We are arriving Monday and have gone for a Full size Nissan Altima or similar. Please can someone clarify when you get to the garage how do you actually know which cars you can choose from. Are different categories of car in different rows or something like that. Not being familiar with American cars it would be hard to figure out which choice we have.
Is there an assistant stood nearby pointing at them or something?
Thank you

Yes there are Alamo staff in the garage to direct you to the row of cars that you can select from. We always have full size and LOVE the Dodge Charger
This year the car we wanted wasn't in the row so they called and got one brought over for us. The Alamo garage staff have always been really helpful.

Thanks Joanne I will tell my partner to look out for one of those. Does it have plenty of boot space can you remember?

I looked at the boot sizes and the Dodge Charger and the Chevrolet Impala were the biggest for boot space in the full size range when we went. We were able to fit all our cases in the boot, 3 larger cases, 2 cabin cases plus kid's rucksacks.I like everything to fit in the boot so that nothing is on show then we can pop to Publix on the way to our hotel.
