Car was in very good condition and clean on collection. The sales representative was patient to explain the details of hire and contract essentials. There was no hard sell or pressure to buy any add-ons. The pick up and drop off was smooth and efficient. Very good experience overall

I rented a CX5 and had a great experience from pickup to drop-off. I was assigned a nearly new car, so I had a pleasant drive. I'll definitely use them again next time I visit! Thank you for your friendly service.

The cost of renting a larger car increased because the car I initially reserved was not available, but it turned out to be a good choice.

It was a perfect experience! 😎🥰
No one spoke Korean, but my English was pretty good, so we had a fun time picking up the car while making small talk. 😆🤣
We had a lot of fun chatting about Guam, travelers, and the latest trending golf courses.
The car was absolutely perfect.
It was a pristine Carnival with less than 20,000 kilometers on it. 🤤
It even had Apple CarPlay, so I was able to navigate the car on the huge screen without any issues.
Unusually, I was told to return the car at the airport, so I did.
After returning the car, I gave the key to the office inside the airport, and it was done... 🤔
It's not an airport pickup location, so it's cheaper, but
it's further from the airport than I expected (about a 10-minute walk?). Just keep that in mind~ 🤗🤩
This wasn't mentioned in the reviews or booking details, which was a bit surprising.
There was a deposit of $100, which was refunded approximately 10 days after leaving Guam.

USA Car Rentals: Tips, Tricks & Must-Knows
It won’t be wrong to say that the USA is a whole world in its own. You need many days (or multiple visits) to enjoy the most popular spots here. This Trip.com guide entails all the information you should have on hand when renting a car here:
USA Car Rental Prices Per Day Explained
Renting a car in the USA usually costs around $40-$80 per day for a basic model. If you go for an SUV or something fancier, it can easily hit $100+ a day. Airport rentals are often pricier due to extra fees, so picking up from a city branch might save you some cash. Also, if you're under 25, expect an extra $25 to $35 per day. Booking early and skipping extras like GPS (if you don’t need it) can help keep costs down.
The Cheapest Car Rental Companies in the USA
If you're looking for the cheapest car rental brands in the U.S., Advantage, Fox Rent A Car, and Payless usually have the lowest rates. They keep costs down with fewer locations and no-frills service. If you prefer sticking with bigger names, Enterprise, Thrifty, and Hertz often offer solid deals too.
Plus, they’re easier to find and run frequent discounts. So, it really depends on what matters more to you: saving the most or having more convenience?
What Kind of Cars Do Most People Rent in the U.S.?
In the U.S., mid-size SUVs are the top choice for most renters. Vehicles like the Toyota RAV4, Hyundai Tucson, and Nissan Rogue are go-to options because they offer a great balance. They have roomy interiors, good fuel economy, easy handling, and just the right amount of luggage space. They’re ideal for both everyday driving and longer trips, which makes them especially appealing to families and small groups.
Documents Needed When Renting a Car in the USA
To rent a car in the U.S., bring your passport or ID and original driver’s license (no copies). You must be 18-65 and have held your license for at least 1 year. If you're under 25, expect a young driver fee (around $25/day).
Non-English licenses may require an International Driving Permit. You’ll also need a credit card (chip + embossed, in your name) with enough credit for the rental plus a $1,000 deposit. Some locations reduce it to $200 with proof of return travel. Always carry your Trip.com voucher, printed or digital.
Car Rental Pick-Up Locations in the U.S.
The easiest places to rent a car in the U.S. are major airports like LAX, JFK, Miami, and Chicago O’Hare. This means there are lots of options and a chance of spending longer hours driving on your own. City and neighborhood branches are a solid alternative, often less busy and sometimes cheaper. You’ll find big names like Enterprise, Hertz, and Budget nationwide. One-way rentals are available too, but watch for drop-off fees.
How to Stay Safe and Smart on the US Highways
Driving on U.S. highways is pretty straightforward. Stick to the right lane, use your signals, and give trucks extra space. Speed limits are usually 55 to 75 mph, and speeding is taken seriously. Don’t tailgate, go hands-free with your phone, and watch for slowdowns near cities or construction zones.
Rest stops are great for breaks, and if you're heading into remote areas, fuel up ahead. No big deal if you missed an exit, just grab the next one.
