Top tips for hiring a car at Belize City Philip S.W.Goldson airport
- You can get around Belize City more comfortably and easily with a car than with other public transport options. A car rental at Belize City Philip S.W. Goldson Airport is an excellent means of traveling comfortably on a budget, especially if you are accompanied by friends or family members and you are planning to explore different spots in the city, which may not be accessible using public means. Bus, shuttle, and taxi services follow a predetermined route to the city, but driving by yourself allows you to move freely, visiting your desired POIs, such as the Mayan ruin of Altun Ha, whenever you please. Besides, it saves you the time you’d spend waiting for a bus or shuttle.
- One practical tip for getting cheaper rates with a car rental at Belize City Philip S.W. Goldson Airport (BZE) is to book while still in your country of residence. It's advisable to rent the car online about a month or two before your flight date. There's a limited number of rental vehicles in Belize City, which means the high demand during the high season may lead to slightly inflated car rental prices.
- Do you have auto insurance coverage or a credit/debit card to stow on your rental agreement? An effective means to alleviate extra insurance costs is to check whether your auto insurance also holds in Belize City. Most car insurance policies exclude off-road and 4X4 WD cars, but most rental operators at Philip Airport consider off-road coverage. Some on-airport car rental agencies sell additional insurance to reduce your deductible.
- Once you start the engine of your rental vehicle, remember motorists are required by law to steer on the right-hand side of the road like in the US. In Belize, there's an unusual driving policy that motorists can make a left-hand turn when moving on a highway. In that case, they'll first have to pull over to the right-hand side and wait for following and oncoming traffic to clear, and then make the turn. On highways, the maximum speed is 55 mph, while motorists can reach a maximum speed of 25 mph on city roads.
- Book your car hire at Belize City Philip S.W.Goldson airport at least 1 week before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Fast check in and out. Would not recommend this companyCons:
Rough looking car, mismatched paint, poor tires ended up with a flat and the jack was broken so couldn’t even change the tire. Ended up not being able to do a lot of the traveling we wanted to do because we were afraid of getting another flat. Motor ran rough and sounded like it would die any momentDollar

Cons:
The agency we originally made a reservation through did not have a car available when we arrived. They were kind in asking other agencies if they could assist us, but the vehicle we managed to secure was in very very poor shape mechanically. The trip across the country for the nearly two weeks was very difficult with such an unreliable and dangerously maintained vehicle. It was an adventure.Avis

Friendly service. Agent asked which of 2 cars would we prefer. Didn't see any road maps on the counter but we got one after asking. Fun driving on Hummingbird Highway!2.0 Poor
Mar 2017
Cons:
We had to rent through another company because Avis didn't have the car we reserved. It ended up causing us a ton of hassles.2.0 Poor
Feb 2017
Cons:
Only a couple of international flights arrive in the evening in Belize City and everyone knows their schedule. Our flight was delayed leaving Houston, it arrived an hour late and when we got to the AVIS place at 5:30 we found the the person working there had gone home at 5:00. Other rental companies were open and waiting for passengers. We rented a car from one of them.2.0 Poor
Jan 2017
Pros:
Nothing.Cons:
Well, they didn't have a car for me so I waste don't $25USD on a cab to the airport from Belize City and then had to spend another $25 to get back into the city. I'm a go with the flow travler so it didn't ruin anything persay , but my entire plans had to change that day. Horrible service, call ahead and make sure they have a car ready for you!!!! Belize was incredible though:)2.0 Poor
Jan 2017
Cons:
I reserved this car a month in advance since I was traveling in a party of 6 and wanted to be sure to have a vehicle large enough to carry us all. Our plane landed at 4:45, it was 5 by the time we went through customs and retrieved our luggage, Avis was closed. We had to find another rental company. We were lucky that the other rental company had a vehicle large enough for us, but it was a 15 passenger van and cost alot more. I will never rent through Avis again because of this.2.0 Poor
Dec 2016
Pros:
Rented a car from Avis through kayak for my trip to Belize. Once in Belize airport Avis I was told no cars were available and sent to another company that would honor the rental price. However I ended up having to pay about US $150 more for the car. Also I was told the third party rental car insurance I bought through kakak's site would not be honored and was pressured into buying the local rental company's insurance.AQ Belize Car Rental
