Car rental near Port of Miami?

[Arctic Ace]

We would like to rent a car after arriving back to Miami from cruise but we don't know where should we rent it...

 

We noticed that at least Hetz is offering pick up to rental place. Do you know where the pick up and drop of location is? Is this reliable service + have you used this one?

 

What is your recommendation?

Hertz offers free shuttle service to their downtown location, but are regularly overwhelmed by cruise customers. :( Avis & Budget are also downtown, but no shuttles - taxi will run about $12+

 

National, Alamo & Thrifty offer free shuttle service to their MIA airport location - bring a printed copy of your reservation form to show the driver or you will not get on the shuttle. The ride to MIA takes 15+minutes.

Hey John,

Do they shuttle you to the port for free if you do drop off at the airport?

National, Alamo & Thrifty offer free shuttle service from their MIA airport location to POM.

All the major rental companies (Avis, Budget, National, Enterprise, Alamo, Dollar/Thrifty, Hertz) do free shuttles TO and FROM the Miami airport to the cruise port if you are renting from them. As JohninDC said, bring your confirmation page, although they have never asked me to see it.

 

Call the other agencies (Fox, Sixt, Firefly, Advantage, etc.) to see if they offer free shuttle. Most do as they are actually owned by the bigger agencies.
