KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Chesapeake

  • Cheap car rentals in Chesapeake are among the most convenient ways to move around the city and visit major attractions. The convenience of the rental cars will allow you to travel to Deep Branch Family Campground, about 149 mi from the city, and the Cam Ocean Forest, about 151 mi from Chesapeake. It is also easy to get to Point Lookout Lighthouse, about 88 mi North of Chesapeake, and Stony Point Fashion Park, which is located about 86 mi to the northwest of Chesapeake. The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts is about 86 mi to the northwest, with the Chincoteague Island being about 94 mi to the northeast of the city.
  • When driving Chesapeake car rentals, it is important that you remain vigilant and drive cautiously. The city will have orange markings and signs to remind you of safety. It is important to watch out for construction sites, especially where vehicles keep moving in and out of work zones. In such cases, you will need to obey channelizing devices, signs, and markings on the road. The city also has a move over and move it law in cases where there is an accident, blinking, or alternating blue, amber, or red lights. You will need to approach cautiously and, in safe scenarios, yield the right of way by changing the lane to one that is not adjacent to the vehicle that is stationery.
  • There are several places to find a cheap car rental in Chesapeake, Virginia. Suppose you need a cheap ride in the city, head over to Chesapeake – Battlefield Blvd (C4K) on Boulevard North. The location is known for luxury, sedan sizes, SUV rental, pickup trucks, and van rentals. You can also visit Chesapeake – Parkview Shops HLE located on Parkview drive or rent a car at Chesapeake Downtown. If you need a vehicle from Enterprise, you can visit Enterprise Rent a car at Great Bridge Chesapeake or the city's major airports.
  • When it comes to tourist attractions, there is no shortage of places you can visit at Chesapeake. The Dismal Swamp Canal Trail, which is approximately 33 miles from the airport, the Historic Ridge Farm with its organic strawberries and pumpkins, and the iconic South Norfolk Jordan Bridge, are about 17min drive and 9 miles away. Now suppose you want to come to Chesapeake to visit all these, which better way to do it than through a flexible drive in a rental car? Through KAYAK, you can rent a vehicle with Chesapeake car rentals for a day, week, or for as long as you want and enjoy the convenience you couldn't experience if you used a bus or a taxi. Renting a car with car rentals in Chesapeake through KAYAK makes navigating through the city much more flexible.
  • There are four major airports in Chesapeake, namely, Norfolk International Airport, Chesapeake Regional Airport, Hampton Roads Executive Airport, and Williamsburg International Airport, located 45min North of Chesapeake. All these airports have designated car rental companies that you can choose from. For example, car rentals in Chesapeake such as Alamo, Avis, Enterprise, Dollar, Thrifty, Budgets, Payless, and National are accessible from these airports. At Norfolk Airport they're all located near the baggage claim area at the exit terminal. At Williamsburg Airport, you can find car rental companies such as Budget, Thrifty, and Enterprise. The other two airports do not have onsite car rentals.
  • To help you avoid unpleasant experiences with other road users such as pedestrians, cyclists, and other motorists, it is advised to exercise maximum caution when driving on Chesapeake roadways. Depending on the time and season of your visit to Chesapeake, you may experience weather elements such as snow, rain, and hail.
  • Chesapeake streets are typically busy due to traffic congestion, especially during rush hour. It is important to note that between 7am - 9am and 4pm - 7pm, the roadways experience traffic gridlock due to rush hour. Unless it's extremely necessary, you might want to drive around the city of Chesapeake before or after these hours to avoid being inconvenienced. Also, be careful when using Interstate 64 from Interstate 464 to Bowers Hill on I-662/264 near High Rise Bridge. It is one of the most heavily congested interstates in Chesapeake. We also recommend using GPS when driving through unfamiliar routes to keep track of your surroundings and destination.
  • Book your rental car in Chesapeake at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

The price.

Cons:

Office space is very shabby and dirty. Car smelled strongly of air fresheners and the high touch surfaces didn't seem to have been cleaned well. I think I somehow lucked out with not too much trouble but I won't be trying my luck at this Hertz again.

Please make sure the note to bring the credit card with you to pick up is SUPER HUGE! I am not someone who carries the credit card I use for these kinds of purchases. It is in my phone for tap payment and of course I have access to it when I needed it, but I didn't have it when I first arrived. Yes, you do have the information that says to bring it, but not prominent enough. I don't rent cars enough to know this is required. So I would appreciate that being a HUGE flash sign you tell everyone that rents cars...more than just a note. When I got there, the place didn't have my car. They were waiting for it to be driven over from the next city. It didn't have a full tank because of this (Mostly full, but one tick down on the fuel gauge) The car sorta smelled like sweat, but I was able to use spray to make it tolerable. The car was ok. Chevy Sparks are terrible, but they get the job done.

The first van they gave me was a dented up junk. Driver seat was all ripped up. The plates and Inspection were both expired. I returned it immediately and the next van the same. The third attempt was acceptable. Probably won’t use kayak or Hertz again.
