The capital of the Empire State is rich in history, dating back as far as 1686. You might think of presidents and transit, but if you just look a little deeper, you're in for a thrill. From late September through October, take a tour of the historic State Capitol and discover folklore, unexplained phenomena, presidential hauntings, and more... all for free!

Pickup near or at Airports
Booking an Albany car rental and picking it up at the Albany International Airport is only the start of your journey. Whether it's a midsize sport luxury sedan or an electric SUV, your set of wheels unlocks adventure. When you're cruising around Albany, you're going to have to face traffic at some point. With that in mind, here are some tips for renting a car in Albany.
Rush hour happens at the traditional times, with traffic heading east into Albany in the morning and west, away from the city, in the evening. The major areas of Albany restrict speeds to 25 mph on surface streets for safety as part of the Safer Streets initiative, but you'll see higher speed limits on major freeways.
During spring and summer, the roadways are relatively clear. June sees the most rainfall at around 3.7 inches, making it easy to get by with an electric luxury sedan. Wintertime is when you really need to be careful, though. You'll see at least half an inch of snow throughout most of the winter, with the yearly total hitting a whopping 60 inches in downtown Albany. You'll want to make sure that premium SUV gives you AWD or 4WD for the safest drive possible.
Downtown Albany is also host to sports, events, and much more, making traffic denser as you make your way into the city. Keep your eye on your maps and make sure to build in extra time for arrival and parking so you don't miss out on a single free throw at MVP Arena!
There's ample parking throughout the city of Albany. The closer you get to downtown, though, the tougher it can get. Parking prices vary depending on events going on in nearby locations. The good news is you can park your rental car on any of the downtown Albany streets for free after 5 pm!
There are no toll roads within Albany itself. Feel free to hop in your rental car and hit up the New York State Museum or any of the nearby locations and restaurants that make Albany so unique! (That being said, you may need to pay tolls to use the Thruway, which connects the major cities of New York.)
There are plenty of gas stations spread throughout Albany. Most of the gas stations near downtown Albany are located on the outskirts of the area, but like with parking, there are plenty more as you get further away.
Did you pick up an electric SUV? No problem. The Albany Parking Authority supplies EV chargers in all of their garages. Plus, you'll find plenty of charging stations throughout the city, ranging from Tesla Superchargers and ChargeSmart stations to Blink, Electrify, and more!
You can get around some areas of Albany without your own transportation, like downtown. To make the most of your Albany adventure, though, you'll want to take advantage of pick-up service at any of our car rental locations throughout the city. How can you spend time at miSci, hike the gorgeous Thacher State Park, and catch concerts on the Hudson? By renting a car on Turo!

All drivers must have a valid driver’s license and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.
