Prices and availability for Guadalajara come through our partner networks, EconomyBookings and Discover Cars. Your booking completes on the partner's secure checkout.
Guadalajara is the gateway to Jalisco, and the reason to rent a car here is what sits an hour or two outside the city: the agave fields and distilleries around Tequila, the shores of Lake Chapala, and the artisan town of Tlaquepaque on the edge of town. In the city itself, the wide avenues and glorietas move fast and parking near the historic centre is tight. Our partner network compares local and international rental companies with live prices.

Renting a car in Guadalajara: common questions
Do I need a car to see Tequila and the agave country?
A car gives you the freedom to stop at the smaller distilleries and viewpoints along the route that the tourist trains skip. The road out west is a good toll highway most of the way, and the town itself is compact enough to park once and walk. Check the conditions shown per car if you plan to take it beyond Jalisco.
Where should I pick up, the airport or the city?
The airport sits south-east of the city on the road towards Lake Chapala, so it is the natural start for a lake or Tequila trip. If you are spending your first days in the centre or Tlaquepaque, collect the car when you leave, since the historic core is easier on foot and by taxi.
What licence do I need?
A full driving licence held for at least a year is the usual requirement, and each company sets its own minimum age and young-driver conditions. If your licence is not in the Latin alphabet, bring an International Driving Permit alongside it. The exact conditions for every car are shown before you book.
Is there a deposit, and what about insurance?
Deposit and insurance terms differ between companies in Guadalajara, so they are shown per car before you book. You will see what is included, what the excess is, and whether a deposit is held on your card at the desk.
Where does the booking actually happen?
You search from this page and see live cars and prices on our partner’s site. When you choose one, the booking completes on their secure checkout, where you confirm the details and receive your voucher. Show the voucher at the desk on pick-up.
