Rent a car in Bogotá: how Rodii works
Rodii is not a traditional rent a car company with a counter and its own fleet: it is a marketplace where you rent the car directly from its owner. That removes the middleman, and with it the high deposits and fine print the rental industry charges for.
The process is digital end to end and takes minutes: pick a car from the Bogotá catalog, choose your dates and times, verify your identity online once and pay securely. Then you agree with the owner where to pick the car up.
Check-in and check-out happen from your phone, with photos of the car's condition recorded for both parties. No arguments when you hand it back.
El Dorado (BOG) airport and door-to-door delivery
El Dorado sits inside the city, in Fontibón, which makes airport delivery here among the fastest in the country. You agree on a time with the owner and get the keys as you walk out of the terminal — no rental counter queue, no shuttle to an off-site office.
Across the rest of Bogotá and the Sabana there is door-to-door delivery too: the car reaches your hotel, apartment or office. In the catalog you can filter by airport or home delivery to see only the cars that offer it, and each listing states its coverage radius.
Pico y placa in Bogotá: check it before you rent
Bogotá enforces pico y placa, a driving restriction based on the last digit of the license plate on certain days and time windows. The city's mobility authority adjusts the scheme periodically, so it is worth confirming which one applies to your travel dates.
Bogotá also runs Pico y Placa Solidario, which lets you pay for a permit to drive on restricted days. If your plans depend on driving every day, check the current rate before booking.
On Rodii every car listing states whether that car is restricted and on which days, or whether it is exempt. Check it before booking and pick a car you can actually drive when you need it.
Where to pick up your car in Bogotá
Rodii owners are spread across the city, so there is almost always a car near where you are staying:
- Chapinero and Zona T
- The heart of nightlife and offices. Plenty of supply and handovers you can walk to.
- Usaquén and Chicó
- Up north, the hotel and short-stay apartment district. Convenient if you work along the Carrera 7 corridor.
- Salitre and Modelia
- The neighbourhoods closest to El Dorado. The best option if you are flying in and want to get moving fast.
- Teusaquillo and the Centre
- Near the universities and the historic centre, practical if your trip is mostly urban.
- Suba and the North
- The natural exit towards Chía, Cajicá and the Sabana if you are heading out of town for the weekend.
What your rental price includes
The figure you see in the catalog is the car's daily price. Before confirming you see the full breakdown, with coverage and any delivery cost included: nothing shows up at the end or when you return the car.
Every Rodii booking includes SURA insurance coverage for the trip, and without the high deposits traditional car rental in Colombia asks for.
The final cost depends on the vehicle category, how many days you rent it, the season and whether you request home or airport delivery. All of it is calculated before you pay, not after.
