Car was excellent and met our needs very well. The exterior of car was dirty and windshield especially. Tucson does not have rain that often, so car could have been washed.Reviewed 25 Oct 2024

I got to my reservation time and there was maybe 12-15 people in line with two workers in the front. I stood in line for over 2 hours. Not once did the employees apologize. Maybe 3-5 people left the line to enterprise and was in line less than 15 minutes. Myself after the 2 hours past my reservation time, one worker just grabs her stuff and just says “someone will be with you”. Waiting for the one desk employee for around 20 minutes. I make it to the counter to find out that budget did not have the car I reserved. I left the counter and walked to enterprise. I will never go back to budget.Reviewed 20 Aug 2024

The woman at the service desk was very kind. Unfortunately, the mini van was damaged before I got it off the lot so I had to get another one. The second van was not clean. Very poor representation for Budget.Reviewed 4 Jun 2024

I needed a car at the last minute due to a canceled flight from Tucson. The only way to get to our destination for a celebratory event was to book a flight on another airline from Phoenix. I was able to make a car reservation online from my phone which was easy to do. When the counter opened the service person was very helpful but the added charges were very confusing and unclear. What started as a less than one-day rental to get from the Tucson airport to Phoenix airport costing about $100 turned into a rental for less than 8 hours for $250. Otherwise, the rental was excellent.Reviewed 21 May 2024

Kayak didn't prompt me for my FastBreak number so I initially had to stand in line, which was 10+ people and didn't move the entire time I was there. I eventually managed to add my reservation to FastBreak and was able to get my car there but I would have wasted a huge amount of time if that didn't work.Reviewed 18 Apr 2024

I wanted to rent at tucson airport, no one told me it was a mile and a half away with no shuttle. I waited for 30 minutes at the tucson airport. I had to Uber ($18) to the new site. When I arrived they said they called me while I was on the plane to tell me they cancelled my car.Reviewed 15 Apr 2024

I picked up the van. It had 1/4 of a tank of fuel. I took a picture of it. I have never picked up a vehicle that did not have a full tank. I returned it with just over a 1/4 of a tank. They charged me over $190 for fuel. I will be trying to get my money back from them.Reviewed 31 Mar 2024

Top tips for hiring a car from Budget in Tucson
- Although Tucson isn’t even half as large as nearby Phoenix, it does stretch out over about 227 square miles. Because of this, you aren’t going to be able to get around town when you visit Tucson simply by walking or even using ridesharing services. Instead, you will need to look into trying to book Budget car rentals in Tucson so that you always have a reliable ride. You may also want to think about renting a fuel-friendly vehicle from Budget since you’re going to spend your fair share of time out on the road getting from one place to the next.
- Outside of being a very big city in terms of size, Tucson also has well over half a million people living in it. As a result, it isn’t uncommon for the roads in and around Tucson to be congested, especially at rush hour.
