KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Tallahassee
With not one but several huge national parks just around the corner, it is a good idea to rent a car for your next trip to Tallahassee and discover the beauty of the city as well as the surrounding areas. Explore every nook and cranny of Tallahassee, from the Tallahassee Museum in the southwest, to the Automobile Museum in the very northeast. Get the most out of your trip on your own wheels and also explore some breathtaking nature beyond the city borders.
If you fly into Tallahassee International Airport, the most convenient way to start your journey is by choosing to rent a car directly from there. Various agencies offer their vehicles to be picked up from the airport garage, so you can be in the center of Tallahassee in about 15 minutes. Keep in mind that there is no public service running between the airport and the city, so you would otherwise have to get an expensive cab or Uber to get to your next destination.
The state of Florida has many toll roads so, if you’re planning on leaving Tallahassee, make sure to have enough change to pay the tolls (about $1). There is also the Move Over law enforced now in the state, which means if there is an emergency vehicle on the side of the road, drivers have to slow down 20 mph from the original speed, or move into the left lane.
Try to avoid the rush hours in Tallahassee for a smooth and hassle-free driving experience. Usually, peak times are on weekdays between 7 and 8:30am and 5 and 6:30pm. During that time, especially Monroe Street, Tennessee Street, and Apalachee Parkway can be severely congested, and familiarizing with the one-way streets of Duval or Bronnough can be helpful to circumnavigate the main routes.
Small rental cars in Tallahassee are around 16% cheaper than other car types, on average
FAQs about renting a car in Tallahassee
What type of car is recommended for driving in Tallahassee?
Especially when remaining in the city for most of your trip, opting for an economy compact car is a wise choice to make. Unless you have a big family or lots of luggage, a compact car will have an easier job of navigating through the one-way lanes, and finding a parking spot is also less of a challenge.
What’s the speed limit in Tallahassee?
The speed limits indicated on the posted signs always state the absolute maximum which can be driven in good weather and road conditions. It is required of the driver to adapt their speed if these conditions are not given. General regulations allow 20 mph around schools, 30 mph in residential areas, 55 mph on rural roads, and up to 70 mph on rural interstates.
Where are the best places to park in Tallahassee?
There are numerous parking opportunities in Tallahassee. There is on-street parking, which is free in some places (usually the further out of the city center drivers go), or metered parking with time limits between 30 minutes going up to 10 hours. Parking garages and lots can also be found, for example around College Avenue or W. Gaines Street.

The car itself was fine, other than the major crack all the way down the front windshield. I have experienced significant billing issues. I had a one way rental and have experienced significant overbooking. I dropped the car off on time, and three days later, the location I dropped off at had not closed out my reservation (according to my local location). I was informed my billing would be resolved. Since then, I have received three more charges, and now see I have been charged about $2.000 for a $109.00 trip. I get to spend more time today trying to sort this out and I am not happy.

Terrible. I got to the airport pick up with my reservation and there was a sign that said sorry no cars. I was stranded and had to pay over 100$ in Uber fees until I found another company that had a car the next day and ended up paying over $100 more for a car.

I was promised unlimited mileage. First it said my rental will be at the airport then changed to another building on blountstown highway. They didn't have the car I requested and had to downgrade to a smaller vehicle. Had to pay .51 extra for every mile over 200 miles. Bad experience for me.

Passenger van
This rental site is NOT at the airport - it’s about 10 minutes away at a used car lot. The van reserved was not available at pickup time, and we had to come back later in the day to switch out a 5 seater car for the correct car reserved (7 seater). There was no transportation to the airport after drop off, and we had to secure our own transportation early in the morning in an unfamiliar location. The tank was only half full when we picked up, and an alert for low tire pressure went off during the rental period. The sliding doors tried to close while someone was in their way, and the engine took a long time to turn over whenever we started it. Very unsatisfactory experience.
