Discount Orlando Car Rentals

The best way to get around the sprawling Orlando area is by an Orlando rental car. Just about every national rental car chain operates here, along with some smaller ones. Orlando rental agencies are accustomed to tourists renting a car in one Florida city and dropping it off here or vice versa, although they charge an additional fee to do so. Get as current of a map as you can find. Roads are being built even as you read this, and highway signs often assume you know much more than you do. Because Central Florida was once sparsely populated and there are vast amounts of acreage up this way, there was plenty of room to build roads for all of the people driving an Orlando rental car, so even the most remote routes are four- or six-lane highways.

You will also need to allow more travel time than the distance would suggest when driving around Orlando. Even central Florida's main interstate artery, I-4, is slow at peak traffic hours from 7a-9a and from 4p-6p, and very busy at almost any other time.

Every major commercial airline and many charter aircraft fly into burgeoning Orlando International Airport or the much smaller Sanford International Airport and all of them have free transportation to various Orlando rental car agencies. Amtrak trains connect the city with cities along the U.S. east coast with stops in Kissimmee, Winter Park and Orlando, while Amtrak's Auto Train boards both passengers and their cars for the trip between Lorton, Virginia near Washington D.C. to Sanford, a small town just north of Orlando. Greyhound buses bring people here from every corner of the nation.
