Great overall experience. There are not many unlimited miles options at a reasonable price. Based off of the age of car, location, car features and price I believe this is one of the best deals on Turo. The rental process went smooth from pickup to drop off. Matias took time to make sure all my accommodations were met. I would rent again in a heartbeat.

We had an excellent experience renting this minivan. The vehicle was very clean, both inside and out, and it was extremely comfortable to drive and ride in, making our trip much more enjoyable. A special thanks to Ish, who was very accommodating, friendly, and easy to deal with throughout the rental process. Communication was smooth, and everything was well organized. One of the biggest highlights was that the minivan is a hybrid. Fuel consumption was surprisingly low, which helped us save a lot on gas during our trip. It was great to have a spacious family vehicle without worrying about high fuel costs. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, fuel-efficient vehicle and outstanding customer service!

As a dedicated minister to the faith, I must be honest. My honest take of this trip I recently took overall is good. That is not without issues, of course concerning the trip overall. Categories as far as the reservation and concerning the car being clean before I used it would be the only categories where I had experienced anything less than great. With that said, the host still worked with me through each of those circumstances offering me different rentals and as well being fair in regards to charges on the account. He worked through all of these things with me. Aside from that, the vehicle drove well and had a great deal of space that I needed for the family. It's mechanical operation did not cause any worry during the trip with the newer oddessy. The hosts work through all things that came up the entire trip even at some points when it was late. Unfortunately the vehicle did smell of smoke and I had to clean it myself with wiping it down. So getting past that was the biggest part of my rental but once I did that the rental itself overall was still great. This rental isn't one of the cheapest rentals out there, but it's definitely worth the money. When you consider the room you get the decent mechanical operation of the vehicle and reliability. If I had to go out of state, I would choose this vehicle again. I would of course communicate with the owner. As for making sure it is clean and up to standard on our next rental, I might even rent it a few hours early just in case we have to deal with such a thing. But aside from that it was a great experience overall. Thanks again for being One of the good host on turro..

Fantastic rental experience! This Honda Odyssey was exactly what we needed for our trip. It comfortably accommodated all five of us with plenty of room for passengers and luggage. The unlimited miles were a huge bonus and gave us the flexibility to explore without worrying about mileage restrictions. The van was clean, reliable, and drove great throughout our entire trip. On top of that, the price was very reasonable and offered excellent value. We would absolutely rent this vehicle again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a spacious and dependable ride!

Our experience with Luciano was simply outstanding from start to finish! We received excellent service throughout the entire rental process. Luciano was always attentive, professional, honest, and extremely helpful. From the very first contact, he made us feel confident and well taken care of. The car completely exceeded all of our expectations. It was extremely comfortable, spotless, reliable, fuel-efficient, and very enjoyable to drive. Without a doubt, it played a huge role in making our trip across the United States such a success. It gave us the freedom, comfort, and peace of mind to fully enjoy every moment of our trip. Honestly, without this car and Luciano’s outstanding support, our experience would not have been the same. Everything was exactly as described — actually, even better than expected. I highly recommend Luciano to anyone looking for a high-quality vehicle and truly exceptional customer service. We will definitely rent from him again on our next trip. Thank you so much, Luciano, for the amazing service and for making our family trip even more special

It drove smoothly, had plenty of space for passengers and luggage, and was perfect for our trip.

We had a great experience renting a mini van from Ryan. He was very responsive and clearly answered all of my questions before our trip and had accurate and easy instructions to follow once it was time for our reservation. I was traveling alone with 3 kids and it was still easy to manage the pick up and drop off. The shuttle was located right outside of baggage claim, we only had to wait a couple of minutes for it to come and the drive to the parking lot was probably less than 5 minutes away. Quick and easy and I greatly preferred it to having to wait and deal with a car rental agency. The car was in great shape, clean and had no smell or added scent to it which was appreciated.

This van was perfect. super good on mileage, even when i was hauling things in it. the ev hybrid aspect also helped save on gas. it was comfortable on longer drives, and it was pretty reasonable on the price given all the features only negative i can think of is the air freshener smelled terrible and was really strong when i picked the car up. it smelled like stale weed and cheap cologne lol. but i think someone had smoked in there before me, so not much the owner could do about that. maybe a professional cleaning when someone smokes in the car. that's what the smoking penalty fee is for, right??? would highly recommend overall. great rental

The car itself was great, clean, spacious, and comfortable enough for our group of 5 adults and 2 kids. It worked perfectly during the 5 days we rented it, and the host was responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the trip. The only downside was the pickup and drop-off experience. The pickup location, Sunrise Parking near LAX, was inconvenient. We had to wait around 45 minutes for the shuttle to pick us up after arrival. Returning the car was even more frustrating. The staff at the front gate told me it would be at least a 30-minute wait for the next shuttle and suggested I walk back to the airport instead. I ended up walking about 15 minutes, which fortunately worked out because I had already dropped off my family and luggage beforehand and had enough time before my flight. Otherwise, this could have caused a major issue. I’m leaving a 5-star rating because the car and host delivered a great experience. However, Turo should address the transportation issues related to this pickup location, as it impacts the overall rental experience.

The van was everything we needed and at a good price. It was waiting for us at Orlando airport when we arrived. During our trip we traveled to Tampa and Cocoa Beach without any problems. We would definitely rent again.

First time using Turo instead of Hertz (I have President’s Circle), and honestly there’s no comparison. This was so much easier. Great communication from the host before arrival, super clear instructions, and pickup was right in the airport parking garage—no shuttle, no rental counter, no waiting. Drop-off was just as easy: parked at my terminal and walked out. Amazing experience. I don’t see myself going back to traditional rentals.

Fantastic rental experience with Elmar. Very communicative and met us when we landed even though we were slightly delayed. Vehicle was perfect for our foursome and fit our clubs (in travel cases) and was VERY reasonable for gas even in these high price gas times. Vehicle is a hybrid so we got about 200kms of "free" driving because the van was charged. Very responsive vehicle and very easy to drive. Great experience and would definitely rent again from Elmar

This is my second time renting from Alvin, and once again the experience was phenomenal. The vehicle was exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and performed perfectly throughout my trip. Alvin was very communicative, responsive, and professional from start to finish, making the entire rental process easy and stress-free. What truly stands out is the consistency of service and attention to detail. Both of my rental experiences have exceeded expectations, and it's clear that Alvin takes great pride in providing an outstanding experience for his guests. This definitely will not be my last time renting from Alvin. I look forward to booking with him again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable vehicle and a trustworthy host. Thank you, Alvin, for another smooth and great experience!

You'll find convenient street parking around the Green, making it easy to explore the Old Court House, Immanuel Church, and historic homes on foot. The area features well-marked parking areas that accommodate larger vehicles like minivans perfectly for family visits.


Delaware River waterfront and Battery Park recreation

Battery Park stretches along the Delaware River offering panoramic water views, walking paths, and children's playground equipment. The park provides ample parking spaces near the waterfront, making it ideal for families arriving by rental car with picnic supplies and recreational gear. You can easily combine this stop with visits to nearby Wilmington attractions or continue south to explore more Delaware coastal destinations.


Fort Casimir and Swedish colonial heritage sites

Fort Casimir represents New Castle's Swedish and Dutch colonial heritage with interpretive displays and scenic river overlooks. The site offers dedicated parking areas where you can safely leave your vehicle while exploring the grounds and learning about Delaware's early European settlement. Your minivan provides perfect storage for any educational materials or souvenirs you collect during your historical exploration.


Reaching New Castle from major transportation hubs

Getting to New Castle involves several convenient options:
• By plane: Fly into Philadelphia International Airport, then drive south via Interstate 95
• By car: Take Interstate 95 to Route 9 south, or use Route 13 from Wilmington
• By train: Arrive at Wilmington station, then drive or take local transportation to New Castle
• From Washington: Follow Interstate 95 north through Baltimore and continue to Delaware


Essential minivan rental tips for your New Castle family vacation

Book your minivan early on Turo to secure the best family-friendly options with features like backup cameras and keyless entry for easier loading. Look for vehicles equipped with Android Auto or Apple CarPlay to keep passengers entertained during drives to Philadelphia or Washington attractions. Consider minivans with all-wheel drive if you plan winter visits, and always request child seats if traveling with younger family members. Choose pet-friendly options if bringing furry family members along for your Delaware adventure.

Frequently asked questions in New Castle

Why choose a minivan for your New Castle family adventure?

Minivans provide exceptional space and comfort for families exploring New Castle and the broader Delaware region. These vehicles offer ample seating for up to eight passengers, making them ideal for multi-generational trips or families with children who need extra room for car seats and gear. The generous cargo capacity allows you to pack everything needed for Delaware adventures, from beach equipment for coastal trips to supplies for exploring Wilmington's historic attractions.

What safety features should you prioritize when selecting a minivan in New Castle?

Modern minivans come equipped with advanced safety technologies including automatic emergency braking, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alerts that are particularly valuable when navigating Delaware's busy areas near Philadelphia and Washington corridors. Look for vehicles with multiple airbags, electronic stability control, and backup cameras to ensure safe maneuvering in New Castle parking areas and residential neighborhoods. Child safety locks and LATCH systems are essential features when traveling with younger passengers throughout Delaware.

How does driving a minivan differ from regular cars in Delaware?

Minivans sit higher than standard cars, providing better visibility of Delaware's varied terrain and traffic conditions between New Castle and surrounding areas like Wilmington. The increased height and length require more attention when parking in tight spaces or navigating narrow streets in historic Delaware neighborhoods. You'll need to account for the vehicle's dimensions when using parking garages or drive-throughs, though the improved sight lines make highway driving more comfortable on routes connecting Delaware to Philadelphia and Washington regions.

What are the best packing strategies for minivan road trips from New Castle?

Utilize the minivan's multiple storage compartments and under-floor storage areas to organize gear systematically for your Delaware adventure. Pack heavier items low and toward the center of the vehicle to maintain stability, while keeping frequently needed items in easily accessible door pockets and console areas. The removable or fold-down seating in most minivans allows you to customize the cargo space based on your passenger count and luggage needs for trips around New Castle and beyond.

How can you maximize comfort during long minivan journeys in Delaware?

Take advantage of the minivan's individual climate controls and multiple charging ports to keep all passengers comfortable during extended drives through Delaware. The spacious interior allows passengers to stretch out and move around more freely than in standard cars, reducing fatigue on longer journeys from New Castle to other Delaware destinations. Many minivans feature entertainment systems and multiple USB ports, making it easier to keep children occupied during travel between Delaware attractions.

Which minivan models work best for Delaware road trips?

Popular minivan options like the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna offer reliable performance and fuel efficiency suitable for Delaware's mix of highway and local driving conditions. Ford Transit Connect provides a more compact alternative while still offering generous passenger and cargo space for New Castle area exploration. Consider models with all-wheel drive capability if you plan to venture into Delaware's rural areas or travel during winter months when road conditions may be challenging.

Is there unlimited mileage car rental on Turo?

Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit — you'll need to check on each rental car individually to see if this service is provided. On the vehicle pages, you'll see the total miles or kilometers 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.

Is there long term car rental on Turo?

Yes there is — whether you want to rent a car for three days, three months, or even longer, you can on Turo. You'll find discounted prices on bookings lasting 3+, 7+, or 30+ days, so you can get the best deals and lowest rates possible by booking longer trips.

How does car rental insurance work on Turo?

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.
