KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Santiago de los Caballeros
While there are public transportation options within the city, securing a car rental in Santiago de los Caballeros is one of the best ways to guarantee access to the various attraction sites. Rental prices on the island are reasonable, making renting a car preferable in comparison with grabbing taxis and rideshares for your travels. What’s more, with a rental, you’ll have space to cart along any gear you may need for the day. If you choose to take a day trip to Puerto Plata along the seacoast, which is roughly between 1h and 1h 30min north, a rental car gives you the flexibility to make the trip on your own time. Alternatively, if you choose to explore some of the local wildlife parks, a car will get you there.
To pick up your Santiago de los Caballeros car rental from the Cibao International Airport (STI), also known as Santiago Airport, you’ll need to head toward the exit of the main passenger terminal. On the right, before leaving the building, there are desks for rental companies that include Hertz, Budget and Enterprise, among others. Within the city, there are additional rental locations, including both Budget and Alamo on Ave. Juan Pablo Duarte.
While driving in Santiago de los Caballeros, you’ll want to stay attentive to the roads and other drivers, as locals tend to have a more relaxed approach to complying with traffic laws. Also to note: If there is a traffic accident, regardless of who is at fault, typically all involved parties are apprehended until the details can be worked out and the matter is resolved. So, should your trip include traveling through the mountains or navigating more rural roadways, you’ll want to stay particularly vigilant. It is also highly recommended that you secure the proper insurance for your rental.
A majority of the working population in Santiago de los Caballeros commutes to work via car, which means that the hours just before and just after the normal workday can increase the time spent commuting. If your schedule allows for flexibility, we recommend hitting the road outside of these rush hours, which are typically from 7:30am to 9am and then again from 4:30pm until about 6pm.
Medium rental cars in Santiago de los Caballeros are around 40% cheaper than other car types, on average
FAQs about renting a car in Santiago de los Caballeros
What type of car is recommended for driving in Santiago de los Caballeros?
You’ll find that a suitable car rental in Santiago de los Caballeros is an economy or compact car. Both of these vehicle types offer a great deal of agility, and their small size is accommodating when you hope to park in tighter spots. If, however, you plan to use Santiago de los Caballeros as a launching point for day trips, whether it’s to the beaches or into the mountains, the better vehicle option for your trip is a compact SUV—the higher driver’s seat provides better visibility while the elevated drivetrain offers better clearance on bumpy roads.
What’s the speed limit in Santiago de los Caballeros?
The speed limits that you can expect to find in Santiago de los Caballeros vary depending upon the type of road. Typically, speed limits posted within the city are around 40mph. In suburban areas, they may increase to about 50mph. On highways, you’ll find posted speed limits around 65mph. However, wherever you’re driving, keep alert for speed postings and drive accordingly.

I liked that the car was clean. I dislike that i was told i was getting a specific car, and after i paid, the car wasn't available. I also don't like the pressure to get extra insurance.

The pick up and dropoff of the car was easy for me, but I had to chase down the lot attendant to close out the rental. There wasn't anyone at the counter. The car had quite a few dents and nicks, but the attendant noted them correctly at checkout. Overall a good experience.
