Good car for a road trip, the car is clean and tidy. I drove it from San Diego to Lake Tahoe and Sequoia National Forest without any issue.
Wow! What an experience I had with Michael’s BMW. This is literally a brand new car straight out of the dealership. I loved that the car has CarPlay to use GoogleMaps and a big panoramic moonroof that we opened while exploring beautiful San Diego. Thank you for the incredible service and excellent ride. We had an easy pick up from Michael’s pickup location close to SDSU. And would definitely rent from Michael when we’re in San Diego again.

Easy pickup at San Diego airport with the parking ramp right across the street from the terminal. The car was ready to go and Shai responded promptly to communications.
Chad was the best! Made our trip extremely easy. I have rented cars on Turo a couple different times and this was by far the best experience. His Tesla Model X is gorgeous and drives incredible. I will definitely be renting another one of Chads Tesla’s next time I come to San Diego. Chad thank you!
This was a perfect option for my stay in San Diego. Griffon is professional and cordial!

My Turo experience with mykeon was terrific. The vehicle was comfortable and a pleasure to drive; communication was excellent; and the price was very reasonable. We’ll definitely look up mykeon on our next trip to San Diego.
Jeremiah is a cool dude! The Macan is the perfect ride for San Diego at a great price. It’s big enough to load stuff, but small and nimble to park anywhere in downtown and PB. Would definitely rent again.
I appreciate the time and and easy drop off Lewellyn and his wife made for me and my family. The car was nice and big and was enough room for us. If your looking for a nice suv to travel while here in San Diego. This is one 🤗.

Second time renting from Jon. His wrangler is awesome and well maintained. Definitely one of the best in San Diego!
Our family loved using NJs Jeep for our week vacay in San Diego! Easy check-in/check-out, and the convertible is awesome for CA weather. Would definitely use again.
Our first time using Turo was an absolute pleasure and a complete success. Jordan was very communicative, friendly, and most of all very easy to work with. The jeep was awesome, clean, super easy and fun to drive and having the apple play/android auto hookup made getting around easy. Couldn't ask for a better ride in San Diego. But the best was the convenience of Jordan's pickup/drop-off location, especially for those flying into SD...just like the rental place but better, minus the fees and lines. Definitely going to hit up Jordan again later this summer!
Renting with Junior was the best decision we could have made! Car was like new and came with extra beach stuff (cooler/beach chairs etc). Junior was super communicative and friendly and allowed for an awesome experience in San Diego. Highly recommend Junior and would definitely come to him for a car rental in San Diego!
Great rental for a great price! Rodolfo is a 5-star host will excellent communication. Provided me with the perfect instructions, details, & tips for my trip. The Nissan Rogue was clean, spacious, & a smooth ride to say the least. Will book again when I re-visit San Diego.
Super convenient location, friendly staff, and AMAZINGLY cleaned cars. Will rent here faithfully when in San Diego.
Such a great host! Super great energy, super accommodating and made my trip in San Diego COMPLETE!
Easy to drive and park. Just what we needed for our trek to LA, Palm Springs and back to San Diego. Water bottles provided in the car was a nice touch. Just keep waking left out and along the airport past Terminal 1 and then through the crosswalk.
Chantz was an excellent host. His Jeep was a lot of fun to drive around San Diego. Couldn’t have had a better experience. Thank you Chantz!
Perfect for our needs bouncing around San Diego for a few days. Clean and comfortable. Easy to arrange pick up/drop off and communicate with owners.
The perfect car to adventure in. Magical rides on sunny days through San Diego. Jocelyn was a pleasure to deal with and very responsive. Couldn't be happier with my first experience using Turo.
Everything was excellent! The car was perfect for our trip. Tyler made the process very easy from pickup to drop off. I will definitely be using this next time we are in San Diego.
