Top rated cars in Baltimore, MD
Once a working-class port town, Baltimore has more than earned its nickname Charm City. Teeming with quaint streets and picturesque harbors, it also houses countless museums, a plethora of historic buildings, and two famous ballparks.
But while there’s plenty to see, take your time to appreciate Baltimore’s trendy restaurants and windy harbor views. Stroll through expansive Patterson Park, get lost in the National Aquarium’s coral reef, and snag a delicious crab cake at the iconic Inner Harbor.
There’s no shortage of seaside attractions, historic landmarks, and old-world charm in Baltimore.
Stroll through shark alley, explore a replicated coral reef, and view more than 700 species of water-loving creatures at the National Aquarium — one of Maryland’s largest tourist attractions and a lovely visit any time of the year.
During the War of 1812, American soldiers’ valiant fight to defend Baltimore inspired Francis Scott Key to pen the “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Today, you can visit the birthplace of the United States’ National Anthem, now a museum and monument.
Whether you’re an Orioles or Ravens fan, Baltimore is the perfect place to take in an old-school game of baseball. The Camden Yards Sports Complex houses both the Ravens Stadium and Oriole Park, which is renowned as one of the most beautiful Major League ballparks.

Baltimore is a bustling city with enough entertainment to last a lifetime. But if you’re curious what else the region has to offer, you may find a day trip well worth the effort. Within a few hours’ drive are iconic sites like the nation’s capital, George Washington’s Virginia home, and Amish country. You’ll also find vineyards, coastal towns, and state parks within easy travel distance.
Book the perfect carWhile you’ll definitely need more than a day to see all of Washington, America’s capital is a convenient hour’s drive away from Baltimore. Stroll along the Capitol Mall, hit up the Smithsonians, and ride to the top of the Washington Monument for a history-making day.
Alexandria is a mecca for lovers of American history. Among the city’s colonial homes and museums are George Washington’s Mount Vernon, the Carlyle Mansion, and the Stabler-Leadbeater Apothecary Museum. Once you’ve had your fill of museums, stroll along the harbor and grab some frozen custard.
Rolling farmlands, white barns, and horse-drawn buggies — the Amish town of Lancaster is a peaceful paradise. Tour a 19th-century farm, complete with a schoolhouse and blacksmith’s shop; then pick up baked goods at the Lancaster Central Market, in business since 1730.

This was such a life saver with all the rental companies being egregiously more expensive. Michael was very kind, communicative and the vehicle was ready to go.
Rent from here!!!! I had to come home for unfortunate circumstances and throughout the whole process DMV Bros were there and gave plenty of reassurance. The car was GREAT on gas especially given the high gas prices, drove smooth and I was able to pick up and return the car easily. I’ll be back next month but if given the chance and opportunity I’d definitely rent again or recommend them to someone else!
Truck was Beautiful. Rode well and held 5 big men comfortably (2 front, 2 middle, 1 3rd row), with 5 bags of luggage in the rear. Smooth ride, XM radio, heated seats, handles well, and was classy. My friends were complaining about a pricey one day rental before we left, but afterwards they said it was worth every dime. I told them to stop renting from the big name rental companies and start using Turo because they have people like Bradford that will make sure you're taken care of. Great 5 Star Experience.
Chikita is great to deal with. The Pathfinder is a very nice truck...even has 3 rows seats BUT was very expensive to fill with gas prices so high. Only issue was truck was not cleaned, there was an orange, a dirty cloth and even an used fake eyelash under passenger seat.
Very nice to have a no-hassle rental process when traveling. In addition, I missed a step in the process but the owner worked with me and it was easily resolved. The car was clean and just what we needed during our trip to the east coast.
We loved the Chevy Equinox it's defently spacious and conftable communications with Bruce was on point very friendly and will answer all.your questions I defently will be using this app for many of my future trips so much better then regular car rental companies Thank you Bruce for letting us use your suv hope the 2 Large umbrellas we left for you will help for rainy days .
So easy. Shuttle to daily parking. Pick up car in lot with a lock box. Pay parking of $10 and off we went. Way easier than regular car rental. Return just as easy.
The Haidara family was absolutely amazing through the entire rental process. Great communication and the easy of renting a car from them is so much greater than going through a rental company, from pickup to drop off. I would also suggest for anyone to rent their Range Rover. They keep it in immaculate condition and is by far the best car I have ever driven.
My rental experience with Israel was tremendous! The original purpose of my visit to DC quickly changed as life situations escalated resulting in last minute travel adjustments. I ended up flying into town sooner. That wrinkle presented issues that had me contemplating canceling my car reservations altogether. I reached out to Israel, who's very timely & responsive with communications, to explain & inquire about options. His willingness to be flexible by graciously accommodating my needs puts him at the top of my Turo rental experiences. In addition to providing a very clean SUV, his agreement includes generous mileage; which I prefer to have when visiting family in the country. They are not close to anythjng "major". I used to own a Murano & was looking fwrd to driving one again. This one has many bells & whistles I didn't have time to explore. Pickup & drop off were both a breeze. We'll be heading back to DC shortly. I'm crossing my fingers in hopes that Israel's vehicle will be available!
Marie was great! I recommend renting from her she is super friendly and professional. The car was very nice. She even had hand sanitizer, phone charges, and a ice cold drink for me when I picked up the car. Great experience I will certainly be reaching back out to her next time I am in the Baltimore area for a rental!
Great ride, plus Alex is wonderful to work with. After my flight was canceled Alex worked with me to extend the reservation and agreed to pick up the vehicle from a different airport. Thanks Alex!
Great car! Easy communication. Smooth rental transition. I would recommend renting Sola's vehicle to anyone and will rent from him again myself when I return to Baltimore!
So grateful to Elias for making this car rental process smooth and easy! Car was a great accommodation for our family if 4 and pick up and drop off could not have been easier. If you’re going to MD, rent this car.
Excellent host and beautiful Car. Excellent communication. He was flexible with the pick up time and responded to text messages in a tely manner.
Tony was just good with his communication. The car was clean, smelled good, and had a nice ride! If we’re ever back in Baltimore, we’ll definitely rent this vehicle again! Thank you Tony!
Seamless experience! Oscar and his son were wonderful to work with. Definitely recommend this vehicle for a family and or anyone looking for a reliable fun ride in the Baltimore area.
Easy, fast, simple pick up; great, clean car; convenient drop off! Simply put, 100% recommend and will use again in the Baltimore/Annapolis area
Would highly recommend renting through Michelle. Trip was easy and pick up and drop off were easy
This was my first experience with Turo and I’m glad that it was introduced with Brian. I truly appreciate how convenient he made my transaction. I know I would have never received this level of service had it been done with the more branded providers. I’m not a fan of the Baltimore traffic but I am a fan of Brian and his team. Thanks for making this an enjoyable and stress free experience.
Ben was wonderful to work with, he answered all of my messages promptly and with wonderful professionalism. The Bronco was a lot of fun to drive and almost made me want one of my own. If I need to rent again in the future, Ben's Auto Rentals will probably be the first place I look.
Best host ever. This is a very beautiful car. Take my word for it. Host is very great with communication and accommodations. Definitely renting the car again
Car drove great, was clean, easy to find, great communication from host. Will definitely use them again when I am in Baltimore. Thanks Krowne!!!
The entire team was amazing! The car initially reserved had an issue and they replaced the rental with a similar vehicle immediately to avoid me having to wait. I will definitely rent a car from them again!!
Fantastic host with peculiar communication. When we return we will be doing business with Eric. All around 11/10 highly recommend. Overall - kind, courteous, and professional. We thank you kindly Eric for allowing us to use your well kept and beautiful vehicle during our stay in Baltimore MD.
Amazing Ride! Very obsessed with this Jeep! Ashan was amazing and so very helpful in making this trip as easy as possible. Will deff be coming back and renting another one of his vehicles!!
Damien's great, and his car is great! He's very responsive to messages and really takes care of the car. Felt like I took the car off a dealer lot. I would definitely rent from him again the next time we come back.
First of all amazing car. Kevin made my birthday road trip amazing and I cannot wait to book with him again. Thanks for making my first time renting on turo amazing!!!
The trip was great! The Explorer is in great shape, drives well, and Jack is on top of communication. He was super accommodating with both our arrival and check-out and would highly recommend to anyone considering renting from Jack!!
She was amazing! She met us at the airport and helped me in meeting where I was since I don’t know my way around since it’s the first time I landed at the airport. Was on time every time and very professional! Thanks for the great experience! I’ll be using you again when I’m in Baltimore
We place an order for Tesla model X over a year ago and will be getting delivery in about a week. But all the Tesla dealers around do not have one available to test drive. We rented the model X To determine if it’s worthwhile for us to take delivery. Ben was very good on communication and very prompt to answer any questions.
I’m so glad I booked with Turo and found this wonderful ride for my trip. This 7 passenger SUV was everything and then some. It was affordable, clean, smooth driving, and most importantly, fuel efficient. I had a mishap during my trip with the vehicle (probably my fault 🤷🏽♀️). I called Chikita around 9pm and he picked right up. I was impressed and that’s what you call great customer service. The check in and check out process was easy breezy and the receptionist (a young lady, can’t remember her name) where I picked the car up from was A1 as well. I will be booking with Chikita again.
Mr Ge, first is a very nice man. Very flexible. This was my first time using Turo so I wasn’t sure what to expect. After making my reservation pretty early, we reconnected a couple of days before my trip. He met me at baggage claim with the car, gave me the keys, and done! Very easy. The car was in good shape, was realizable and great for me as I had to do Costco runs etc as I have a second home there in Maryland. I also extended the trip by 8 days which was also very simple. The return was easy as well. One word of advice, when you return to BWI use the above ground parking as I had no cell signal and wasn’t able to meet or tell him where the car was until I got in the terminal. He was very understanding and I would definitely rent from him again!
This was my first Experience with Turo. It could not have been any easier. Michael’s car was great, perfectly clean and just as described. He walked me through how to find the car and where to park it. It was crazy easy. I will be seeking out Michael’s car again when I return to Baltimore.
Sarita was terrific to rent from! This was my first experience with Turo and I will never use a corporate rental company again. The process was super easy and the car was clean and well maintained. Sarita communicated well and very understanding when I was running almost an hour late when turning in the car. If I could rate more than 5 stars, I would!
Great car, you can tell it was well taken care of. Host was super accommodating and on time for both drop off and pick up. Would definitely recommend this rental!
THE best host you will find on Turo. Easy to communicate, immaculate car, sharp on time for pick up and return. They will work with you in case you need a special request! I had to change the return Airport because a change in my flight, they work great with all the changes Thanks Oscar looking forward to rent again
Pickup was smooth. Car got great gas mileage 30+ the whole trip. Was enough room for my family of four and luggage for a week trip to Florida. Definitely recommend.
Connie delivered the car to me at the airport, and was in constant contact with me to get it to me quickly. Dropping off was just as smooth. This was my first experience with Turo, and it could not have gone better! Bye-bye rental car counter! Highly recommend Connie!
I was travelling alone for the first time in my life and needed to rent a car I felt comfortable driving in adverse weather conditions. Not happy after talking with several rental car agencies, I came across turo.com. Not only did I find the vehicle I was looking for, but it was also less costly than a rental agency. Icing on the cake was host Aman and his wife. He suggested another similar vehicle that saved me even more money and it was exactly what I needed. The car was delivered to me right outside baggage claim at the airport and drop off was just as easy. Aman stayed in touch during my month-long rental and was very patient with my questions...returning calls/texts within minutes. I am over the moon with my experience and will most definitely be using this service again! Thank you, Aman.🤗
This car was perfect for a 2 month stay near the NIH. It’s big enough for a family and bags but small enough to easily park. It was affordable, spotless, everything worked well, and it ran smoothly. The host was friendly and helpful in pick up and drop off at the airport. Thank you!
1st time using Turo and best Host EVER!. MADE prom for my Son and his date a very magical night for them. The Vehicle is definitely a head turner. The host is very attentive and polite. Answer your questions both on app messenger and in person with confidence. Being our 1st trip on Turo and Vehicle rental it made myself and my wife decided we will be renting from Grand again very soon in the future and on Turo again. The hassle free worry is a relief because we are using another person's vehicle but with turo and the host it made it easier to be worry free. I will definitely add pictures of their night very soon.. Thank you Grand Money.
the jeep arrived super clean and was a smooth ride. i booked for a short out of town trip—ray delivered and picked up the car to me on time for which helped make my trip a breeze!
The SUV was in like-new condition and looks even better than the photos. Esse was extremely responsive and accommodating to our request for parking. Renting a turo from him was much more convenient than rental from enterprise at bwi.
The Honda Pilot is well maintained and clean. We filled it with people and luggage. Our trip was fantastic. Joy is knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I will seek her out next time I need a vehicle.
Keyonia was a fantastic host. A great communicator and very accommodating! Nice clean car too. She’ll be my go-to on future trips!
Perfect way to rent out a car . Great location to get it from nice people . I recommend anyone to to try Turo
Peter was awesome! Very accommodating with great service. I will rent from Peter again when I return
Michael was extremely responsive and considerate. The car was great and was exactly as described. It made our trip so much fun
Oscar was very responsive and helpful when my flight was slightly delayed. The car was clean and fun to drive. I would definitely rent this car and with Oscar again!
First time renter on Turo and the experience was great. The host was more than accommodating on a short notice request. Car was clean and drove great. I would rent again!
Great host and roomy, clean car! It was all so easy! Will be looking to rent from Byron again next time we're in the area.
Great service communication and really nice car. We were here for family wedding able to get to all our venues on time in style !!
Brian was fantastic and the car was exceptionally clean. This was my first time using Turo and had a great experience. This is my new way of renting cars.
Car was clean and as advertised- was a great ride! Kurd was a great host and was very attentive. Will rent again next time we are in Bmore!
Clean car and LaFawn delivered on time at BWI. Made our trip smooth and easy having a large reliable easy to drive car for a weekend full of lacrosse! I’ll be using him again!

Harford Road stretches from Baltimore’s Old Town area up past Gunpowder Falls State Park, which is a nice escape from the city. The part of Harford Road in Old Town is one of Maryland’s oldest streets, but don’t worry: it’s a smooth, easy drive.
For a beautiful scenic drive, take Falls Road northeast from downtown Baltimore. This 39-mile route alternates between valley landscapes and starry cityscapes. As you leave the city behind, keep an eye out for old grist and cotton mills, many of which are now galleries, shops, and homes.
This 100-mile drive tells the story of the War of 1812 through historic sites like Patterson Park, Federal Hill, Fort McHenry, and Fell’s Point. At each stop, you’ll learn about the events of the summer of 1814, when Baltimore’s citizens defended their town against the British.
