Orlando Rent A Car

This car rental company has a lower rating, but is actuall also a good option. The main reason Orlando has a low rating, is because of how they deal with insurance; if you book online and include insurance, they will still make you get a insurance when you pick up the car. So it’s better to book the car without insurance and only pay for the insurance they will sell you when you pick up the car. This way you don’t pay double for insurance!
