There is a big, uncovered parking lot available right outside of Tancredo Neves International Airport. However, the lot is subcontracted, so the operator can set its own prices, which the airport does not advertise or control. The airport merely states that the prices are in line with the local market. However, rates should be approximately R$4 for the first hour, with a day rate of R$30 for the first day.

Belo Horizonte Airport Ground Transportation

You can also rent a car at the airports from car rental companies such Avis, Budget, Hertz, Localiza and Unidas.
