Renting my car was easy and affordable! I've rented with SIXT in Europe but never before in the US. Daniel gave me a brand new, pristine Camry that was wonderful. A five-star experience!

Super friendly and helpful stuff, we got a very clean and new BMW X3. We drove to Redwood National park and Sacramento from and back to SJC, long road trip so this nice car made a significant role. We add the (unlimited) toll pass for $13 per day. Completely satisfied experience with Sixt this time, would definitely recommend.

Pick up was easy and fast. The car is is great shape, and very clean. The guy at the counter - Daniel - was excellent! He made us feel very welcome in a new city, and gave us great advice on where to visit and eat. Would definitely recommend Sixt and will use them next time we need to rent.

Sixt at the San Jose Airport (SJC) is the best!
Over the past few years, I have always relied on them for their amazing car selection at competitive prices, especially during the pandemic. They always strive to keep their cars clean and well-maintained to make sure everyone has the best experience.
Where there is often a lack of inventory of cars at Hertz President's Circle and National Executive Emerald Aisle at SJC, Sixt at SJC has always been my go-to for flexibility, accessibility, and most importantly, reliability for their cars and their service.
No matter if there are technical difficulties or availability issues, SJC Sixt is always ready to accommodate their customers. Whether it’s something small like making sure I’m topped off on windshield wiper fluid or something catastrophic like the occasional Southwest flight cancellation, the Sixt team is always there to make sure I can get to where I need to go. From personally teaching me how to operate the vehicle’s 4WD system and ensuring that my Apple CarPlay was properly connected wirelessly to the vehicle’s infotainment system, they never hesitate to take the extra time to ensure I am able to utilize the vehicle to its fullest experience.
Shoutout to Arnel, Lorna, and Arvind for always being so courteous, efficient, and responsive!
