KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in San Bernardino

  • Consider car rentals in San Bernadino if you want to take advantage of the phenomenal scenic drives, such as the Rim of the World Highway through San Bernardino National Forest along the National Scenic Byway System, just 30min from town. Take a pit stop at the Deep Creek Hot Springs or head to the Glen Elen Regional Park and Amphitheater to catch a concert. With your San Bernadino car rental, you’ll be just an hour from sunny Palm Springs and under an hour from Los Angeles, and a short drive away from Lake Arrowhead and the Big Bear ski and now resort area.
  • For travelers flying into San Bernardino, the San Bernardino International Airport will be your closest stop. Most car rental branches are located off-site, near the intersection of South E Street and West Rialto Ave. Check when booking, as some providers will offer a free airport pickup. Alternatively, if you are flying into Los Angeles International Airport, proceed to the street outside the baggage claim terminal and find the signs for car rental pickup, and a shuttle will transport you to the car rental offices on-site, a mere 3min drive away.
  • The main highways in San Bernardino are the SR 18 (Waterman Ave) and the SR 66 (5th Street). The main freeways passing in and around the city are the I-10 (San Bernardino Freeway), SR 210 (Foothill Freeway), the I-215 (Barstow Freeway), the SR 259, and the SR 330. There are neither a significant number of cyclists nor pedestrians around the city and it is generally easy to find your way. Seat belts, no cell phone laws, and more than two passengers in carpool lanes are rules that are strictly enforced in San Bernardino, as well as in other parts of the state of California.
  • Traffic in the San Bernardino area is notoriously bad, especially heading west towards LA along the I-10, the Pasadena Freeway 11- or CA-60 westbound. The bulk of the workday rush hours in San Bernardino is usually in the morning, between 6am to 9am, and then from 4pm to 7pm. Carpool lanes, the two lanes farthest to the left of San Bernardino freeways, are designated for cars, buses, and vans with two or more passengers, have attempted to reduce congestion. If you are planning to head into the San Bernardino mountains in the winter months, check road and weather conditions and make sure you travel with tire chains if necessary.
  • Having cheap car rentals in San Bernardino is one way to quickly get by in the city and reach most of your destinations within the shortest time possible. If you are arriving at the San Bernardino Amtrak Station and need a rental vehicle, look no further than those found near the station. For instance, Hertz is located about a mile away from the station at downtown Marriott on 333 South Figueroa Street. You don’t have to take long taxi rides or connecting pub rides further into the city to find excellent San Bernardino car rentals. Your navigation into the city will be convenient if you choose to rent a car from the car rental agencies close to the train station.
  • Those in San Bernardino can take advantage of the car rental agencies to rent a car and tour some of the attractions found in neighboring cities. Having a rental car for such adventures is not only convenient but is also versatile. You can visit many places within a short time. For example, you may visit the K1 Speed Ontario in Ontario, CA, about 17.8 miles away, and it will take you and your family about 20 minutes to get there from the city center. You may also consider visiting the Monarch Family Fun Zone in Victorville, approximately 35 miles from San Bernardino Downtown. While at it, you may also stop by The California Route 66 Museum if you are an art lover.
  • Pay attention to cyclists when riding cheap car rentals in San Bernardino. Cyclists may share the road with drivers and ride on the extreme right side of the road by law. As you approach them, indicate and honk when passing them. Additionally, give way to cyclists if they have the right of way. Following these traffic rules will keep you from trouble with the police and enhance your adventure across the city.
  • Book your rental car in San Bernardino at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact rental cars in San Bernardino are around 73% cheaper than other car types, on average

10.0 Wonderful

Anonymous, Oct 2022

The rental car office is literally steps away from the airport. San Bernardino International Airport and Hertz Rental Cars make a quick trip to SoCal so convenient and affordable. We can finally fly down and see friends from Loma Linda to Beaumont without costing and arm and a leg or risking life and limb driving out of LAX or Ontario.
