Recent Harrisburg, PA car rental reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This was my very first time using Turo, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! My host made the entire process so easy, smooth, and stress-free. Communication was great, everything was straightforward, and I felt comfortable throughout the entire rental. I was a little nervous trying something new, but this experience exceeded my expectations! I’m so grateful for such a positive first experience and would absolutely rent from this host again. Highly recommend!
Excellent little car! Very comfortable, easy to drive, phenomenal gas mileage! Host was extremely accommodating and responsive. Definitely will rent from again if business brings me to the area in the future. 10/10
This is the first time using this app and I gotta say I was overly happy with renting this car through Polanco Auto's. It was quick and painless, she was also very quick at responding which made things so much easier. The Kia Forte smelt good and drove smooth! I had to keep extending my trip due to my car being in the shop longer than I thought but that was also easy to do. I highly recommend renting through them. Thank you again!! (:
Brandon was very professional and gave me great detailed instructions, with photos and everything! From getting to the car to unlocking, the ride was smooth and well. I was taking my son to his grandmother it was important that everything went as easy as possible I have no complaints this way, definitely will book another trip using Brandon, Thanks again!
Brandon is extremely communicative and thorough, which makes any trip seamless! I would recommend him 1000 times over!! The car was reliable and effective.

Top tips for renting a car in Harrisburg
Follow these tips for a safe and smooth trip in your car rental (Harrisburg, PA).
What are the road rules and driving conditions in Harrisburg?
Harrisburg has a well-connected road system with easy access to major routes like Interstate 81, Interstate 83, and the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-76). These highways make it simple to get around the city or head out to nearby cities like Hershey, Lancaster, or Gettysburg.
Speed limits are typically around 25-35 mph in residential and urban areas and up to 65–70 mph on highways. Watch for reduced speeds in school zones and construction areas.
During winter, you may encounter snow, sleet, or icy roads, particularly between December and February. Take extra precautions when driving during this period by reducing your speed and keeping a greater distance between your car and the vehicle in front.
What is parking like in Harrisburg?
There's a variety of parking options in downtown Harrisburg, including metered street parking, parking garages, and surface lots (like 7th Street Garage & Surface Lot). Parking is usually metered on most weekdays during working hours, but you can find free on-street parking downtown on evenings and weekends. There's parking near train stations like the Harrisburg Transportation Center (Transitpark along Market Street), and shopping areas like Capital City Mall.
Popular destinations like the Pennsylvania State Capitol Complex, Broad Street Market, and City Island have parking nearby, too.
Just be sure to check signs for any time limits or restrictions to avoid fines.
Are there toll roads in Harrisburg?
Yes, the Pennsylvania Turnpike is a toll road that connects Harrisburg to Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. If your route uses it, plan for tolls along the way.
Are there gas stations and EV chargers in Harrisburg?
Use apps like Google Maps to locate the nearest gas station or charger in Harrisburg, and also to check opening hours.
There are many gas stations around Harrisburg, which you can usually find along major roads like 6th Street and 2nd Street, making quick fuel stops convenient wherever you're headed.
There are also ample EV charging stations (around 80+) within nine miles of Harrisburg (usually at hotels, public parking areas, and shopping malls like The Shoppes at Susquehanna Marketplace).
Do I need to rent a car in Harrisburg?
Renting a car is the best way to get around Harrisburg. While Harrisburg has a bus (Capital Area Transit) and rail service, it can be unreliable. Ride-sharing costs also add up if you plan on making multiple trips in a day.
With your own rental, you'll also have the freedom to visit Hersheypark, Gettysburg National Military Park, or the Amish countryside at your own pace. Why not look for a car on Turo? There are plenty of vehicles to suit all kinds of trips.
