KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Sioux Falls

  • Nature lovers will enjoy a visit to Falls Park, the Butterfly House ,and the Great Plains Zoo in the city of Sioux Falls. There are also numerous scenic drives that you can take in and around the Great Plains. This includes a short drive to Omaha, Nebraska along Lewis & Clark Scenic Byway with its views of lakes, rivers, hills, and farmland.
  • Sioux Falls Regional Airport is located in eastern South Dakota. Many large airlines operate out of this facility which offers connections to and from most major airports. For added convenience, there are restaurants, shops and car hire agencies at the airport. With offices really close to baggage claim, you’ll find it easy to pick up and return your hire.
  • There are several roundabouts in the city that are supposed to help with traffic backup and improve safety. Sioux Falls is also a pedestrian-friendly town with narrow lanes throughout the downtown and shopping areas. In the winter months this city can get hit with lots of ice and snow, which require safer and more cautious driving practices.
  • Peak travel times in Sioux Falls are similar to those in other cities. In the morning commuters typically travel from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. However, the roads have the most congestion from 7 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. In the evenings you’ll want to limit your travel between the hours of 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. because of rush hour traffic.
  • Book your rental car in Sioux Falls at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate rental cars in Sioux Falls are around -9% cheaper than other car types, on average

Inside of car was very dirty, someone else's garbage was under the seat, and several white dusty flakes were everywhere, the car was very dusty. Wind shield wipers were old and not doing a great job when needing them.

4.4 Mediocre

Jan 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

This should have been very easy. It is a small town and usually courteous and friendly.

Cons:

Due to bad weather I had to re-route my trip from Minneapolis to Omaha. I was travelling to SD for a funeral. Sadly when I tried to get online at the airport for a car at the airport it only showed availability for the city. Computers rule! counter at airport was not helpful. I had to call to get help. Then when I got to Sioux Falls because I had to rent a one way drop off they made me drive back to Sioux Falls one day later to switch cars. It seemed like they could have given my car for Monday to the one-way and just let me keep the car that I came from Omaha in. It was all a big mess!!

Pros:

Upgraded to a nicer vehicle for just a few dollars more. Car was excellent, had many features and was fun to drive. I hated to turn the car back in. It was a great experience.

Cons:

Drop off was confusing. The time for my drop off was before the counter opened - I was dropping off around 5:00 a.m. Other rental car agencies had signs about where to park the car for drop off. Avis had no signs. Eventually after circling the lot three times, I parked the car in a Avis spot. I figured they would figure out that it was a drop off.
