KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Marathon

  • Comparing car rentals in Marathon to other modes of transportation like taxis and public buses, there are a number of benefits. It is more cost-effective in the long term to hire a car rather than rely on taxis if you intend to stay in the city for an extended amount of time and want to visit different areas of the city, such as Curry Hammock State Park. The freedom to choose your own departure hours and the best routes to go to your destinations is another advantage of renting a car over public transportation, which has set routes and departure times.
  • If you're flying into Florida Keys Marathon International Airport (MTH) to get to Marathon, you may easily drive from the airport to the city center, hotel, or any other place you want to go. There are car rental desks for several Marathon car rental companies inside the airport, including Avis, Hertz, Enterprise, and Budget. A free airport shuttle is available to help you get from the arrivals terminal to the car rental location, which is close to the baggage claim area.
  • You must obey Florida regulations when you and your children are driving in Marathon in a rental car. These laws mandate that all children under the age of 16 travel in restraints that are suitable for their age, height, and weight. If you are driving car rentals in Marathon, you should be cautious of pedestrians who frequently cross the street without looking for approaching traffic. Therefore, it is advised to drive at a slower speed whenever feasible on any of the streets in the city center.
  • You should be aware of the rush hours anytime you move around with car rentals in Marathon. Your driving experience begins to deteriorate when you move around the city from 7 am to 9 am and 3 pm to 6 pm. The city experiences heavy traffic flow that will force you to use alternative routes and you may end up arriving late at your destination. Also, most of the roads in Marathon get affected when driving during public holidays such as Independence Day, Good Friday, and New Year.
  • Book your car hire in Marathon at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

The staff was not pleasant at pickup. We reserved a full-size car. The car we got was not a full-size car, it was filthy inside and had an odor. We got going down the road and the tire pressure light came on. Spent a lot of money on a one-day rental that was not worth the price.
