Lima International Airport Car Hire (LIM)

Lima Jorge Chávez International Airport (LIM) is Peru's largest rental car hub with as many as 14 rental companies in the terminal. The airport is located in Callao, 12 km from Miraflores city center and 10 km from Lima's historic center. With such a wide selection of rental companies, you can easily compare prices and find the right vehicle for your Peru trip.

From the airport, you can reach Miraflores in about 25 minutes via Avenida Faucett and Vía Expresa. Drive south 30 km along Panamericana Sur to reach Pachacamac temple, one of Peru's most important pre-Incan holy sites. North along the coast, Ancón beach resort is 40 km away (45 minutes).

With 14 rental companies on-site, it's worth comparing prices directly in the terminal, but you'll often get the best price by booking online in advance. Always request a car with GPS or download offline maps – mobile data can be unreliable outside Lima. Choose a vehicle with high ground clearance if you plan day trips to Ica and Paracas along the coast.
