Car rental in Mazatlán

Getting Around

Driving in Mazatlán offers you the freedom to explore at your own pace. But do bear in mind, unlike the UK's left-hand-side driving, here in Mexico, we stick to the right side of the road.

Choosing the Right Car Class

We recommend renting a compact or economy car for your stay, ensuring easy maneuverability through the bustling city streets.

Speed Limits and Traffic Rules

As you enjoy your exploration, adhere to the posted speed limits, typically, 60-80km/h in urban areas and 100-120km/h on highways. Seat belts are compulsory for all car occupants, and using mobile phones while driving is strictly prohibited.

Popular Routes: Mazatlán and Beyond

Rent a car and let the road take you! Drive along the Malecón, one of the longest boardwalks in the world, for sweeping views of the ocean. If you're up for a day trip, take a short 30-minute drive to El Quelite, known for its quaint rural charm and delicious cuisines.

Attractions and Neighborhoods

Don't miss out on Old Mazatlán, known for its colonial architecture, or Stone Island for its secluded beaches. Take a drive to the Golden Zone - the city's shopping haven or visit the busy Machado Square.

Airport and Transportation

Your flight will likely land at Mazatlán International Airport, located about 21 km from the city center. Our car rental partners located within the airport premises offer a seamless, hassle-free rental experience.

Seasonal Events

If you're visiting in February, don't forget to check out the vibrant Mazatlán Carnival, one of the oldest in the world, renowned for its grand parades and fireworks.

Currency and Climate

The official currency here is the Mexican peso (MXN), and it's best to update yourself with the latest exchange rates. Enjoy tropical weather in Mazatlán with a touch of humidity. Pack your hats, sunscreens and have an unforgettable trip!
