Routes is the cheapest company at Guadalajara Airport for an Intermediate car over the last 12 months, averaging $22 a day, but you need a credit card and cannot yet judge it by a review score. Routes has an airport desk, holds a deposit of around $2,503 and does not yet have enough reviews for a score. If you want a scored alternative, Enterprise averages $40 a day for an Intermediate car over the last 12 months from 824 prices, costs $18 more a day and scores 78/100 from 39 recent reviews.
