KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Manila

  • The main advantage of renting a vehicle during your time in Manila is that it opens the outer areas of the city and nearby countryside for exploration. Fort Santiago, for instance, is just 20 minutes from central Manila by car, but if you were to opt for public transport instead, it could take up to 50 minutes.
  • For travelers planning on renting a vehicle after landing at Manila Ninoy Aquino International Airport, the hire car counters can be found at a variety of locations in the airport. Terminals 1, 2, and 3 all have their own hire car areas located in their respective Arrivals Lobbies.
  • Due to congestion on major roads during the workweek, Manila has enforced the Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program (UVVRP), which forbids certain private vehicles from driving on major roads on various days of the week from 7:00 a.m to 8:00 p.m., based on the final digit of their license plate. Specifically, vehicles whose license plates ends with a 1 or 2 are banned on Mondays, 3 or 4 on Tuesdays, 5 or 6 on Wednesdays, 7 or 8 on Thursdays, and 9 or 0 on Fridays.
  • Manila like any major city in the world experiences its fair share of rush hour traffic. Drivers can expect the morning rush hour to pick up around 7:00 a.m. and to last until 9:00 a.m. most mornings, while the afternoon and evening rush hour usually begins at around 4:00 p.m. and finishes up between 6:00 and 7:00 p.m. The key roads to avoid during rush hour in Manila are the R-8 and C-1. Both of these roads face major congestion during the busiest hours of the day.

  • Book your rental car in Manila at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Hire a driver to get you out of the busy area then when you get used to Manila drive on your own.
Verified travelerSep 2023
Look out for the scooters and motor bikes. They act as if they own the road and come dangerously close to everyone. They will cut you off without regard. Be careful driving in Manila is not for the faint of heart.

Only book directly through a car company. Speak directly to a human on the phone. Only use major companies with complete insurance coverage

FAQs about renting a car in Manila

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Manila?

    It is best to go with a mid-sized to smaller vehicle like a sedan or compact during your time in Manila because of the city’s variable roads. This is because it isn’t uncommon to see small lanes and one-way roads, particularly in the more historic sections of the city. On such streets, larger cars may struggle to fit at times, so to be safe, go with a smaller car. Additionally, parking spaces are often small, especially in densely populated areas.

  • What’s the speed limit in Manila?

    Streets within Manila feature speed limits from 20 km/h (12 mph) in residential areas to 40 km/h (25 mph) on regular urban roads, while outside of built-up areas the speed limit goes up to 80 km/h (50 mph). On motorways and expressways the speed limit can reach 100 km/h (62 mph).

  • Where are the best places to park in Manila?

    Private parking garages and lots are convenient great options for drivers who are sticking to the busier parts of town. This is particularly the case in the bay front area, where parking garages are the main option available. In quieter quarters such as residential areas, streetside parking is a more popular and typical option. Drivers should note, though, that many businesses will have private parking lots and garages for their customers to use.

Mar 2023

Pick up: It was hard to find the rental office. There could have been better directions to get there. We took a Grab to get to the office, rounded the airport and asked for directions a couple of times only to find out that we could have walked to the office from the arrival area. There was only one (harried) customer service person there to check people in and out and she was clearly overwhelmed! She eventually got everybody taken care of but not after a long wait. She was sweet and patient, though. We discovered after having driven the TOYOTA INNOVA for a couple of days that the front tires were balding. There was hardly any tread life in them. So we took the car to the shop to get at least one of the tires replaced with the spare, only to discover that the spare tire was also threadbare. We actually had to rent a different car to travel a farther distance because it had been raining and we were afraid we would lose traction on the road and get into an accident! So...we actually ended up paying more for transportation. That was disappointing. Dropping off: We were not informed that the car could be dropped off at a location closer to the hotel we were staying at. That would have been helpful information so we didn't have to fight Manila traffic to return the car on time. The same sweet lady was working then and she told us we could take the car back to the hotel and drop it off at the closer location but that would have meant fighting traffic again and perhaps getting lost looking for the place, so we declined. We told her we would take a Grab instead. There was another lady working during that time and she was gracious enough to book a ride for us. We appreciated that extra customer service. Overall, it was an ok experience. We would rent there again if necessary, but would be more mindful to check the condition of the car before driving it off. The car obviously needed maintenance. I have already mentioned the tires. The steering wheel also vibrated and the car pulled to the right, indicating much-needed alignment work.

Jan 2019

KAYAK

Pros:

Car was in clean, in good condition, worked well, and got good gas mileage. The staff was excellent - very friendly and helpful, very easy to deal with, and not pushy with extra charges or insurance.

Cons:

Dropping the car off could have been a little easier - there is no specific car rental return area like there are in many other major airports. So be sure to ask when ask the specifics of where to return the car BEFORE you leave the airport with the vehicle. Otherwise, everything else was great.

The staff at the airport was friendly and did his best to help us, so this poor review is not a reflection on him. However, it is important for other travelers to know that Avis and other international car rental companies need at least 3-4 days before booking to confirm that they do, in fact, have a car available. We booked a car through Kayak and got a confirmation two days before, only to arrive at the airport and be told that they were completely booked (as were Hertz, Thrifty, and other similar companies) and had no cars we could use. The Avis customer service was unwilling to pay the difference between the rate they confirmed for us and the higher rate a local car rental company offered. In summary, the system of online booking, whether directly with Avis or through a third party like Kayak, does not work in the Philippines if you book a few days before needing the rental.

After a 24 hour long flight you simply want your rental car. Well; Avis didn't approve our European driver license! they would only accept US and Filipino driver licenses. There was NOTHING listed about this on the web site. When we deal with them two people was waiting next to us and they told me that they knew it would happen as Avis don't accept foreign driver licenses but they could rent us a car.....well thanks but the car ended up being twice the price. Simply don't rent with Avis in Manila!
