Top tips for renting a car in Boca Raton
- Booking cheap car rentals in Boca Raton gives you the freedom to explore the city throughout the day. This is advantageous, unlike boarding buses that halt at particular towns at specific hours. If you're traveling with kids, you can take them to Children's Science Explorium, located 1.8 miles (2.9km) and a 4-minutedrive from the city center. Another place to drive to is the Red Reef Park, located 5.5 miles (8.9km) and a 7-minutedrive from the city center. Renting a car for longer enables one to visit numerous attractions, including Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse, located 6.61 miles (10.6km), a 10-minutedrive from the city center.
- Beware of pedestrians, crosswalks, and school crossing signs when driving a rental car in Boca Raton. Boca Raton streets have clear signposts on speeds, pedestrians, and bicyclists. Again, avoid driving on pedestrian or cyclist only-streets to avoid injuring pedestrians to avoid hefty fines. These streets have visible designs, pavement markers and signs separated from traffic by a visible barrier. Again, you need to be at least 20 feet before making a right turn near a bicyclist. Also, you must allow a group of 10 cyclists to pass through an intersection first before you continue driving.
- Beware of DUI traffic stops in Boca Raton city. You're considered drunk if your alcohol blood concentration is 0.08 or higher. If caught driving drunk, you may serve a jail term of 60 days or pay a $500 fine. Again, you shouldn't have alcohol containers in your vehicle. If found, you may pay a fine of $73 to $90. Thus, before booking cheap car rentals in Boca Raton, research new traffic laws to avoid violations and pay heavy fines. In addition, you can contact your car rental agency and learn more about drunk driving and fines in the city.
- Exploring Palm Beach County is easy with car rentals in Boca Raton. Spend the day driving up and down the coast, stopping at the local beaches and eateries, or simply enjoying the views of the Atlantic Ocean. Visit Lake Okeechobee or the Big Cypress National Preserve in the Everglades, both of which are under 90 miles west of the city. You can also drive 30min south to visit Ft. Lauderdale, and an additional 30min drive will get you to the shopping and nightlife of Miami.
- Accessing the Rental Car Center at Miami International Airport is easy using the MIA Mover, an automated tram running between the airport’s main terminal and the Rental Car Center. The purple MIA Mover signs throughout the airport will direct you to the MIA Mover station, located on the third level of the main terminal between the Dolphin and Flamingo garages (near Concourse E). This free shuttle tram takes you to the Rental Car Center's customer service lobby, a short 4-minute ride from the airport.
- Boca Raton’s streets are easy to navigate, making it a great city for driving in a rental car. There aren’t many confusing road environments such as one-way streets or traffic circles to worry about. However, travelers should use caution at the intersection of Glades Road and State Road 7 near the Shadowood Square mall, there are three turning lanes from State Road 7 that turn onto Glades Road, and this has been the source of many accidents.
- Unless there is an event going on in the city, Boca Raton has relatively little traffic congestion, although traffic does slow down during the morning and evening rush hours, especially on Glades Road near the I-95 interchange. Traffic is worse during the height of winter (when the "snowbirds," aka Northerners, flock to the city), the height of summer vacation, and during spring break.

Pros:
Process for renting very eas Rental process easy, staff friendly and helpful with luggage. Bus for pick up and drop off readily available. Attractive new car.Cons:
The car only had 1400 miles on it but when sitting at a light it would frequently feel like it was going to stall. Fortunately it never did. In addition, I returned the car early due to the coronavirus and was told I would get money back for the early return but later found out that you would only give me a credit. I was not happy as this was my first car rental in 5 years and i have no trips planned for the next 12 months. i wouldn't have returned it early if there wasn't a pandemic and think the company should be more flexible than their "normal" policy of providing credits... think you should reconsider your policy due to circumstances.8.8 Very good

Dec. 2021
Pros:
NothingCons:
The day before my scheduled pick up, the Boca Raton branch called to let me know that there may be a shortage of cars and to call the day I arrived to see if my requested car was available. I called multiple times that day but no answer. Also realize that Kayak allowed me to make a reservation for a 5pm pickup, however the location closed at 5pm so if I showed up a few minutes late I wouldnt have been able to pick it up. The booking system should not allow reservations to be made at the locations closing time. As a result I did not pick up the rental. I did not hear from the rental location either, and ended up using Uber for my entire trip.9.6 Wonderful

Pros:
Gaby was very helpful.Cons:
Made a reservation at one location, called day prior to confirm. They told me the reservation would be honored at an office closer to my home. Called the number they gave me, second office said there was another office closer to my home. Called third office, was told by a young man named Marshall that he would call me tomorrow (day of pickup) to confirm. Never heard from him, called third location when I was en route to pick up, they told me they couldn't honor my reservation, didn't have the vehicle. Called first office, they didn't have vehicle either but said one was scheduled for return, with unknown return time. Fortunately one came in and I was able to get it. Not a fun experience.6.8 Okay

Feb. 2017
Pros:
Location was convenient to where I was staying.Cons:
I called ahead to reconfirm and check if cars were available and how long I should expect to wait. I was told no wait. I got there and there waited 30 minutes and noticed someone who was a walk-in without a reservation after me had already gotten a car and left. Apparently there was a mix-up with the car they originally wanted to give me. So 45 min later and late to pick up my mom at the airport, I got a car. I originally told the rep i didnt want any insurance but she directed me to sign in areas that I later learned was accepting insurance and cost me an additional $200.Avis
