San Antonio favorites
San Antonio can be enjoyed in so many different ways, so take care of the classics and then hit the road to see what else finds you.
It’s popular with tourists for a reason. This pedestrian path is packed with museums, shops, and great spots to eat, drink, and be merry. Start in the Pearl District for the less hectic experience.
It’s always a great time for a dip when the pool is the large sparkling oasis at this free park, which has been luring in swimmers for centuries. Don’t forget your grill to stay all day.
While a historical trip back in time to The Battle of the Alamo may seem hot and overwhelming, the nighttime ghost tour will give you a very different take on the national monument — one you will never forget.

Maybe you need to cool off from the desert heat, maybe you need more city life, or maybe you just want to get lost in nature. Book your San Antonio car rental alternative on Turo and you’ll be right on your way.
A day at the San Marcos river inevitably means tubing. Yes, you can also kayak or swim, but the tube is king. Head northeast about an hour in your San Antonio car rental alternative to get your splash on.
For all the cosmopolitan allure of big city life, make the three-hour drive in your San Antonio car rental alternative and check out the International Space Centre, where space shuttles still call in problems.
It’s a hefty six-hour drive along the Rio Grande in your San Antonio car rental alternative to get to this park, but the remote, mountainous wilderness along the border is stunning and magical.
The Prius was very economical and perfect for my short trip to San Antonio. Comfortable, great on gas, easy to drive, and simple. Hard to beat hybrids on gas mileage. I spent around $5 on gas over a span of 4 days and I drove a good distance around town. I will plan on renting from Saher and his company again when I’m looking for a cheap rental in San Antonio.
Jordan is amazing to work with, and the car is phenomenal. If you’re in the San Antonio and need a car, you’d be pretty unwise going with anybody else!!!
Excellent host and excellent car. Walt went the extra mile to pick us up and drop us off, and the Camry was a very comfortable ride. Would easily rent from Walt again if in San Antonio.
Pete was an amazing host! Excellent car and excellent experience. Will definitely use again when in San Antonio.
Roger was the best. Immaculate service. Very responsive during my 10 day trip to San Antonio.
I will do business with Pete again when visiting the San Antonio area. He was easy to work with and the Tesla Model 3 was a pleasure to pilot.
Great car to get around San Antonio, and Brigitte was a great host! Would rent again 100%!
Very professional and friendly. Quality Cars to ride in. A highlight of my trip to San Antonio
Amazing experience! One of the best Turo rentals in San Antonio. Can't wait to rent again. This car is one of a kind and I would recommend this to any car enthusiast.
Beautiful car and she handles perfectly. Loved this Beamer, would rent again if I'm ever back in San Antonio. Stephen was a great host. Timely communication and awesome customer service. Thanks Stephen!

Rented Peter’s Honda for my second trip to San Antonio. He’s so easy to work with and keeps his car in amazing condition.
The car is nice and comfort, I really enjoyed San Antonio. I highly recommend this car, And Joaquin did a good job giving me all the steps to follow up.
Karlo makes accommodations to make my trip a lot easier! He has very nice well kept cars & the next time I’m in San Antonio I will definitely be renting thru him.
Chad’s vehicle was awesome, served its purpose well and made my stay in San Antonio the best.🤙🏽
A great host and a magnificent car. If you want to drive about downtown San Antonio this is the car to rent.

Date night and outing around San Antonio. Highly recommend this car. Was a sweet ride! Marc was very classy & professional.
This car rocks! Stephen had it spotless for my arrival and was great with communication. Will absolutely rent again the next time I'm in San Antonio.
Moe was a great host, extremely helpful and his response time is immaculate. Anytime I reached out to Moe he responded back immediately. I definitely recommend Moe for anyone near San Antonio.
Family vacation to San Antonio was greatly inhanse do to our Tesla rental. Jason was a great host that respond very quickly to all questions. The car was a outstanding rental. We will rent again from Jason in the future.
I have used Jordan and his Teslas many times now for my business trips, and I will continue to do so because it’s the best Turo experience in San Antonio, guaranteed! Not only are the cars exceptional, but Jordan’s care and personal touch when it comes to the customer service is beyond reproach! Thanks Jordan!
Kevin was very easy to work with and was available on short notice. I’ll definitely rent from Kevin again when I return to San Antonio!
Super smooth trip! This was my first experience with Turo and Sameer was a great owner/operater to work with for my first trip! Pickup and drop-off was exceptionally fast and simplified. On my last trip to San Antonio I rented through a well-known, national car rental agency, and had an awful customer service experience! This trip with Sameer was the exact opposite! After this Turo experience and working with Sameer, I am never renting from a conventional rental car agency ever again!
Roger was great. The car was so clean and drove smooth. He even provided Lysol spray. I was a few minutes late but he was so understanding ! I would rent again when I come to San Antonio! Thank you !
Easy to book. Seamless pick up and drop off. Had an emergency the last few hours and Saher was very responsive. I actually recommended his services to my job that has corporate visiting often in San Antonio. Thank you!
Eli was outstanding! The optima was truly optimal and optimized my time here. I would use Eli again for any future trip to the San Antonio area.
Great trip and was easy to rent the vehicle from Saher. The Volvo S60 was clean and in good working order. Made a great vehicle for our vacation. If I’m ever back in San Antonio I would rent from him again!
Mashali was extremely kind and communicative. Everything was perfect with the car and next time I’m in San Antonio, I will be trying to book with her again.
Rented with Cody to visit a loved one in San Antonio and he was quick to answer and he made it very easy to pickup and return the car! Will be renting from him again!
Host was great and easy to work with. Car I really well taken care of and a great car to drive in the San Antonio weather. Would definitely recommend and would use this host/car again!
Very great communication and flexible with availability. The car was clean and in proper condition. Miguel was supper nice and very helpful. Highly recommend for any visit to San Antonio :)
Great host, very informative and communicative, helped him figure out places to go while in San Antonio very personable host. Will book again with Diego!
Great car! Kevin is a phenomenal host, he made everything super quick and easy. I highly recommend booking with him if you’re ever needing a ride in San Antonio. Thanks again Kevin!!
Excellent experience! Paul was great to talk to and very responsive. The car was pristine and the phone mount was a very helpful addition. I will definitely rent from Paul again the next time I am in San Antonio.
Probably the best value car in San Antonio Good on gas mileage. Host is super understandable and quickly communicates. The only issue I had with the car is the AC isnt as strong as I would like. Driving in the hottest part of the day makes it tough
Jason is a great host very attentive and made sure our trip went smooth. The access to the car was very easy, car was very clean. Also made sure that we wouldn’t forget to charge up. Would definitely rent again whenever I come back to San Antonio ❤️
Julio made my first exprience with TURO great! Coming from The Netherlands, I needed a car for one day in San Antonio and I found Julio. He was very helpful and flexible. It was a pleasure to rent his car!
Joaquin was extremely well to work with. Had a great experience and would definitely rent from him again when we are in San Antonio again. The process was easy and we were able to extend the vehicle rental with ease. Thanks Joaquin!
Igor has very easy instructions to follow when delivered to the airport. The car got us from point A to point B easily and he was kind enough to let us extend our rental time the day we had to return it. Simple and safe car to have when you visit San Antonio!
Renting Scott's Corolla was a great part of my trip to San Antonio. I was able to pick up the car in Long Term Parking at my own pace once arriving to the airport, and walked through the check-in process and pictures as prompted by the Turo app. It was super convenient and easy enough to learn on my first time using this service. Scott was great about connecting with me over the phone for instructions/tips before I arrived in San Antonio, and communicating about check-out procedure. The car ran nicely and worked for me. If I'm back in the area soon, I will definitely look to book with Scott again!
Greg was great to deal with! He gave us reminders about check in and check out which were helpful and he gave us an incredible recommendation for places to eat! This was our first time using Turo and after this experience we’ll never go back to regular rental cars.
Sameer was an amazing host. Car was perfect and he was always quick to respond. Sameer was able to accommodate many changes in plans at the last minute. Best rental experience ever. Thanks for everything, Sameer!
Second time using Turo and again great experience with Karlo definitely our go to for rental cars from now on. Thanks again Karlo
Daniel was very punctual, accommodating, and his car was great! It was a big hit with our family and the few friends of ours that were able to ride in his car as well. I’ll keep his info for next trip to San Antonio. Thanks again Daniel!
Chris did a great job communicating with me about drop off and pick up as well. The Model 3 is a great car and we put about 400 miles on it in 3 days--very fun to drive. It really made our trip to San Antonio enjoyable.
Mani is very friendly and makes for a great host in this type of platform. Thank you again Mani. I will reach out to you again on future visits to san Antonio.
Karol was amazing, and extremely flexible and understanding. He gave many suggestions on things to see and do around the city, and helped make the trip a little better. The car was amazing, clean, and very fun! I’ll definitely will be using him next time I’m in San Antonio!
We traveled through several small towns between San Antonio and Forth Worth. The overhead covering made all the difference to protect us from the sun and the front shield protected us from the wind and bugs. The storage compartments are actually bigger than anticipated and our light packing allowed plenty of space for shopping bags to fit nicely. It was the best rental experience ever. We truly enjoyed every minute of the slingshot rental and will definitely we renting it again soon! We loved it. Thank you! Worth every penny.
The car is a really smooth enjoyable ride and Stephen was super nice, if I ever need to a rental I’ll definitely go to him!
Ivan is a gentleman, excellent host and very accessible. He helped me a lot through the rental process and vehicle was in great conditions. I definitely recommend him as a car host.
Great Business Man to rent good quality vehicles from and affordable prices. Kind at heart and very understandable. This is where I've rented the last rentals through and I will continue going to Saher until I'm able to find me a vehicle in me and my family budget..
Better than I could've ever expected. Clean, fast, fun. I felt like a god in this thing. Seriously, nothing can touch you. Put the top down and just drive. I always heard the 911 was the best car ever made. Turns out it is. Hard to stop myself from renting again.
This was my first time using TURO and it has been a wonderful experience. Saher's location was perfect ... short Uber from San Antonio airport. They respond very quickly and are very friendly and convenient to do business with.
Best car rental place I’ve ever dealt with, very flexible great communicator by far the best customer service I’ve received from any rental place.
Perfect trip. Would recommend host and car without reservation. Jordan was in constant contact and left the car for me at airport valet which was awesome. Literally had the keys in 30 seconds after walking out of baggage claim. Very easy all around. Car was clean and in felt new. Highly recommend Model 3 Performance for San Antonio. Also no problem finding super chargers in the area.
Moe was excellent, I suggest everyone to rent a car from Moe. I know who to come to next time. Locked in 🔒 thank you
This Audi A3 was the perfect touch to my vacation out here in the San Antonio area. It is a very sharp car that I think anybody can respect. One of the best parts other than the way it looks is that Chad gives you 200 miles a day to drive before you start getting charged, which for me was more than enough. If you want a super flu whip to drive around in that is affordable and slick, this is definitely the one.
Thank you Saher for making my trip back to San Antonio super easy and for you being so amazing and helpful! Pick up was easy! Close to the airport, Saher was SUPER easy to get a hold of if any problems or changes on plans and he’s very flexible if you need to change things around! Will definitely be renting for him when I come back next month! Thank you again!
Alex is very nice and accommodating. Nice trip. Nice car. Runs well and really good on gas! Highly recommend.
Beautifl car, new, super clean, loaded with every comfort you can ask for. Stephen was easy to communicate with and made the whole pick up and drop off a breeze. Willd efinitely rent from him again of I need to and reccomend him to anyone else who needs a car.
Just rented for a few hours but Stephen made sure to have everything in place. Car looks better in person!
Communication with Clay was excellent and the car is exactly as described. I would definitely rent from Clay again.
Tin was very accommodating and extremely helpful. The car was clean and looking sharp. I will definitely be renting again!
Car was fantastic and Marc was very accommodating, would definitely recommend renting from him!
Great rental company. Very understanding . This is my 10th time coming to there. I recommend anyone to rent there vehicles
madhu's car is very good on gas. And a very clean and reliable car. I recommend anyone to rent with him.
Very accommodating host and an amazing car, would definitely recommend renting from Ivan anytime you're looking for a clean, fun, well maintained car!
Emmanuel is very attentive and answered my messages right away. The car is in great condition and good on gas. Would def rent again.
Peter is awesome and his car is perfect. Brand new and clean. Peter was super flexible when I found out my work trip was shortened by a day and he was ok with me shortening the trip by a day (which he didn’t have to do per the Turo rules)...he’s just super nice and understanding. I’ll definitely be using his car again anytime I need to travel out of San Antonio.
Karlo went above and beyond to ensure that I had everything I needed in my trip. He was very flexible and was willing to work with me when my trip started late unexpectedly. Karlo has great communication and always got back to me in a expedient time. I recommend using any of Karlo’s vehicles if you find yourself in the San Antonio area.
Stephen was great to work with! This was our first time using Turo and he made the whole process very simple and stress-free. The car is amazing, from the time you hit the start button you can't stop smiling. It was very well kept, clean inside and out. Would highly recommend Stephen and the jag if your in the San Antonio area!
Great working with Saher. Made sure I was taken care of with the vehicle. Communicated all the way through pick up and informed me how easy it would be for drop off. Great service will definitely do business with him and his company again because of how often I travel to San Antonio. Thank you sir for all the help!
Marc was incredibly friendly and willing to help with any and all aspects of the car rental. I highly recommend renting from Marc!
Cody made it so easy to pick up and drop off his car! He is super fast at responding especially when I booked his car an hour before I wanted to pick it up. I was able to use his car for Veterans Day weekend and I had no problems with it. Super great on gas and a good size for strolling around San Antonio. Highly recommend!!
This trip was perfect! Communication with Roy was timely and accurate. Pick/return process was a breeze. He and his co-hosts are very friendly. The Mustang was a dream!!!! From the bright red color to the drop top, this was a great ride. Good visibility, easy handling, responsive steering, great acceleration, and tight brakes made cruising around San Antonio a joy!!! Hands down 10/10!
Paul is amazing host. He picked me up at the airport as soon as I landed no wait time. The car was in amazing condition, very clean car inside and out. Paul is a very good host and can answer most questions you have about the app and how everything works. I will be using him again if I come back to San Antonio
Very understanding and easy to work with! Saher is the best! We will return in the future!
Car was awesome! Jordan is an amazing host! It was super clean inside and out; the experience driving a Tesla was excellent.
