KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Nassau
- What better way to feel the freedom of island life than in the air conditioned comfort of your own car and not stuck waiting for public transport with busy packs of locals and tourists. Car hire in Nassau is your obvious choice if you want to have the independence to travel wherever you want, when you want, and also do some further exploring to less touristy spots in your own wheels.
- Car hire in Nassau is made simple if you collect your car when you arrive at the main airport of Lynden Pindling International. There are a select amount of major car companies operating from the airport like Avis, Hertz, Virgo and more. Rather choose your preferred car before you arrive so you are guaranteed the car you want. You can collect your car right at the airport and make your way out to an island paradise.
- Island driving is quite relaxed and the roads are well maintained. Make sure you brush up on the basic road rules and check speed limits. If you want to drive further on the outskirts of the island there are well kept major roads for you to get to your next destination. Although driving on an island is not like driving in a major city, you still need to exercise caution in a new city with strange roads and be aware of the locals who sometimes have their own local road rules.

As long as you are aware that people might make a move that is not indicated and you drive with caution, you should have no real issues. Small island roads can get busy so try and avoid obvious congestions near to popular tourist destinations at peak hours.

Pros:
The car got amazing miles per gallon and was simple to operate.Cons:
The ad said the rental office was at the port when in fact it was 6 blocks away and there were no directions in the ad how to get there.2,0 Poor
Jul 2021
Cons:
Their offices were closed in spite of us having a pickup scheduled. They then made us taxi all the way out to the airport to pick up our car from a different location after we were finally able to reach them. Called maybe 10-15 times on the day of our reservation and only got through once to finally get our car 6 hours after our initial reservation startedFlexWays
