KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in North Miami
Car rentals in North Miami are cheaper and more convenient when you travel outside the limits covered by public transport. Most of the scenic routes and best places to visit are often not well-covered by public transport. Furthermore, public transportation might be unavailable on weekends meaning you are restricted to weekdays for exploring North Miami. If you love nature, you will love driving to the Oleta River State Park. With a rental car, you can arrive very early because the park stops admitting guests when it reaches its maximum capacity.
Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) and Miami International Airport (MIA) are the two main airports serving travelers to North Miami. You will get to the consolidated rental facility in Fort Lauderdale Airport using a shuttle bus that picks passengers from Terminals 2, 3 and 4 outside the baggage claim level every five minutes. Passengers using Terminal 1 will cross the pedestrian bridge on the second level to get to the car rental facility. The rental car center at Miami International Airport is on the third level between Flamingo and Dolphin garages. Advantage, Alamo, Ace, Enterprise, Budget, Dollar Hertz and Avis are some rental car agencies in both airports.
The roads in Miami are well-maintained and paved, but you will encounter some drivers who love changing lanes without switching on their turn signals. It is also common for cars to swerve across several traffic lanes without warning. As such, when driving on North Miami streets, be vigilant to spot these reckless behaviors and react appropriately. Locals often speed through yellow lights instead of slowing down. Therefore, do not brake when the light turns yellow to avoid being rear-ended.
North Miami experiences traffic jams during rush hours from 7 am to 9 am and 3 pm to 7 pm. You can customize your rental car with GPS navigation to get the routes without traffic or travel outside these hours. When using toll roads, some drivers will careen across the plastic barriers. Avoid this because it is illegal and dangerous. Drivers in North Miami sometimes honk their horns for no reason, so do not be alarmed.

The vehicle I reserved was not available. In fact they had NO cars available for me to rent. I spent $40 to get an uber to the rental location and I had to spend another $40 to get back to my hotel without a rental car. So disappointed.

Terrible. They did not have ANY cars available nor did they offer to help find a car for me despite my reservations made 4 months prior. Christmas Eve and they left me in a major jam with ZERO options and their customer service was absolutely awful.
