KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Cusco

  • Getting a cheap car rental in Cusco will help you to explore everything Cusco and its surroundings have to offer on your own schedule with flexibility. Since this city is located in the mountains and public transport can be unreliable, you may want to use your cheap car rental in Cusco to get to other nearby towns such as Yuncaypata or Huasao.

Hertz is one of these car rental agencies that you can find near the city center of Cusco.
  • Those travellers who are unable to drive vehicles with a manual transmission will be glad to know that it is possible to rent automatic vehicles in Cusco.

Pros:

Actually my trip was cancelled by me and I didn't have any problem with Europecar.

Cons:

But I also had purchased an insurance policy by Alianz. Europecar reminded me to cancel insurance also but Alianz haven't replied to my requests. So I've lost money for insurance.

When Hertz didn’t have a car available, I settled for Thrifty. I booked the night before, which is never an issue, and upon arrival I was told that there were no cars available. They pulled up my reservation in their system, confirmed that everything was correct (date, times, etc ), and preceded to tell me that I was SOL and to check with their competitors across the street. Lastly, they then stated that I was 20mins late anyways. Hertz would never allow this. Thrifty Peru is terrible and I’m never trying them anywhere else around the world.

It was horrible because we didn't got a car. We were 2 hours late (what we wrote them via email) and when we arrived they told us that the reservation is cancelled and the car is not available anymore. They tried to give is another car then which would cost us more then three times the price from the reservation. Absolute horrific situation and employees.
