Miami International Airport is the perfect starting point for your tropical adventure. While the city is famous for the vibrant nightlife and pastel architecture of South Beach, a rental car allows you to explore the incredible natural diversity of the region. Drive just 45 minutes west to experience the Everglades National Park, a vast subtropical wilderness famous for its airboat tours and free-roaming alligators. For the ultimate road trip, head south to join the Overseas Highway. This spectacular route connects the Florida Keys, taking you across dozens of bridges suspended over the turquoise ocean all the way down to Key West.
South Florida's road network is fast-paced, and traffic can be heavy around the city center. The region also relies heavily on toll roads, including the Florida Turnpike and express lanes on the I-95. These are almost entirely "cashless" and operate using a Toll-by-Plate system or a SunPass transponder.
Our Advice: It is highly recommended to speak with your provider at the rental desk about their specific toll management options to ensure you can use the express lanes and navigate the region seamlessly without incurring unexpected administrative penalties.
At Zest Car Rental, we offer a wide range of vehicles at Miami Airport to suit every type of traveller.

You can pick up your car at Miami Airport and drop it off at a different location, such as Orlando or Key West. One-way rentals are perfect for driving the length of the state or the island chain without having to backtrack.
Please note that each provider sets their own rules for one-way rentals, and some may apply a mandatory local fee. This is clearly shown during the booking process.

Can I rent a car in Miami if I am over 70?
