Honolulu Car Rentals

[pmjnh]

Looking to book a car rental in Honolulu. are there rental companies that have pick up shuttles from or near Pier 2? What experience have you had renting a car for a day in Honolulu?

 

Thank you

You'll either need to Uber/Lyft/taxi to the airport or one of the rental desks in and around Waikiki. The locations not at the airport do have more limited hours.

What are you trying to accomplish and are you going to the airport the same day or overnighting in Honolulu?

We wish to rent a car just for the day 8-5 and returning to Pier 2. We found a car at Enterprise Nimitz highway but wondered if we would need to take an uber or cab

Yes, no one picks up at the pier. 

 

What I was asking though was what you were planning to do with the car when you have it. If you're going to drive up to the North Shore or along the coast you'll need it. If you are planning on doing things around Honolulu like go to Pearl Harbor or Waikiki, a rental will be more trouble than its worth in terms of parking costs and wasted time picking up and dropping off.

Ahh, yes, we are birders and will be driving to various birding locations, mostly on the north shore.
