KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Hollister

  • Hollister car rentals offer several advantages, including the fact that rental cars are often in much better shape than your car or other transport options would be. Car rentals in Hollister have lower mileage, meaning they are less prone to mechanical issues, which adds to the overall comfort and peace of mind while you enjoy your trip. With a well-maintained rental car, you can confidently and conveniently explorepopular attractions in Hollister like Pinnacles National Park and San Juan Bautista State Historical Park.
  • When flying into San Francisco Airport (SFO) for your visit in Hollister, you can use car rentals in Hollister to navigate and enjoy the area. The rental car offices at SFO are in a centralized area known as the Rental Car Center (RCC). To get there, you can take the AirTrain Blue Line, a free automated people mover system that connects all airport terminals to the RCC.

  • Driving car rentals in Hollister can be an enjoyable experience. The roads are well-maintained, allowing for smooth and comfortable driving. However, it would be best to be cautious of pedestrians, particularly in busy downtown areas and nearby schools. Speed limits are marked and should be adhered to at all times.

Similarly, seasonal factors like increased tourism or adverse weather conditions can further impact traffic flow. During the winter months (December to February), occasional rainfall can lead to slick roads and reduced visibility, hence difficult driving.

Nothing

Cons:

Kayak reserved my car at Salinas Airport from Saturday to the following Saturday. Come to find out right before I am to pick up the car that location is not open weekends. Nobody bothered to tell me that they where not open. I had to scramble and find another car. Luckily Avis in Santa Cruz was able to bail me out.
