KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Wasilla

  • Discover the freedom of exploring Wasilla with a rental car. Opting for car rentals in Wasilla gives you the advantage of flexible travel, enabling easy access to nearby gems like the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race Headquarters and the Alaska Museum of Transportation. While public transportation options are limited, having your own Wasilla car rental lets you reach off-the-beaten-path destinations like Hatcher Pass. Enjoy the convenience and make the most of your visit with a car rental in Wasilla.
  • Wasilla is primarily served by the Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC), which is the nearest major airport to the city. It's located in Anchorage, approximately 45 miles south of Wasilla. Streamline your journey by booking a car rental in Wasilla in advance from one of the ANC car rental offices. The rental car facilities are conveniently situated in the rental car center, which is a separate building, located adjacent to the South Terminal. To access the rental car center from the terminals, you can use the shuttle buses that run between the terminals and the rental car center. You can also take a short walk from baggage claim to the rental counters.
  • Navigating Wasilla by car is generally smooth, but be cautious of wildlife crossings, especially during dawn and dusk. Moose and other animals can unexpectedly appear on roads. Stay vigilant and adhere to speed limits. Remember, the weather can change rapidly, affecting road conditions, so keep an eye on forecasts before heading out. Enjoy your driving experience with a car rental in Wasilla and embrace the unique charm of Alaskan roads while exploring this picturesque city.
  • Prepare for challenging driving conditions during winter in Wasilla. Snow and ice can make roads slippery, so drive cautiously and consider getting a car rental in Wasilla that's equipped for winter conditions. Rush hour typically occurs between 7-9 am and 4-6 pm on major roads like the Parks Highway and Knik-Goose Bay Road. During heavy snowfall, roads can become treacherous, especially on inclined routes like the Glenn Highway. Plan your travel wisely, stay updated on weather forecasts, and ensure your Wasilla car rental is winter-ready to navigate safely.
  • Book your car hire in Wasilla at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Cons:

They gave away our car. We got a deal through Kayak. I guess they did not want to honor the deal so they rented our car to someone else for twice the price. As a result I would never use Enterprise car rental or Kayak again!

Pros:

Several employees at counter carried in personal conversations using curse words (unprofessional). First car had a flat tire, second car did not have full tank of gas. Enterprise off airport where I was suppose to pick up car had already closed so got car at airport. Was never informed the rate would be 300 plus dollars more per month.

Cons:

With regards to reservation, should have been j formed I could turn car in next day and pick up original car offsite which was substantially lower in cost.

Cons:

Enterprise switched the pickup location due to location construction but failed to notify me. I reserved a drop off location (anchorage airport) different than the pickup location but the lady at the pickup location then tried to charge me extra (over and above my reservation amount) to drop off at the airport which was shown on my reservation.. I ignored her "upcharge threats" and dropped off per my reservation details anyway. I will not rent from Enterprise in Anchorage again, it was not a pleasant experience

We made a reservation with Dollar in Anchorage, AK expecting to be able to get to the rental location from the airport. The airport had a dollar rental car desk but was not where our reservation was. There was no shuttle to the other location and we were told the other location did not open until 8 a.m. our flight had been changed by the airline to leave at 8 a.m. this meaning we had to be at the airport by 6 a.m. Leaving no option but to use the airport location. They would not match the price we were quoted. The rental ended up costing us $800 MORE than we expected. Will not be using Dollar again.

Pros:

Nothing stood out as being noticeably good. They were short staffed which had the one front desk worker a little stressed. He wasn't the friendliest, but then again neither am I when I'm stressed. Be sure to read the fine print before booking. There's a $500 mandatory hold if you use a debit card to pay. Also, there's a charge per day for additional drivers. If you're from out of state, they require to see your plane tickets confirming your return flight. And if you do not take their insurance option, you have to show them proof of your own personal car insurance and it has to be full coverage. Also, don't be like me and not check to see if this location is at the airport before booking. This location is not the one at the airport and it'll be about a $15 cab/uber ride to get there.

It took longer than expected to actually get the rental car. When I went out to inspect it before leaving, it was not clean. It made it difficult to mark the damages already done because it was dirty. The inside was vacuumed.
