KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Fortaleza
- Renting a vehicle is highly recommended to tourists visiting Fortaleza because there really is no better way to get around. Bus service is available in the city, but at night the service is quite limited with potentially long wait times in between buses. For families and groups, this can make coordinating travel plans a hassle, so stick to the easier option: a hire car.
- If you are like many travelers, the first part of any journey starts with picking up your hire car. For travelers with flights to Pinto Martins – Fortaleza International Airport, the hire car counters are located in the airport’s Arrivals Hall. There are also a number of hire car businesses across the street from the airport and adjacent to it.
- Drivers should take note that right turns on red are prohibited in Fortaleza unless the intersection has a sign stating otherwise. At night it is not uncommon for this law to not be followed, however, especially by locals -- so keep your eyes open and adapt accordingly.
- Fortaleza, though not the largest of cities, can occasionally have its fair share of traffic woes. Luckily for drivers, these traffic problems are largely confined to two primary rush hours in the morning and afternoon. Specifically, they run from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and from 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. During peak traffic hours the main street to avoid is Avenida Quarto Anel Viário, as it experiences the bulk of the city’s congestion.
- Book your rental car in Fortaleza at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy rental cars in Fortaleza are around 55% cheaper than other car types, on average

Cons:
Nobody speaks English. Drop off place was different than was sent in the email, took us an extra hour to find the correct location. Then we were charged $850 extra after dropping it off without any explanation. The guy checked the car and everything was fine, and within one hour we were chargedLocaliza
