Car hire at Tel Aviv Ben Gurion Intl Airport

The majority of the car hire companies, at least the well-known ones, are located in the Eastern Gallery at Terminal 3 on the first level. Here, you'll find rental companies like Avis, Budget and Thrifty. All of these agencies offer a free shuttle service from Terminal 3 to the parking lot by the UPS building where you will collect your vehicle. If you're at Terminal 1, you'll need to call for a free shuttle service to take you to Terminal 3.

If you have a driving licence that's been issued in English, you generally won't need an international driving licence to hire a car at the airport. If you're from a country that drives on the opposite side of the road, we suggest confirming with the rental company beforehand. If you do need an international driving license, you must keep both the IDP and your home licence on you while driving.

Regardless of whether your flight departs from Terminal 1 or 3, your car hire will need to be returned to the Pardes parking lot on the ground floor of Terminal 3. If you're departing from Terminal 1, you can take the free shuttle service from the ground floor of Terminal 3, close to Gate 1.

To hire an automobile at the airport, you will need to produce a driving licence that's been valid for a year, at least. You will also have to provide proof of your identity, such as a passport or ID document, and a credit or debit card to pay for the rental.

On average a car hire at Tel Aviv Ben Gurion Airport costs R863 per day.

The only car hire company that offers shuttle or pick-up services from Tel Aviv Ben Gurion Airport to off-airport locations is Budget.
