We are leaving next Thursday for St Thomas. Do we need to call to rent a car before our trip or is that something can be done upon arrival? Are they easily located?
Hello Chelle,
Are you wanting to just rent a car when you get to the airport OR if you decide you might want a car after a couple days on the island then you would like to go rent one??

Well, good question. We have to go to the court house from the airport. Gotta do the marriage thing. I don't mind taking a cab to there and then to our hotel. I was just curious if they had car rental places all over the place. Actually, which ever way is the most conveinant for us. Hey, thank you Islander for all of your great advise and help. I have been reading this thread for 2 days now and I have learned SOOOO MUCH. I know what to do now and what to look out for.
Hello Chelle,
I asked because if you intend to rent a car in the airport for your whole trip I would suggest just making the reservations from now so that you can compare prices and see who is giving the best deal. If you wait until you are at the airport standing in front of the few rental agencies located at the airport then you have already limited your options which is fine and as mentioned it is possiable if they have cars to just walk up and rent one.
There are offices at some hotels, in Havensight, in town, at the airport... in different areas so if you want to use a taxi a few days and then decide you might want a car for a couple days to do your own thing you can certainly arrange that easily.
