Top tips for hiring a car at Montevideo Carrasco airport
- Car hire at Montevideo Carrasco Airport (MVD) has many advantages for the traveller. At around 12 miles from downtown Montevideo, you can almost half your transit time to the city if you drive, as opposed to using public transport, with a journey time of around 30min. You will also benefit from the comfort of your own vehicle, without having to battle with your luggage on crowded buses or trains if you arrive at a busy time. The freedom to explore Montevideo and Uruguay’s surrounding coastline will be yours to enjoy at your own pace and you can reach more remote locations.
- Expect to find well-maintained roads and good connections from Montevideo Airport and the surrounding regions. Toll booths are common on busier routes. The airport is located just off Route 101, and you can exit via the Rambla to Avenida De Las Americas to take you on to the route, which will then follow along the coastal road to the city centre. You may want to consider a 4x4 vehicle for more difficult terrain in local areas further afield as you may experience more dirt tracks and the occasional river crossing to traverse.
- If you have a wait at Montevideo Airport, you can make use of the services in the Arrivals Hall whilst you await your car hire. Bars and restaurants are available for refreshments, and you can also find various shops and ATM facilities, as well as luggage storage facilities.
- Be aware of petrol station opening times in Uruguay as most tend to fall in-between the hours of 06:00 and 20:00, although you can find 24h outlets in the major cities and on the highways if you are looking to re-fill your tank on your return. Also, bear in mind, that headlights are a requirement during the days, as well as at night times when driving in Uruguay and should be kept on dipped during the daylight hours.
- Book your car hire at Montevideo Carrasco airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Jan 2018
Pros:
Didn't like much other than the price.Cons:
Thought I was getting a deal for the CSR and the money, but then they pulled up for me a Renault Logan, and had an Avis sticker on it vs Budget. That said it was as basic a car as I have seen in a long time. The price was cheap given the week and peak demand. But, it was in poor condition, barely made it up hills, had a notchy clutch, no windshield wiper fluid, and the trunk seal came off upon trying to remove my first piece of luggage. Rental was around 360 for 8-9 days which was quite good, as I was not willing to pay 12-1500+ for a few other rentals, but I would gladly have paid 2-300 more for something better....but was told there were no other options. In general, worst car rental and experience I have ever had9,6 Wonderful

Cons:
There wasn't anyone at the to arrange a shuttle or anything. Worst of all, when I manage to make an international call from Uruguay to US from my cell, the company representative was completely useless and offered me to call a local number and deal with it myself ;( Ended up getting a car from Europ2,0 Poor
Mar 2017
Cons:
I bought the insurance I was offered during the booking process. Since I had that covered, I asked Thrifty NOT to add any insurance on the contract. Since they don't trust any other insurance policy "other than the ones they sell", they request that I provide a credit card where they can BLOCK 7,500 USD (That is seven thousand five hundred dollars!) UN-BELIEVABLE!6,0 Okay

Pros:
nothing!! I did not rent it because my credit card was to new for them!! They also required to hold of $1,600.00 in case of something happened to the card when other companies required just $ 800.00 for better cards. Their office is located outside the airport they give you a ride to take the car but this take extra time. THEY NEED TO UPDATE THEIR SISTEM TO WORK WITH CREDIT CARDS.7,6 Good
