Top tips for renting a car in Saint George
- Your trip to Utah begins by picking up cheap car rentals in Saint George Municipal Airport in Saint George and driving approximately 15 miles or 24km to the city center. Driving is the only way you're going to enjoy your trip. How else will you make it to the Valley of Fire state park or the remote Spring Valley State for sight-seeing, fishing, ATV'ing, hunting, and hiking? But as you unplug, it's important to update yourself with the state law to ensure you're not breaking it. For example, even when off-roading, you and your companions must wear safety belts, plus you cannot possess or transport any open containers of alcohol inside Saint George car rentals.
- There's more to Saint George than being associated as the gateway to Zion National Park, the Mormon population, the 5-acre Red Hills Desert Garden, the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm, and more. Other unique destinations located a few hours from St. George include an off-roading drive to St. George Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, a 2-hour and 43-minute drive to the North Rim, Grand Canyon National Park, about 45-minute fishing trip to Pine Valley State Park, and 2.5-hour scenic drive to Lake Powell for dinner at the Wahweap Marina.
- Utah's toll road, the Adam Avenue Parkway that connects US-89 to I-84 near Washington Terrace, is the only toll road that runs across the state of Utah that allows commuters to bypass the rest of US-89 through Washington Terrace to I-84. While E-ZPass is accepted in Utah and Colorado, you can settle your toll fees on the parkway with cash or with an ExpressCard. Note that there is no video tolling system on Adams Avenue Parkway.
- Saint George Utah has a climate that is primarily dry and semi-arid with temperatures that can get extremely high. For this reason, exploring the city is much more comfortable using a rental car compared to other public transportation services. The main airport, which is the Saint George Regional Airport, is remotely located near the outskirts of the city, making car rentals in Saint George an ideal option for touring the sights of the city. Rental cars are also convenient for touring popular tourist attractions, such as the Zion National Park, which is located less than an hour away. Alternatively, you can take a drive to the desert to tour the Little Black Mountain Petroglyphs.
- There are a number of car rental services in the city, some of which are conveniently situated at the Saint George Regional Airport and include Enterprise, Hertz, Budget, National and Sunnycars, all located at 4550 S. Airport Parkway. Off-site agencies are accessible via the Saint George Shuttle and the Salt Lake Express, in addition to local airport taxis. Onsite agencies can be found outside the terminal door to your left and right.
- There are a number of areas to enjoy scenic drives while visiting Saint George. However, when roads get too crowded, some drivers attempt to cut into traffic while turning sharp illegal corners and changing lanes, which can cause major accidents. Visitors should also be wary of pedestrians and cyclists who, at times, don’t adhere to traffic lights.
- Rush hours in Saint George are short-lived, with locals spending an average of 20min in traffic. However, like many other major cities, some roads contain potholes and/or construction work, which might end up extending the length of your journey. Since the weather in Saint George is mostly sunny throughout the year, drivers often experience a hassle-free time on the road.

May 2021
Pros:
Pick up was easy. Drop off time seemed a little strict given that the office was closed both on Saturday and Sunday Sunday and all that was required was a key drop off.Cons:
Reserved a truck. When called the day before our reservation they said that they were short on trucks. I did say that anything with 4-wheel drive and a higher clearance was acceptable, was given a Jeep Cherokee that is not any farther off the ground than a sedan.10.0 Wonderful

May 2020
Cons:
I was frustrated that what I reserved (a compact car) wasn’t there and I was told there was only a minivan for me. It was not needed, didn’t get as good of gas mileage and ended up costing me more in gas. I am also very unhappy that the office where I dropped off the van was closed at 4:30pm on a Thursday. Now it’s Saturday and I still don’t have a receipt and my $200 deposit still hasn’t been refunded.Hertz

Cons:
I’ve never had a rental company tell me I had to clean the car before I returned it. Usually the company will wash and vacuum cars after they get them back. I think this should be the companies responsibility.2.0 Poor

May 2019
Pros:
The pick-up and drop-off where easy, the staff friendly. The vehicle was, without a question, the dirties vehicle I've ever rented.It's almost like they just washed the outside and that's it. There was trash inside the vehicle, including leftover food. There was trash in the trunk. TCons:
Maybe clean the vehicle? It also had no wind sheild wiper fluid. And they charged me a full day for going 2 hours past my drop-off time. I won't use them or Kayak again.Budget

Mar. 2021
Pros:
Price was goodCons:
I rented a 4x4 pickup because there was three of us going on a ski trip. They stated that the pickup (2020 Ram Limited) had too many miles on it and could not be rented. They in turn gave me a Durango only to discover that it was not a 4x4, they then traded that for a Toyota 4-Runner which was a gutless tinny 4x4 that barely made it over the mountain and the cruise control did not work. I ended up trading that in for a Ford Explorer Platinum which was perfect... So what is my time worth??? I made a reservation weeks in advance and ended up getting keys for 4-different vehicles before getting something that was satisfactory!! Disappointed to say the least!5.6 Fair

Cons:
Car stunk to high heaven. Smelled like somebody smoked in the car and they used some strong smelling cleaner to cover it up. Was so bad I had to stop and get some febreeze to counteract the smell.2.0 Poor

Your company oversold the rentals....so that the four of us that had reservations we not able to get a car and stranded at the airport at 11:15 p.m with no can service..... unacceptable!!!4.0 Mediocre
Jan. 2020
Pros:
The car ran well and was good on mileage.Cons:
The emergency reserve person working on the 27th was extremely stressed and taking it out on the customers. I stood in line for 2 hrs to get the car I had reserved. I also did not receive a mid size SUV even though that’s what I reserved. I received a large car but paid the mid size SUV price. I would NEVER call in that person to work ever again. Even if it’s an emergency. No patience, rude to the customers, told us all to go somewhere else, she even said out loud that she didn’t know how to do anything. Anyone would be better than her.4.8 Mediocre
Dec. 2019
Pros:
I suppose the fact the car we finally got did not break down and drove wellCons:
We arrived on the Tues after Thanksgiving. Staff greeted us with "we're so stressed out, so many cars came back, we can't keep up. Your car won't be ready for an hour or more as we just don't have the staff to keep up with the cleaning". Not a good start to OUR vacation. We ordered a car, and they offered us a truck instead, but it was a monster truck, huge! Poor gas mileage, difficult to park. So we went and got lunch and came back to exchange. Now a line, had to wait 30 min to get waited on. Then same sad story from agent, but we got a car. Went out to lot, they were still cleaning so we helped put it back together, and had them forgo the rest of cleaning--now 4 hrs into our vacation time, no fun. Still hearing how stressed they were. Well guess what now we were stressed!!Alamo

Pros:
Excellent staff when checking in- he was super fast and friendly. And drop-off was so SO easy. She directed me where to park my car, scanned the windshield and sent me on my way. It was a really easy rental experience. I'm happy with my service.Cons:
It's always so much more expensive when dropping a vehicle off at a different location. I wish that wasn't the case. Not sure it was worth over $100 to have the car for 5 hours.10.0 Wonderful
