Should I rent a car in Mexico City

What's the best way to get around Mexico City? Shuttles might seem convenient, but typically, they only go to major attractions, making it more difficult to get to smaller attractions or towns. Hiring a driver can get expensive, and public transport forces you to adhere to someone else's schedule on your holiday.

When you rent a car from Enterprise, you have the flexibility to customise your trip. Enjoy the fun things you want to do when it is convenient for your schedule – no one else's. Interested in exploring Lovers Beach? Or maybe you'd rather play in the waters at Pelican Rock. With your Enterprise Rental Car, you can arrive early (or later) and visit these exciting attractions without crowded tour buses.

Whether you're looking for customisation or convenience, renting a car through Enterprise will help you make the most of your Mexico City holiday.
