About Alamo Rent A Car
Choosing a car
The fleet runs from compact city cars to SUVs and seven- or nine-seat people carriers. Manual and automatic models are both offered, which is worth checking if you only drive automatics. For extras, Alamo Gold includes a free GPS, and Alamo Premium in Europe bundles excess protection. Alamo says its vehicles are updated regularly.
Collection and return
Online check-in and Accelerated Check-in cut time at the desk, and self-service kiosks speed up collection. You return the car to the location agreed in the booking. Fuel rules depend on the booking type, so check how much fuel to leave in the tank.
Paying and loyalty
Alamo says its rates are all-inclusive, with no hidden fees, but read what is covered before you pay. Cards accepted are Visa, Mastercard and American Express. Alamo Insiders is a loyalty scheme that gives members a discount on base rates when they choose to pay later. A customer support team can help with changes to a reservation.
