KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Greensboro
- Renting a car is the most comfortable and convenient way to tour the city of Greensboro, North Carolina, as well as other main destinations across the state. Explore unmissable attractions such as the International Civil Rights Center and Museum or the Greensboro Arboretum, which is only 3 miles from downtown. For a longer road trip, head to Charlotte, about 90 miles away.
- All the big car hire agencies, including Alamo, Avis, Enterprise, and Hertz, can be found at Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO), which is about 12 miles from Greensboro’s city center. The car hire desks are located near the Baggage Claim area in the airport’s main terminal. The vehicles are typically parked within walking distance.
- Fall is the best time to visit, as the weather is mostly dry after the typically wet spring and summer, which often see rainfall and thunderstorms. Avoid driving in the downtown area, as it’s usually pretty packed, and park the car in the surrounding areas instead. A good tip to make use of your car is to drive it through the Guilford Courthouse National Military Park for a self-guided tour.
- Although Greensboro has one of the best commute times in the country, the roads still get busier during rush hour, both in the morning (between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m.) and in the evening (between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m.). The area near the Coliseum experiences traffic jams every time there’s a big event. The Elm-Eugene stretch downtown and Gate City Boulevard can also get rather busy.
- Book your rental car in Greensboro at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Full-size rental cars in Greensboro are around -55% cheaper than other car types, on average

Cons:
I had a great experience with my rental, the only reason I give a good and not excellent on cleaning was because the car was washed before I got it, but was a quick wash, mirrors still had salt on them, was really hard to see merging on to the interstate from the airport at night and nowhere to pull off safely to clean them myself. But again, overall was a great experience3.2 Poor

Dec 2017
Pros:
NothingCons:
I reserved a vehicle on carrentals.com and was offered renters insurance at $9/day. There was no option to pay online but i reserved at that price. When I got to the aorport they did not honor my renters insurance price and tried to charge me $29/day. Horrible business practices and unprofessional company. I will NEVER rent with them in my life time.6.4 Okay
Sep 2017
Pros:
The truck was great.Cons:
I wasn't told that there would be a fee to return the car at a different location when I booked the rental. I was quoted three different prices. My credit card was charged more than my receipt. It was complicated to find where to return the keys. I won't use this company again.8.0 Very good

Jun 2017
Cons:
I don't want to blame Budget as a company, but the man behind the counter flat out lied about the rate and what we signed. Yes, you should always read what you sign, but when someone tells you what it is, you expect they are being truthful. Customer service reimbursed 20%, but we never should have been in that position.9.6 Wonderful

Pros:
Quick on the drop off and, when we had to re-rent the same car to drive to another airport because of a weather issue the employee got me back on the road quick and adjusted the rental for the fuel I'd prepaid.10.0 Wonderful

Jan 2021
Pros:
Not much. Stood waiting at the counter while the agent was engaged in a personal conversation with someone without a mask. She could not answer questions about the drop off, and could not provide a phone number for the drop off location. Was overcharged for a full tank of gas at the dropoff location, which I will dispute. Refused a paper receipt at dropoff and was told I would get an emailed receipt. When I questioned what the charge would be for fuel, the agent said he did not know. The emailed receipt shows a charge for a full tank of gas, when the tank was over half full. That charge will be disputed. I will try to avoid Thrifty in the future.Cons:

Sep 2019
Pros:
Pickup and drop off was close to the terminal in both locations.Cons:
Two things: 1- Picking up the rental took entirely too long (25 minutes) to bring the car to us. That left us waiting outside in a parking garage in the heat with a 14 month old. 2- Our rental was out of oil at the time of pickup. Avis’s solution was to tell us to go put oil in it ourselves.5.6 Fair

Tried to give me a Tahoe first then when pressed that I rented a Suburban for its larger cargo they had me wait. Car was not ready at scheduled time and had to wait for an oil change for an hour and a half.6.0 Okay
