The times vary depending on the part of the city you’re in. If you plan on making your visit to Cincinnati during the winter, take into account that there tend to be snowfalls during the cold months.

Cincinnati is known for its picturesque bridges and its skyline. You can get frame-worthied pictures of both driving under half an hour to viewpoints like Devou Park or the Riverside Drive in Covington. The downtown area is walkable, but the main attractions are not close to one another. There is a public transportation system but the easier way of getting around is by car.

However, there can be restrictions on luxury car rentals in Cincinnati as well as large passenger van rentals, so you will want to contact the rental agency to get details on northern border-crossing policies. Cincinnati car rentals tend to have stricter guidelines on travel south of the U.S. border. Often, it is not allowed, or, if it is, it can be restricted to within several distances of the Mexican border, and you’ll need to purchase additional insurance for your Cincinnati car rental. Mexico does not accept liability insurance policies from the U.S., so you will also need Mexican liability insurance. Therefore, the best practice, if you intend to cross either border, is to speak directly to your rental agency for details regarding cross-border travel.

While the standard for making reservations for car rentals in Cincinnati is by credit card, most rental agencies have now opened up to make it easier to rent your vehicle with a debit card. To use either of these you’ll also have to show your driver’s license, which should be in the same name as your credit card. Note that you will need to purchase insurance or be able to provide your own proof of coverage if you’d rather not pay for an agency’s policy. After your trip, when returning your economy car rental or cheap car rental in Cincinnati, you have more payment options. As you settle for your car rental in Cincinnati, most agencies will offer the option of paying your final rental bill with cash, credit, debit, or applicable prepaid debit or check cards. Specific requirements are likely to differ from rental agency to rental agency, so be sure to clarify details before booking.
