KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Piarco
- Car hire in Piarco provides you with a level of flexibility and freedom that isn’t possible with other transport methods. Not only can you arrive and depart at any time without the need to follow timetables, but you can also go direct to your destination. For example, it’s possible to travel to Piarco in about 20min by car. As there are no public transport options for this journey, an alternative way to make the trip would be to wait for a taxi.
- Piarco International Airport (POS) is very close to Piarco, making it a very convenient place to collect a hire car from. Once you’ve touched down, collected your bags, and passed through immigration, it’s easy to locate the car hire agencies. For example, Alamo is in the Arrivals Hall, with Hertz being a free shuttle ride away. You can get the keys from your Piarco car hire provider once you’ve paid with a card in your name, shown current identification, and completed the required paperwork.
- Using a car hire in Piarco, you’ll see it’s a busy town, which is located conveniently close to the airport. As there are no laws that prohibit jaywalking in Trinidad and Tobago, you must drive cautiously in the town as people will cross the roads in random areas that aren’t meant for pedestrians. You should also frequently check your mirrors, as mopeds are a popular mode of transport, so it’s important to be aware of your surroundings.
- When driving a Piarco hire car, you will notice that traffic can get very congested, especially on the roads going to and from the airport terminal. In addition to this, the roads get busy during rush hour, which is from around 6:00 to 8:00 in the morning and about 15:00 to 18:00 in the afternoon. So, if you prefer to drive on quieter roads, you should drive in the late morning and early afternoon. One of the busiest roads is Churchill Roosevelt Highway. If you want to drive on less congested roads, try Eastern Main Road, which runs parallel with the motorway for the majority of the time.
- Book your rental car in Piarco at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Mini rental cars in Piarco are around 7% more expensive than other car types, on average

Pros:
The staff seemed helpful.Cons:
I booked a midsize SUV and got a Corolla wagon. I was quite disappointed. In addition to that, my car didn’t have any USB chargers. This was basically a standard or economy vehicle.8.0 Very good
