    Have consistently used Alamo for our anuual trips to the USA for the last seven years. Once I booked direct; the rest have been through UK brokers.

    We have always had good service particularly where we have to choose a vehicle that is convenient for my wheelchair user.

    This year we had a problem w ...

    Beware of dropping off your Alamo Car Hire car at Manchester Airport early in the morning. The office is closed (although it claims to be open 24 hours!). They charge you an extra day's hire on your credit card even though you return the car well before needed. They put a sign in the window sayin ...

    We spent two weeks in the Dordogne region of France recently. We hired the car from Alamo in Limoges because they had a car that could carry the 6 of us and they were open Saturday afternoon when we were scheduled to arrive by train from Paris. Limoges is not very close to where we were staying, b ...

    I hired a car from Alamo at Dulles Airport, Wasington for two weeks in May 2009. The shuttle bus to and from the depot is quick and the driver worked like a Trojan to move suitcases (some bigger than him) on and off the bus. The car was Hyundai Accent with aircon. Perfectly adequate and I could hav ...

    I use Alamo fairly regularly, and have always have a good experience with them. One time, there was a mistake where they charged me for fuel, but after ringing the local office this was sorted out straight away (central call centre pretty useless though). Nearly always cheapest and never had a prob ...
