KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Baton Rouge

  • Discover everything Louisiana’s capital has on display within your own time by renting a car upon your arrival. Don’t rely on delayed public transport or expensive cab rides, and seize the opportunity to not only visit attractions like the Louisiana State Capitol, but also to explore surrounding scenic places like a drive alongside the famous Mississippi River or a visit to Lake Maurepas and Wildlife Center, about 1 hour away by car.
  • Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport is located just over 7 miles north of the city, and the quickest way to reach your next destinations is by opting for a hire car directly from the various agencies on the airport grounds. Simply follow the signs to the baggage claim area, where companies like Avis, Hertz, or Enterprise offer their vehicles. The quickest way to the heart of Baton Rouge is via the I-110 South.
  • Driving defensively in Baton Rouge is a good choice, as local drivers have a reputation of driving rather aggressively, including rarely using signal blinkers, driving fast through the city, and changing lanes without warning before squeezing into tight spaces between other cars in the lane. Don’t let local drivers stress you out and adhere to all speed limits and street regulations, even if you may be honked at once or twice for those decisions -- it is better to play it safe.
  • Rush hours can be intense in the city and morning rush hour between 7 and 9 am as well as evening rush hour from 5 to 7 pm should be avoided, if possible. Especially the I-10 can face heavy congestion during these times, so plan your journeys around those peak times to enjoy a more stress-free driving experience. On weekends, rush hour is not too bad, but when driving in the vicinity of the LSU campus on the day of a game, there can be plenty of traffic as well.
  • Book your car hire in Baton Rouge at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Off-airport car hire locations in Baton Rouge are around 13% cheaper than airport locations on average

FAQs about car hire in Baton Rouge

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Baton Rouge?

    With heavy traffic and aggressive drivers changing lanes suddenly, it is a good idea to opt for a compact car to take up less space on the road and be able to fit into almost any parking spot. When planning to leave the city limits and venture out into nature, a 4-wheel-drive car is recommended.

  • What’s the speed limit in Baton Rouge?

    Within the city, there is a maximum speed limit of 25 mph and 55 mph on secondary roads outside built-up areas. Divided highways allow up to 65 mph, and on interstates up to 70 mph is permitted, though there are also stretches of interstates which permit 75 mph. Remember to slow down if the weather or road conditions are poor.

  • Where are the best places to park in Baton Rouge?

    There is metered on-street parking in Baton Rouge available, but always check the designated signs for prices and time restrictions. The easiest way is to choose one of the many parking garages and lots, such as the BRP Lot 11 in Convention Road, which costs around $6 per two hours, or Third Street Garage (approximately $4 per 2 hours).

  • What is the cheapest car hire company in Baton Rouge?

    In the past 72 hours, the cheapest car hires were found at Budget (£39/day), Avis (£40/day) and Hertz (£82/day). In the last 72 hours the cheapest hire car price was found at Budget 9430 Jackie Cochran Drive 70807 (6 miles from the city centre).

I didn’t like anything about the experience. There were no cars available for rental at any Hertz location which was a waste of time and energy. The company reps refused to assist me with contacting other locations for availability. I was able to finally obtain a rental from Enterprise and will just stick to them in the future because although they were out of cars they actually contacted me to get me set up with another location that had a car in stock for me.

We had scheduled a pick up at midnight when our flight was supposed to arrive. Unfortunately, it ended up arriving two hours later. When we went to the front counter, there was a sign that said they were closed and to go to the third floor of the rental garage where there would be an attendant to help us. When we got to the third floor of the rental garage, however, there was a group of people waiting and no Enterprise attendant. Instead, there was a sign saying someone would be there by 9 am. So a bunch of people were waiting in a freezing cold parking garage with no one to give them their cars. Maybe this was just the Baton Rouge office, but to be safe I will avoid enterprise in the future. We were lucky to get an Uber at 2 am.

I really enjoyed the gentleman who checked me in. I was unsure of what type of vehicle to get and he guided me in the right direction perfect. So grateful What could be better is I was unsure of where to pick the car up there was nobody at the budget desk so I had to go inside the airport and turn the vehicle in as well as check it out there was nobody at the office in the parking garage when I picked up and when I dropped off. Thank you other than that it was wonderful. Thank you

It was an easy experience. I had some wait time at the Budget in Baton Rouge but once I get checked in, I signed a few papers and checked the car. Then I was on my way. The car was a good and clean vehicle, tank was filled with gas. Pretty seamless. Drop-off in Broken Arrow was even easier. He checked the mileage and gave me my receipt, and I was on my way. Fast and efficient experience.
