Car Rentals in New Orleans, LA

New Orleans, Louisiana is a lively city overflowing with a history so vibrant, even the cemeteries are considered tourist attractions. Founded in 1718, this city contains some of the oldest structures in the Mississippi River Valley—most of which have been phenomenally preserved or restored. Originally founded by the French, Louisiana was actually ruled by the Spanish for 40 years before the U.S. bought it for pennies on the acre in the Louisiana State Purchase. This cultural mixture had a strong influence on the area that is still very prevalent today and is commonly known and referred to as Creole. In this city, you’ll find a lively blend of authentic old southern cuisine, Spanish traditions, and French architecture. It’s a cultural cocktail that you won’t find anywhere else, served with a rich history evident in every vine-choked balcony and marble tomb.

The Louisiana climate does have a tendency to become unbearable for tourists, so you may want to plan your trip in the spring or the fall if you can. New Orleans summers are long and scorching hot, as opposed to their winters, which are frigid and windy. 

The most popular travel hub is the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport. You’ll find a Budget Car Rental location at the New Orleans airport, on Canal Street, and at many other convenient locations throughout the city. Before you drop in to rent a car in New Orleans, we suggest you reserve your rental car ahead of time to ensure availability and save time at the counter.
