Rent a Car in Lahore
Alpha Car Rentals is run from one office in Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Karachi, and we arrange cars for customers travelling to Lahore. Any of our fifteen vehicles can be booked with a driver or self-drive: a Suzuki Alto at PKR 5,000 a day for city running, a Corolla Altis for meetings on Main Boulevard, a Hiace Grand Cabin or a Coaster when the whole family is coming for a shaadi. Send us the dates and we confirm on WhatsApp before you pay anything.
Where the car reaches you in Lahore
Most Lahore bookings start at one of four places: the arrivals gate at Allama Iqbal International Airport, a hotel or office on Main Boulevard Gulberg, a house in Model Town, Johar Town or DHA, or a relative's address in Bahria Town or out near Thokar Niaz Baig. Tell us the flight number or the full address on WhatsApp and we will confirm the pick-up point, the driver's name and his number the day before. If your plan changes mid-trip, message the office rather than settling it with the driver, so the change is recorded against your booking.
Wedding and family bookings
Lahore shaadi season fills the marquees along Raiwind Road, Ferozepur Road and the canal, and a good share of our Lahore enquiries are for exactly that. The usual pattern is one smart car for the couple - a Mercedes C-Class, BMW 3 Series, Prado or Fortuner - with a Hiace Grand Cabin or a Coaster behind it for the rest of the guests, so nobody is hunting for a rickshaw at midnight. Tell us the venue and the timings for mehndi, baraat and walima when you book, because a car held for three separate evenings is arranged differently from a straight day hire.
Motorway runs in and out of Lahore
Lahore sits at the centre of the country's motorway network, and a fair part of our work here is the driving between cities: M-2 up to Islamabad, M-3 down to Faisalabad, M-4 towards Multan and then M-5 for Sukkur and Karachi. Customers also ask for Gujranwala, Sialkot and Sheikhupura runs on the GT Road, and day trips to Wagah or the Walled City with the driver waiting. For any intercity run we agree the tolls, the fuel arrangement and where the driver stays overnight before you leave, so nothing has to be argued at the end of the trip.
With a driver or self-drive
Ferozepur Road, the canal bank and Jail Road at rush hour are not the place to learn a city, so visitors almost always take a car with a driver. Our drivers stay with the vehicle for the hours you book and keep their own fuel and parking receipts. If you live in Lahore and only need the car, self-drive can be arranged on the smaller vehicles. The documents and the security arrangement are set out on our self-drive page and confirmed by the office for your booking before handover.

Questions people ask
Do you have an office in Lahore?
No. Our office is at Block 13-D, Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Karachi, and the business is run from there. Lahore bookings are arranged for your dates and confirmed in writing on WhatsApp, with the vehicle, the driver's name and the pick-up point stated before you pay. Call or message +92 311 2847167 and we will tell you honestly what is free on your dates.
Can you collect me from Allama Iqbal International Airport?
Yes. Share the flight number, the arrival time and how many bags you have, and the driver will be waiting when you come out. If the flight is delayed the office follows it and moves the pick-up, so you are not paying for waiting that was not your fault. Late-night arrivals are fine as long as the booking is made in advance.
Which cars can I choose from in Lahore?
The same fifteen vehicles we run from Karachi: Alto, Honda City, the Corolla and the Corolla Altis 1.6, Civic, BR-V, Sportage, Fortuner, Prado, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes C-Class, APV, Hiace Commuter, Grand Cabin and Coaster. Daily rates run from PKR 5,000 for the Alto up to PKR 35,000 for the C-Class, subject to what is free on your dates.
