KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in San Fernando

  • San Fernando is known for its many historical sites and unique foods, and driving San Fernando car rentals is the best way for maximum exploration. Again, you can drive to tourist attractions far away, where public transport can’t access. When driving a rental car, you can visit Chino Hills State Park, about 55 miles southeast of the city, Ventura Botanical Gardens, approximately 50 miles west, and around 20 miles northwest of Mount Pinos.
  • If you land at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), you'll find several car rental agencies at the arrivals level near the baggage claim area. These rental agencies include Hertz, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Sixt, Budget, and National. The airport provides free shuttle services that operate every 5 to 10 minutes to connect passengers from the terminals to the car rental offices. Expect to find a vast collection of car rental types, depending on your preference.
  • Driving in San Fernando is thrilling because the roads are in excellent condition, and the drive along the mountains is breathtaking. However, be keen on the road when driving car rentals in San Fernando because the scenic views are attractive to the eyes. In addition, most streets along the mountain drive are narrow. For this reason, maintain the speed limit and use quality driving skills when navigating the turns and curves.
  • You can experience traffic when driving car rentals in San Fernando, especially in the morning and evening rush hours. Road congestion mainly occurs between 6 am and 9 am and 3 pm and 6 pm, and the most affected road is I-5. You can wait to drive after the rush hours or begin your journey earlier to avoid delays. Driving rental cars during winter can be difficult because roads are covered in snow. So, ensure your headlights are on to increase visibility and drive slowly because roads are slippery.
  • Book your car hire in San Fernando at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

    Picking small vehicles when choosing car rentals in San Fernando is the best decision because some roads in the city are narrow. Navigating a small car on narrow streets is more stress-free than driving larger vehicles. Ensure the car you pick is spacious and powerful because of the mountain roads in the city. Again, most roads in the city are in good condition, making it easy to maneuver. In addition, small cars have a lower gravity, hence stability, especially when driving at a higher speed.

On two-lane undivided highways, the maximum speed is 55 mph. If driving on blind railroad crossings, alleys, and blind intersections, maintain a speed of 15 mph and 25 mph when driving near playgrounds, school zones, businesses, and residential districts, and other areas with children present. The city has traffic cameras to monitor driver behavior, prevent speeding, and ensure safety on the road.

  • Where are the best places to park in San Fernando?

    The best, safest, and most spacious place to park is downtown San Fernando. If you need short-term parking, a few places are free for the first 2 hours, including Municipal Lot5, Woodman Van Nuys, Municipal Lot 4, City of San Fernando Lot #2, Municipal Lot #8, and Caltrans Paxton Park & Ride. Aiso Parking Lot charges $1 every hour for the first 2 hours, $3 for 3 hours, and $1.50 for every 15 minutes after 3 hours of parking. You pay $14 for 24 hours and a flat rate of $3 after 5 pm and on weekends. Southwest Parking charges $15 per day. If you park in San Fernando Court A-Lot, you pay a flat rate of $7 per hour.

Pros:

Staff was friendly, but overworked. The car I reserved was available, which I appreciated.

Cons:

There was a long line and only one person working at the desk. The car smelled like mildew pretty strongly. There was a cleanliness seal on the car, but the person who recorded the condition of the car got inside to pull it forward, defeating the purpose of the seal.

7,2 Good

Cons:

Car was not clean when picked up. Had less than a half tank of gas. Google says business opens at 8 but we had to wait until 9 before anybody showed up for drop off.
