Top tips for hiring a car from Alamo in Tampa

  • Book Alamo car rentals in Tampa, Florida, and see the sunshine state at the right pace for you. Known for being lively, vibrant and filled with history, this warm coastal city has many interesting offerings, from the Cuban historic old town of Ybor City, to the Busch Gardens theme park, Florida Aquarium and much more, The ‘Big Guava’ as Tampa is known, is also an excellent dining destination, with the Latino influence spilling into much of the culinary experiences. With gorgeous, sandy beaches, warm Gulf Coast waters and a thriving nightlife, you may be forgiven for thinking Tampa has it all. However, if you feel like taking a road trip, look to Ford Lauderdale or Panama City for other Florida cities that know how to throw a party.
  • When you arrive in Florida you will have two branches of Alamo. If you have flown into the city, you will find the main branch at Tampa Airport. When you book Alamo car rentals in Tampa, this is an ideal pick-up location as it is open 24 hours a day. You will need to take the Rental Car SkyConnect train from the airport and will find it on Airport Service Road. Alternatively, downtown Tampa has a branch on North Nebraska Avenue. This branch trades from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm during the week, 11:00 am to 2:00 pm on Saturdays and is closed on Sundays.

I liked that there was a representative asking questions about our rentals as we exited the building to the parking lot. She looked at our paperwork and pointed at the cars that worked for the rental. We were free to choose what we liked. It turned out my options were large SUV and I asked the lady if I could have something smaller and it wasn’t a problem. I loved that! I chose a GMC and enjoyed the car immensely.Reviewed Jul 27 2026

Well, your confirmation of my rental really wasn’t. The car I rented and confirmed was not there. The agent at the counter was nice but hard to understand. There was no convertible there. He said they never have them. So I was given a Toyota Camry as my only option. No one showed me anything about the car and didn’t walk outside to look at it or help w luggage. Location was also sketchy. Will never be renting from you or Alamo again.Reviewed May 4 2025

Had a great experience. Checking in at the airport to collect our car was fast and seamless (plenty of cars were available to choose from) and there was no haggling or change in my rate. The drop off process was also seamless. We were unloaded and had a final receipt within minutes. Would definitely rent from them again!Reviewed May 1 2024
