KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Amarillo

  • Since it’s not a large city with an extensive public transportation system, it’s recommended to explore Amarillo with the convenience of a personal car. If you can’t bring your own, consider renting one from car rentals in Amarillo. Most of the cars have updated maps to help you easily navigate the city and its surroundings without having to worry about getting lost. You can explore destinations such as Cadillac Ranch, 10 miles south of Amarillo, then find your way to Paro Duro Canyon State Park, 26 miles from Amarillo.
  • Once you arrive at the Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport, you can choose your car from the car rental facility located within the airport. You can easily find the rental car counter in the baggage claim area and the car will be parked right outside the baggage claim. Some of these rental companies include Avis, National, and Enterprise. You may find it easier to book your car through KAYAK and have it waiting for you at the airport terminal.
  • One important thing you should be wary of when driving in Amarillo is cell phone prohibition. It’s largely prohibited in Texas, so be careful if you plan to venture out and enjoy the attractions the state has to offer. Still, you may use a hands-free feature such as Bluetooth, speakerphone, or a voice-activated device.
  • There is little to no traffic in Amarillo, making the locals refer to their rush-hour as "rush minute" instead. This is mostly between 7am and 8am. Ross-Mirror Street, Washington Street, and Georgia Street are among the busiest roads in Amarillo. Only a few Downtown Amarillo streets are slightly tricky to navigate, as they are one-way streets. However, this is no different from most towns, so if you’re careful, you’ll be okay.
  • Book your car hire in Amarillo at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact hire cars in Amarillo are around 59% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about hiring a car in Amarillo

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Amarillo?

    The summers in Amarillo are clear and hot, while the winters are windy, dry, and partly cold. Whatever season you arrive in Amarillo, renting a standard-sized car from car rentals in Amarillo would be ideal. It will help you navigate the roads in and outside the city as you travel to various destinations. A standard-sized car is comfortable, and you’ll have adequate space to stretch or pack any cargo, like hiking or camping gear. If you’re traveling with more than four people, you can rent a roomy SUV.

  • What’s the speed limit in Amarillo?

    When you pick your car up from Amarillo car rentals, keep in mind that the maximum speed is set at 70mph by the law. However, 75mph is allowed on highways, and you can expect to drive at a speed limit of 15mph in alleys. When you drive through residential areas in your rental car, remember to keep the limit at 30mph and even lower in school zones, which is 20mph from 7am-4pm.

  • Where are the best places to park in Amarillo?

    There are numerous parking spots available to the public in Downtown Amarillo, which are free after 5pm daily. The city has a digital payment and meter system that enables users to pay for parking using their smartphones. Once you download the app, you can pay for street parking for approximately $1 per hour.

Even better, you will have the ability to expand that time before it expires conveniently from your phone.

I wish I could Rent the car at the airport and pick it up downtown, even we had a reservation we couldn't, i ws trying to get the car at 8;00am at the Airport instead of the downtown officce that open at 8:30, I had to get to Amarillo airport by taxi ; your representative wasn't willing to help by the way she arrive at least 20 minutes late to Entreprise counter, we had to move to downtown office and start the whole process instead of just get there and pick it up , lady at amarillo downtown office was very attentive and kind.

Pros:

Great quick friendly check in despite the computer being down.

Cons:

The car smelt like cigarettes. Leaving the airport on the chip seal road the car was very loud but I assumed it was just as it was a new road so the small pebbles we're making the noise. ~20 minutes later when I got on the highway the car was making a sound like the wheel was going to fall off or something. I pulled over and verified the wheels were all tight and assumed it was a pebble from the road stuck behind the brake shield and was too far from the airport to make it to my destination in time. The noise came and went depending on speed and eventually turned into a very loud dragging noise. I pulled over and looked under the car to find a splash shield was dragging under it. I was able to tear it off and all noises were gone. Can't believe Avis let the car leave this way, I am glad I am a mechanically inclined person to find and resolve this issue.

I booked VW Jetta but I was given Chrysler. I asked why and I was told they did have Jetta and online booking don’t what’s on stock, I did buy that answer. But I paid for a specific vehicle I never got to enjoy. I don’t think Chrysler was worth the same so maybe I should get credit back.

Pros:

The staff was very rude and blunt. I called to let them know I was going to be a little late picking up the vehicle and the had asked about it and was told they didn’t have the vehicle we had booked for instead gave us something bigger (not what we wanted). Representative was like we don’t have any other vehicle available and was asked if we wanted to cancel the reservation she didn’t even wait for a response and just walked away from us. We were not happy. Representative just walked into the office.We still kept the reservation but the customer service was very rude and we didn’t feel like they wanted us as customers.

Cons:

Better customer services!!! I been there twice and same interaction. Thought that the second time would be different. Staff need to train more on customer service. If this keep up they’re going to lose customers.
