KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Puebla City
- The city of Puebla, Mexico, is a great destination to explore with a rental car. Some of its biggest points of interest, including the colonial-style architecture of the Zócalo area downtown, are easily reachable by car. With your own vehicle, you can drive to the nearby town of Cholula, where you’ll be able to see the Grand Pyramid built in the second century B.C.
- You’ll find that most of the major rental car agencies operate at Puebla International Airport (PBC), officially known as Hermanos Serdán International Airport. The airport is located about 12 miles from downtown Puebla. The car rental desks are situated in the Arrivals Hall of the airport’s terminal. You’ll need an International Driving Permit to rent a car in Mexico, as well as insurance.
- The city of Puebla is fairly easy to navigate, but it’s always best to have a GPS with you. However, keep an eye out for one-way streets that might not pop up on the GPS device, especially in the center. You’ll have to be extremely careful when encountering “topes,” the huge road bumps designed to reduce speed, so that you don’t clunk the bottom of your rental car.
- Traffic in Puebla is rather manageable when compared to other big cities such as Mexico City, but you’ll still experience some rush hour congestion. Avoid driving between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m., and then between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. so you skip the crowds, especially on the route to the airport. Routes to popular places such as Cholula are more crowded early in the morning on weekends.
- Book your rental car in Puebla City at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy rental cars in Puebla City are around 56% cheaper than other car types, on average

Jun. 2019
Cons:
The price was triple what I was quoted when I arrived.3.6 Poor
Oct. 2017
Pros:
Clean and well kept carCons:
I booked a car from 10am thursday to 2pm sunday. On pick up I asked for a gps as a big advertise was sitting on the desk - GPS $174 per day. It appeared they ddidn't have any. As an european driver, the gps in mexico is absolute must and I did suffer a lot without it. I booked the smallest and cheapest car, but the price went up to about £120 with a basic insurance. On my day of drop off, I went there half an hour later, as the traffic was horrendous. The desk was closed. No one was there. Another Rep from Europcar advised me just to leave the keys at Enterprise desk, but refused to take them. I started to look for a help. No one could do anything. I had to hurry up for my plane at Mexico city. No information at the airport. Just felt so helpless. At the end, having been pressed for time, I left the car at the car park and left the keys at Europcar desk(their rep was missing at that point). So I left the car without anyone checking it for damages or petrol. Enterprise kept £500 as a deposit and I don't know if it is going to be refunded. I left the car with full tank and no damages, but there was no one to certify that. This is not a way how a big company should operate. Extremely disappointed of their attitude and lack of professionalism. At least they should have sent me an email, assuring me everything is ok. I would advise anyone not to book a car at Puebla airport from Enterprise. Not safe.2.0 Poor
Sep. 2017
Pros:
The car was decent.Cons:
A friend who lives near the airport there warned me that the airport car rental agencies always add on extra fees. I called Enterprise in advance and the assured me that this would not happen, and they told me what I would pay. It was late in the evening when I got to the counter. The whole process took over an hour, which is excessively long. The agent refused to allow me to waive insurance, I'm covered both by my credit card and my regular car insurance. When he finally agreed to allow me to use my own insurance he demanded a $3,500.0 US Dollar deposit! My card didn't have that kind of room on it, not to mention that a charge like that is completely unreasonable. Because it was late and I had no other options to leave the airport he made me purchase full coverage insurance for over $200, which was money I don't have. He was unprofessional and unreasonable. I'm not sure if he gets a bonus for adding insurance but it definitely seemed that way. I have already emailed Enterprise but have not heard back from them.2.0 Poor

Aug. 2019
Pros:
The car was clean and fine but had several dings in the side. I’ve never seen such a thing on a rental car before.Cons:
Our rental was supposed to cost about $6. They charged over $70 and forced us to purchase insurance which I had already purchased the carrentals.com. Also charged $300 for a deposit instead of simply authorizing that amount. Terrible experience.2.0 Poor

Dec. 2016
Pros:
The car ran and handled ok.Cons:
Very limited vehicle selection. Vehicle had ran ok, but lots of issues including (safety) no missing driver's sun vision. Fuel and trunk release handles missing and not attached. Fuel released opened the trunk and trunk release labled as fuel, The driver's sun visor was the most concerning. It seems that previous damages or issues were not repaired. Not a big issue but the vehicle had had half a tank of fuel. I feel that the car should be full of fuel when it is rented and be returned the same by the renter. Rather than guessing how much fuel to buy to get to half a tank or so. No TCL here for the car by the agency.. The rate, deposit and insurance were excessive for the vehicle Renault Logan in my opinion.Budget

Pros:
No, I was asked to had a deposit of $2,500 USD to rent the car and forced to pay with a different CC , I told the Budget Rep that I want to paid with the same CC and he told me that, that was not going to be possible and threat me on not giving me the rental car His name is, Marco Antonio Vazquez CCons:
