Tips for renting a car in Louisiana
Browse helpful tips for renting a car in Louisiana including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on July 30, 2026.
- The state of Louisiana is known for having very hot weather and for being rather humid. Because of this, you will want to make sure that the car you rent has air conditioning. Before you leave the lot, also check to verify that it actually works. This feature will be a lifesaver, as you will not want to overheat or drive with your windows open and risk the possibility of bugs getting into your vehicle while trying to cool down.
- When you rent a car in Louisiana, you may want to drive to a neighboring state, such as Texas, Arkansas, or Mississippi. Most rental companies will allow you to do this and will even allow you to drive anywhere in the continental United States. Make sure to check if you are allowed to return your car in a different state, or if you must bring it back to where you initially received it. However, most companies do not allow their customers to rent a car from the state of Louisiana and then drive across the border to Mexico.
- Anyone that will be renting a car in Louisiana with their family will want to make sure that they are familiar with the state’s car seat requirements. Children less than two years old must be in a rear-facing child seat, while children between the ages of two and four years old must be in a forward-facing car seat. Children between the ages of four and nine years old that have outgrown a forward-facing car seat are required to be in a booster seat. All children under the age of 13 must sit in the rear of the vehicle.

Should I rent a car in Wisconsin?
Renting a car in Wisconsin is a must. Some of the larger cities do have a bit of public transportation, including Madison and Milwaukee, but they are not always the most convenient ways to get around the cities. The rest of the state is filled with smaller cities and rural areas that require a car in order to move around. Wisconsin is also known for having many beautiful road trip options, so you will want access to your own vehicle in order to embark on these. There is the Cranberry Highway, which is a 50-mile stretch of old cranberry bogs, as well as the Lake Superior Byway, which showcases the beautiful lakes of this body of water.
What is driving like in Wisconsin?
Driving in Wisconsin is usually straightforward. The roads are normally in good condition throughout the state, but there may be some in more rural areas that are not very well lit at night. You will want to be careful when driving in the winter, though. Wisconsin is particularly prone to blizzards, so it is highly likely that you will encounter snow. Make sure that you are prepared to drive in snowy conditions and that your rental car is adequately equipped with chains and tires that are suited for the winter.
How old do you have to be rent a car in Wisconsin?
To rent a car in WIsconsin, you are required to be a minimum of 21 years old. It is important to keep in mind that most major rental companies will charge you a daily fee if you are under the age of 25. You must also be in possession of a driver’s license that is at least one year old, will not expire for the duration of your rental, and has no negative remarks or limitations. Most rental companies will also require you to have a major credit card in order to pay for your rental, but some may allow debit cards as well.
