KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Georgetown

  • Renting cheap car rentals in Georgetown offers several advantages compared to alternative transportation options, making it a convenient choice for exploring the city and its surrounding areas. Georgetown is a city with a relatively spread-out layout, which can be challenging to navigate solely using public transportation. Therefore, using Georgetown car rentals can allow visitors to effortlessly reach different areas of the city, making it convenient to explore hidden gems or lesser-known attractions such as the Bourbon Trail, Buffalo Trace, Woodford Reserve, and Four Roses.
  • Lexington Blue Grass Airport (LEX) is the closest airport to Georgetown as it is approximately 14 miles away. The rental car offices at LEX are located in the baggage claim area. There is no shuttle service needed as it is a short walk to the rental car facility. Louisville Airport (SDF) is approximately 67 miles from Georgetown. The rental car offices at SDF are located on the lower level of the parking garage directly across from the terminal and there is a shuttle service available to the rental car pick-up area.
  • Visitors can expect driving cheap car rentals in Georgetown to be generally quite relaxed compared to larger cities. However, there are a few things to keep in mind when driving in the city. While the city is generally quiet, there are a few areas, such as downtown Georgetown, where pedestrians may be walking around. Be on the lookout for jaywalkers or pedestrians on crosswalks, as they have the right of way. In addition, Georgetown is considered a bike-friendly city, so it's not uncommon to encounter cyclists on the roads. Be sure to give bicycles ample space when passing and keep a safe distance.
  • Rush hour traffic is not usually a significant issue in Georgetown, but there may be some congestion during peak commute times around 7:00 am-9:00 am and 4:00 pm-6:00 pm, especially on the major roads leading to and from the city. Route 62 and Route 25 are two of the busiest roads in Georgetown and can be congested during peak times. During the winter, Georgetown does sometimes experience snow and ice storms, which can make driving conditions challenging. Additionally, the spring and summer months may bring heavy rain, which can create slippery roads and reduce visibility for drivers as they operate cheap car rentals in Georgetown.

FAQs about hiring a car in Georgetown

  • How can I find car hires near me in Georgetown?

    Take a look at our extensive car hire location map to find the best car hire deals near you.

  • How much does a Standard car hire cost in Georgetown?

    A Standard car hire in Georgetown costs R1 160 per day, on average.

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

    When it comes to choosing Georgetown car rentals, a compact or intermediate SUV with good ground clearance would be recommended.  SUVs tend to have higher ground clearance, which is great for navigating over speed bumps and uneven road surfaces without having to slow down significantly. They also offer more comfort compared to a sedan as there's usually more legroom, wider seats, and additional cargo space, making longer journeys more comfortable.

  • What’s the speed limit in Georgetown?

    The speed limit in Georgetown varies depending on the type of road and the zone in which it is located. On residential streets, the speed limit is generally 25 mph while in school zones, the speed limit is usually 20 mph during designated hours. In contrast, on major roads and highways within the city limits, the speed limit can range from 35 to 55 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park in Georgetown?

    In Georgetown, there are several options for parking, including free and paid parking. Free parking is available on many of the residential streets throughout the city, but these spots may require some walking to reach your destination. Paid parking is available in several areas of the city, including metered spots on Main Street and paid parking lots. Prices for metered parking typically range from $0.50 to $1.00 per hour, depending on the location. Some lots may charge a flat rate for parking, typically around $5-10 per day.

Pros:

The car drove well and was comfortable

Cons:

I never actually talked to anyone from Enterprise as both pick up and drop off were handled by a representative at another company's desk. If I had known that, I could have used Budget or some other company and paid a cheaper rate. The car was absolutely filthy. Lots of dirt and bugs on the front grill, animal hair in the luggage area and stains on the back seat. I had to give some authors a ride to a book launch party and was embarrassed by the condition of the car. Drop off was confusing since I had never used that airport and expected someone to be available in the lot to look at the car and take the keys. In the airport, I went to the only desk with an attendant to complete the rental process and told her about the filthy, unsanitary condition of the car. She was unconcerned. My first (and last) bad experience with Enterprise.

It would be better if I knew the credit card I used, hertz don’t take. There’s only certain credit cards hertz takes, so I didn’t get the experience the vehicle I rented through kayak.

Smooth transaction all around I didn’t fully grasp that the add on insurance offered was third party so you still have to provide your personal insurance provider at the counter.
