Find parking garage near a hotel if staying in the center

For anyone looking to travel to the southern Ecuadorian city of Cuenca, a car rental is arguably one of the best assets you will have. Getting car rentals in Cuenca can go a long way in ensuring that you have an easy time navigating the city and visiting some of the top attractions in the area, such as the Pumapungo Museum, Calderon Park and the famous Cuenca Canopy. With your car rental, you won’t incur expensive taxi fares any time you need to go somewhere, and you will also not have to deal with the inconvenience and limitations of using public transport. If that isn’t enough, you can conveniently visit neighboring cities such as Canar and Azuay.
When flying into Cuenca, you will most likely land at Aeropuerto Mariscal La Mar (CUE), the main airport serving Cuenca and the surrounding cities. While at the airport, you can pick up your Cuenca car rental instead of taking a taxi or airport shuttle to the city center. This airport is served by close to ten rental agencies. This provides you with a range of options to choose from, thus improving the chances of getting the rental car you’re looking for. Each agency has a dedicated desk in the Arrivals Hall where you can inquire about the availability of rentals and proceed to reserve a rental car that will serve you best. Once you’ve signed the agreement, the staff will lead you to the parking lot, where you can pick up your rental and drive off.
When driving your car rentals in Cuenca, beware of the pedestrians and motorcyclists who share the road with other motorists. Most have little to no regard for traffic rules, and it would be in your best interests to let them be while on the road instead of hassling for the same stretch of tarmac.
Traffic is only a problem in Cuenca during rush hours. This is usually around 7 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 6 pm. For your sake, you should try and leave early to beat the rush hour traffic, or you could easily end up spending an extra hour on the road due to traffic.

Do not buy an international insurance. Europcar in Ecuador will make you buy their insurance even if you use another insurance. Save the money and buy their insurance when you pick up the car.
