KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Oxford
- Using car rentals in Oxford offers unparalleled convenience and flexibility. With a rental car, you can effortlessly explore the city and its surroundings at your own pace without relying on public transportation schedules. This is particularly advantageous for visiting nearby attractions, grocery shopping, or navigating less accessible areas. The comfort and privacy of a rental car make it a superior option to relying solely on alternative transport, enhancing your overall travel experience in and around Oxford. With Oxford car rentals, you can visit areas like Hueston Woods State Park, the charming historical district of nearby Hamilton, and the Miami University Art Museum.
- When you visit Oxford, you'll likely land at Cinci./N. Kentucky Airport (CVG) or LUK Cincinnati Muni Airport (LUK). LUK's car rental facility is located within the airport terminal near the baggage claim area. The rental counters at CVG are situated adjacent to Ground Transport West, seamlessly connected to the terminal structure. This location can be found at 3057 Terminal Drive, and there's no requirement for a shuttle to reach the counters from the baggage claim level. When you leave the baggage claim section, you'll notice the rental car center entrance on the right-hand side.
- Driving car rentals in Oxford generally reflects a calm and considerate demeanor among locals. The atmosphere is relaxed, with drivers tending to respect traffic rules. Bicycles are common due to the city's pedestrian-friendly layout and the presence of Miami University. While trucks are present due to the university's activities and local commerce, they don't dominate the roads. Pedestrians, including university students, are prevalent but generally adhere to crosswalks. Common vehicles include sedans, SUVs, and smaller trucks, contributing to a well-balanced traffic mix.
