KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Waldorf

  • Car rental in Waldorf is the most popular way for tourists to get around the city and the surrounding regions. Public transportation is also an option, but in this area, you’re more likely to be spending more time waiting for buses than travelling between A and B. In your rental car, you can alleviate the waiting times and travel around with more freedom, especially when reaching places such as Washington D.C. which is only around 50min by car. There’s also Annapolis, MD, which is the capital of the state and takes 1 hour to drive to. Alexandria, VA is another nice day trip, and only 35 minutes away.
  • If you’re looking to organise car rental in Waldorf, arranging everything from Washington Reagan National Airport (DCA) is your best option, with an extensive range of vehicles from seven different major car rental companies. You can locate the car rental desks on first floor of Parking 1, from the terminal building you can grab a shuttle bus outside Terminals 1 & 2 (Curbside 2). If you have selected Budget or Avis as your provider, the offices are off site, and they both have dedicated shuttle buses at Curbside 3.
  • If you’re looking at Waldorf car hire, it’s worth noting that you need to have a valid Indian driving licence and an International Driving Permit (IDP) issued by the Indian authorities. The IDP is usually required for tourists from India to drive legally in the USA. In the USA, including Maryland, driving is on the right-hand side of the road. If you're travelling with kids, they need to be seated in a secure child seat, this is required by law. In Maryland, the legal blood alcohol content limit is 0.08%. It's best to avoid alcohol entirely if you plan to drive.
  • As you plan your drives in Waldorf, be mindful of the morning (7:00-9:00) and evening (16:00-19:00) rush hour traffic and try to avoid major roads during these times. Some roads you should try to avoid include Route 301, also known as Crain Highway, which can become backlogged with commuter traffic, much like Smallwood Drive and St. Patrick’s Drive, which are both important roads and experience congestion during rush hour. While on the school run, Berry Road and Acton Lane can get busy, as they both connect schools and residential areas.
  • Medium hire cars in Waldorf are around 47% cheaper than other car types, on average
