KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Valdosta

  • There are many benefits of renting a car from car rentals in Valdosta when traveling to the city. You'll have the freedom to travel anywhere in and outside Valdosta without any limits like you might have with public transportation. You won't be on a predefined route or schedule, and you'll gain new driving experiences that will make your trip even more exciting. You don't even have to stick to the regular tourist traps in Valdosta because you can create a unique itinerary to new places that will not be crowded. Consider the flexibility of being able to go as close as Wild Adventures Theme Park for some water fun, about 9 miles away from town, or as far as Baps Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, one of the largest Hindu temples outside of India, about 83 miles away, at your own pace.
  • The car rental counter at Valdosta Regional Airport is located in the baggage claim area. There are several Valdosta car rentals where you can rent a car from the airport, some of them being Enterprise, Avis, Budget, and Hertz. Baggage claim is in the airport terminal, and to rent a car of your choice, you just need to follow the "Arrivals" and "Baggage Claim" signs and approach one of the counters with the rental agency of your choosing. The vehicles are located right outside the baggage claim, where you'll pick up your car and head to Valdosta. This is also the same location where you'll return the car once the trip is over.
  • When driving downtown, on Patterson Street, you'll find Valdosta State University. The students here jaywalk all the time, and you should minimize your driving speed to avoid any problems. You should also be watchful of pedestrians and yield to them at intersections. Be ready to share the road with cyclists too.
  • When driving in Valdosta, expect moderate traffic with minimal congestion in the city. However, if you intend to commute during rush hours, which span from 7am to 9am, and later on from 5pm to 7pm, it would be advisable to avoid Interstate 75. Traffic comes to a standstill if there's an accident. US Hwy 41 and 221 can also be backed up during rush hours, so allow yourself extra time or start before or after others.
  • Book your car hire in Valdosta at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Supplier choice hire cars in Valdosta are around 66% cheaper than other car types, on average

Could have been better. Mesage on dashboard said one tire was low -- personnel should have seen that. Had to go in and get them to put more air in! Car wasn't washed and the windshield was full of bugs. Had to clean it myself. Personnel thought it was my privilege to rent from Hertz -- not the other way around.

When I booked I told them that my flight was getting into Valdosta at 5PM. No one bothered to mention that Hertz closes at 5PM. By the time I got to their office it was about 5:20PM. They were closed. There was an employee still on the premises but he refused to help. We had to pay about $180 for a Lyft to take us to our hotel in Thomasville (an hours drive) and drive us back the next day for a pick up. I would definitely not recommend Hertz to anyone. It was beyond stressful and horrible.

Cons:

Price for the car was expensive! Horrible pick up and drop off customer service! The windshield wipers were a mess, it could've caused a wreck from not working properly! The tires did not have enough air! The tires were not snow tires in winter!!!

Pros:

That we finally got a car the next day, but not what we reserved and it cost more money.

Cons:

Our pickup time was 5pm, we did not know the location closed at 5 & we missed them. Had to take a taxi to our hotel & another taxi back to Hertz at 8am. They said our rented car was gone, but how could it be? We got their just after it closed & arrived just before it opened the next morning. They gave us a small car for more money. EXTREMELY disappointed and won't be renting from Hertz again.
