KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Puerto Rico

  • It is highly recommended that visitors of Puerto Rico rent a vehicle during their time on the island. First off, having a hire vehicle makes getting from Gran Canaria Airport to Puerto Rico - a drive of 47 kilometers (29 miles) - an absolute breeze. Second and most importantly, renting your own vehicle is much cheaper than paying for tour buses to take you across the island everytime you want to head out of town to sites such as the Caldera de Los Marteles (56 kilometers or 36 miles away).
  • Visitors arriving at Gran Canaria Airport who wish to pick up a hire car after landing will find the hire car counters located in the airport’s Arrivals Terminal.
  • Due to it being a resort town, Puerto Rico has numerous pedestrians on its streets. It is very common to see jaywalkers, particularly during the afternoon and evening hours, in the busier parts of town. Visitors should make sure to drive carefully and be cautious of any would-be jaywalkers.
  • Though most of the traffic in Puerto Rico is made up of holidaying pedestrians, there is the occasional rush hour traffic during the peak hours of the week. The usual morning rush hour lasts from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m., while the afternoon rush hour starts up at around 4:00 p.m. and finishes up by around 6:00 p.m. or 7:00 p.m. In terms of roads to avoid during rush hour, GC-500 is one of the main culprits that drivers should avoid during peak hours.
  • Medium hire cars in Puerto Rico are around 78% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about hiring a car in Puerto Rico

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Puerto Rico?

    Vehicles such as sedans, coupes, compacts, and even convertibles are all highly recommended to visitors looking to rent a car during their time in Puerto Rico. This is because many of the city streets are relatively narrow, and this also applies to many of the roads throughout the rest of the island as well. Parking is also something to take into consideration in the city; many of the on-street parking spots are on the smaller side and large vehicles may struggle to fit in them.
