which is on ground floor of the main terminal building. If you're visiting during a busy holiday period, book your car in advance.
- Driving through the city of Savannah is relatively easy, especially when compared to other big cities such as Atlanta, and traffic rules in the city are very straightforward. Driving in the winter months may be the trickiest part, so make sure that you keep plenty of distance between your vehicle and other people's.
- Although traffic congestion isn't a big problem in Savannah, driving during rush hour can easily add extra time to your travels. Avoid driving into the city or to the airport between 6:30 and 9:30 a.m., or leaving the city between 4 and 7 p.m. Roads that experience more traffic jams include GA Highway 21, US 80, US 17, and the I-16.
- Book your rental car in Savannah at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Off-airport rental car locations in Savannah are around 13% cheaper than airport locations on average
- Compact rental cars in Savannah are around 27% cheaper than other car types, on average

Pros:
The staff at the White Bluff Savannah location is AMAZING!!! None of my review marks have anything to do with them. In fact I would tell everyone to go to them if they need a rental in Low Country because they are fantastic!!!Cons:
Fist off, I booked for an airport pick up and drop off, what I got was a 50 dollar taxi ride 30 minutes away. Second, my information was never passed onto the rental location. They had no way of getting a hold of me. Complete garbage. So naturally, there were no vehicles available, even though I booked a solid month out.Hertz

Pros:
NO. I found out two days before my rental began that the location will be closed until December. I did't received an email or courtesy call prior to 130 mile trip to Savannah.8.0 Very Good
Anonymous, May 2021
Pros:
Staff at the counter not overly friendly, and there was confusion about what car we rented and needed as their current inventory was very low. We ended up getting a vehicle that worked, but it was different from what we booked. Returning the car was quick and easy, and the car itself was very nice.2.0 Poor

Pros:
Nothing. The place was temporarily closed. Even though I was sent a reminder email the day before.. Called Priceline to inform them and was told they apologize that their system was not updated. The only thing they could offer me was to cancel without penalty. I was set to travel out of town. Will never use againCons:

The day after booking the car rental on kayak, the hertz location called and said they actually didn't have any cars available. So, it was back to square one with lost time.Avis

I was originally given a pick up truck. I knew it was a busy weekend and they were likely sold out of cars. I explained I would be shuttling my mom around and it would be difficult for her to get in the truck. They took the time to clean a returned car. It was so appreciated! Thanks6.0 Okay

Pros:
The Payless counter in Savannah is closed. A sign directed me to the Budget Rental Car counter which had a long line and only 2 agents. There were people standing around for hours waiting for a car to become available. We got lucky and didn't have to wait once we finally checked in, but the car we got was not cleaned. At that point, we had been in line for an hour, so we went ahead and took the dirty car. It smelled like sour milk, but at least it was the size we reserved and otherwise was issue-free.Cons:
More rental cars are definitely needed in Savannah!!7.6 Good
Anonymous, Jul 2020
Cons:
Payless does not have any employees working at the Savannah airport location. You have to go to Budget/Avis. Then they walk you all the way back to the Payless counter where they have to manually fill out paperwork because computers do not come up properly and the printer is broken. The employee that helped me was fantastic. Had she not been this extra time spent and nonsense would have been a terrible experience. There is no one to check cars back in for Avis/Budget or Payless. For Avis and Budget you can fill out mileage and put it in the box but for Payless you have to go back to Avis and budget wait in line and give them the key and paperwork. They should just add a Payless box. Had that line been longer I could have easily waited 20-30 min just to hand that to someone. The process is not well thought out.2.0 Poor

Cons:
They did not have one single car available but still booked my $450 reservation turning me away from the rental counter after three tries. No upgrades, just said they had no cars and there weren’t going to be any no matter how long I waited.4.0 Mediocre
