Celebrate in Mobile

Nicknamed “the Paris of the South,” Mobile is a coastal town like no other — steeped in history, culture, and festivities. Founded by French settlers in 1702, it’s known for its long Carnival tradition, the oldest in the U.S. As a port city, it quickly became a melting pot of cultures, flavors, and traditions.

Today, Mobile is still a colorful place where you can enjoy soulful music, authentic eats, and old-fashioned Southern hospitality.

Dig into history and culture in this charming port city.

USS Alabama

A visit to this WWII-era battleship includes more than just the ship. As well as exploring the “Mighty A,” you can see the USS Drum submarine and Medal of Honor Aircraft Pavilion, as well as tanks, artillery, statues, and war memorials.

Mobile Carnival Museum

When you say Mardi Gras, most people think of New Orleans. But Mobile is actually the site of the oldest organized Mardi Gras celebration in the nation. Marvel at costumes, floats, and photos of historic Mardi Gras celebrations at the Carnival Museum.

Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception

In 1703, the first Catholic Parish on the Gulf coast was founded in Mobile. Today, the Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception carries on that tradition. This historic cathedral, built in the late 1800s, features stunning stained glass windows and an impressive organ.

New Orleans

If Mobile leaves you wanting more Carnival, why not make the two-hour trip to New Orleans? Even if you’re not there for Mardi Gras, New Orleans is full of festive sights and sounds, from live music to mouthwatering cuisine.

Gulf Islands National Seashore

White beaches, emerald waters, and picturesque marshlands draw millions of visitors to Gulf Islands National Seashore every year. Whether you’re into boating, biking, hiking, snorkeling, or birdwatching, you can find it all (and more!) at this beautiful national park.

Dauphin Island

Another relaxing beach destination is Dauphin Island, a bird sanctuary and one of the best places in North America to watch spring bird migrations. It’s also a fun place to kayak, fish, or explore walking trails surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico.

Airport pickup made easy

Skip the rental car counter — easy pickup offered by hosts at hundreds of airports across the US, UK, Canada, France, and Australia.

Parking lot pickup & return

Rather than hustling at the busy terminal curbside, take your time picking up the car at approved parking lots or garages. Check in, load up your luggage, and get comfortable with the car without a big rush.

Parking & airport fees

When picking up at some airports, you may be charged an airport fee according to the agreements in place with the airport. Parking fees are not covered by Turo — communicate with your host to confirm their process.

Free cancellation

Cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts, unless you opt to receive a non-refundable trip discount when you book. Because life happens and it helps to be flexible when it does.

Best Mobile driving roads

Purple squiggle

Avenue of the Oaks

Off Old Shell Rd at Spring Hill College, this short but gorgeous path winds through a tunnel of historic oaks. Park across the street, then, after walking the half-mile avenue, jump back in your car and drive through this beautiful neighborhood by taking Wimbledon to Hillwood to Country Club.

Alabama’s Coastal Connection

For a longer drive, but one with scenic Gulf views, head toward Orange Beach and turn off the Foley Beach Express onto Alabama’s Coastal Connection. This road takes you past a bay, bayou, creek, and lake as it navigates the Gulf Coast. Stop along the way for amazing seafood.

Route 98 to Pensacola

Drive along the forgotten coast from Mobile, AL to Pensacola, FL. Along the way, you’ll catch beautiful views of Florida’s upper coast and old towns, and you’ll pass plenty of great oyster bars and seafood restaurants.

Frequently asked questions in Mobile

To rent a car on Turo, you must create a Turo account, have a valid driver’s license, get approved to drive on Turo, and be 18 years old or older in the US, 21 years old or older in Australia, or 23 years old or older in Canada.

In the UK, you must be 21 years old or older and have held a UK or EU license for at least one year, or another driver’s license for at least two years.

Do I need my own insurance?

No, you don’t need personal insurance coverage to rent a car on Turo.

In the US, any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your Turo protection plan. When booking a car in the US, you’ll choose between three protection plans — Premier (eligibility requirements apply), Standard, or Minimum — to get the level of protection that’s right for you. On each trip, you’re covered with third-party automobile liability insurance provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company.*

In New York state, you’ll also choose between Premier (if available), Standard, or Minimum. With each plan, you’re covered with liability insurance of $1,250,000.* Protection plans for New York trips also include access to roadside assistance, priority phone support, and 24/7 customer assistance.

Are there discounts on weekly or monthly trips?

Yes, many Turo hosts offer discounted prices when you book trips lasting 3+, 7+, or 30+ days, so you can get the best deals and lowest rates possible by booking longer trips.

See more about promotions & discounts

What types of cars can I book in Mobile?

Browse a wide selection of vehicles for all kinds of occasions and budgets on Turo. Find a full-size SUV for a family road trip, a pickup truck for some errands, or a sporty convertible for a special night out in Mobile. For the lowest prices, use the “budget-friendly” filter to browse economy vehicles.

How can I drive unlimited miles during my trip to Mobile?

Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit. On the vehicle pages, you’ll see the total miles or kilometres you’re allowed to drive under the heading “Distance included.” You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the “Unlimited distance” filter.

What payment methods does Turo accept?

Turo accepts most credit cards issued by major financial institutions, including American Express and Discover cards, as well as debit cards with a Visa or Mastercard logo that are linked to a checking account.

Apple Pay and Google Pay on mobile devices are also accepted, but Turo does not accept cash or checks as valid payment methods.

What is the cancellation policy for guests on Turo?

You can cancel and get a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts, unless you opt to receive a non-refundable trip discount when you book. If you book a trip with less than 24 hours’ notice, you have one hour after booking to cancel free of charge. If you cancel after the free cancellation period ends, you will be charged a cancellation fee.

In the rare event a host cancels, you’ll be notified immediately so you can book another car, or we’ll help you find one. Your refund can be temporarily held to expedite rebooking, or the funds can be returned to your bank account — your choice.

What are the cleaning and safety policies on Turo?

Under the enhanced cleaning policy, hosts are required to clean and disinfect their vehicles thoroughly before every trip, so you can feel safe and comfortable behind the wheel. Turo hosts have access to training materials on enhanced cleaning practices, using the latest recommendations compiled from the CDC, EPA, WHO, and vehicle detailing experts, to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Is Turo a rental car company?

No. Unlike rental car companies, Turo is a peer-to-peer car sharing marketplace where you can book directly from trusted local car owners in the US, Canada, and the UK. Turo does not own any vehicles — Turo hosts share their own personal cars and set their own prices, discounts, vehicle availability, and delivery options.

Are there cars available near the Mobile airport?

Yes, there are hundreds of cars available on Turo at locations near the Mobile airport. After arriving at the Mobile Regional Airport (MOB), Mobile Downtown Airport, or Gulfport Biloxi International Airport, skip the rental counter at 8400 Airport Blvd and have your car delivered for pick-up and dropoff at your Mobile hotel or the address of your vacation rental to save time and hassle.

Is there a fee to add additional drivers to my trip?

There is no fee or additional charge for adding a driver to your trip on Turo. Only the guest who booked the trip (primary driver) can request to add drivers; Turo hosts cannot do it for you. We encourage you to request to add authorized drivers before your trip starts, though guests in the US and Canada can request to add a driver while a trip is in progress with no extra charges.

To speed up the process, have your additional driver create a Turo account and get approved to drive before you request to add them. 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.

What’s the best way to get to the Mobile Regional Airport?

The best and most convenient way to get to and from the Mobile Regional Airport is by booking a car on Turo, so you can travel back and forth on your own time. The Mobile Regional Airport is about a 30-minute drive from downtown Mobile, and the easiest way to get there is via Zeigler Blvd. The newer Mobile Downtown Airport is more centrally located.
