Top tips for renting a car in Jackson
- You must meet a few requirements to enjoy top scenic drives around Jackson like the famous Grand Teton Inner Park Loop road, the Gros Ventre Road to Slide Lake, Signal Mountain, and Kelly Loop. The minimum age to hire cheap car rentals in Jackson is 21 years, with an applicable Young Driver’s Fee for renters under 25. You must also present a valid government-issued driver’s license, including a debit or credit card in your name (main driver), to put down a deposit for your rental. Some car rental companies in Jackson may ask for additional documentation, especially for international renters or those planning to drive across the border.
- If you’ve missed your chance to pick up your rental straight from the Jackson Hole airport, you can rent a car from other off-site locations. For example, there’s a Thrifty on 345 W. Broadway, a Hertz on 1225 WY-22, including a Budget, and Alamo on 1250 E. Airport Road. Depending on your budget, use a search aggregate like KAYAK to find cheap car rentals in Jackson and talk to an agent about payment options and relevant documentation.
- Some Jackson car rentals have a toll pass program that allows renters to drive through toll lanes and make payments electronically without having to stop along the way to pay cash at toll plazas. To ensure a seamless trip around the mountainous town of Jackson, confirm with the rental company to determine the availability of the TollPass program and related products. This way, you can expand your trip beyond local attractions such as the Devils Tower National Monument, Hot Springs State Park, or Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area.
- Jackson, Wyoming is pure mountain country and if you truly want to make the most out of your time there, then a car is absolutely necessary. A rental car unlocks all of the beautiful neighboring countryside such as Grand Teton National Park, which is just 5 miles outside of town. Another great option for visitors is the Shoshone National Forest, which is 56 miles away.
- For travelers with flights landing at Jackson Hole Airport, you can find the rental car desks in the Arrivals Hall of the airport. Additionally, there are shuttle buses outside of the main terminal exit to take visitors to off-site rental car companies.
- Jackson is undoubtedly a winter sports utopia with three ski resorts in its immediate vicinity. However, this means that the snow can be quite heavy at certain times of year, so drivers should take care when driving during heavy snowfall. It is easy to lose control of your car in such weather conditions and drivers who are not confident should drive a bit slower than they normally would.
- Rush hour traffic is a fortunately a very mild affair in Jackson, so drivers truly don’t have much to worry about. The brief rush hour typically starts around 8:00 a.m. and lasts only until 9:00 a.m. most mornings. In the afternoon, there is another brief period of traffic from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Cons:
Car was 1/2 full of gas at pickup. I notified Alamo 800 number and at drop off. I was assured this would be corrected (I also returned with 1/2 full tank). Sadly, I was charged for not returning full anyway. Alamo customer service isn’t poor and disorganized. Very difficult to reach a live person who can complete the requested task. Fight through the answering system only to get passed on or told the issue is covered (when I see now on my statement, it was not corrected)10.0 Wonderful
