KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Stavanger
- When booking cheap car rentals in Stavanger, remember that the legal minimum age for driving in Norway is 19. Therefore, you must bring proof of age, such as an ID. Still, some rental agencies impose a surcharge on drivers under 25. In addition, you must present a valid driver's license acquired at least a year earlier and a passport as part of secondary identification. Also, it is recommended to get extra insurance to cover any accidents or mishaps when driving around. You can organize the insurance yourself before traveling. Most agencies only accept major credit such as MasterCard or American Express cards when making deposits.
- Before hitting the road in Stavanger car rentals, familiarize yourself with Norway’s unique driving laws. Besides a valid driving license, insurance is a legal requirement for anyone driving in Norway. It is thus helpful to double-check that you get the motor insurance certificate with your rental agency. In addition, renters are required to carry their car hire contracts or V5 registration documents when driving around in Stavanger. Under Norwegian law, motorists are required to use dipped lights during the daytime. It is also a requirement to fit headlamp converters at night or fit your car with adjustable headlights. Therefore, check with your preferred car rental company to see if they have models that meet these specifications.
- Be aware of toll roads when booking cheap car rentals in Stavanger. E18 and E39 are some of the most used toll roads in the city that you must pay for before using them. Your rental car provider will most likely have registered the car with AutoPASS. This way, you won’t have to worry about paying fees at the toll stations. The automated toll stations have video camera technology that reads your vehicle's registration plates and toll tags, and the charges are added to your final bill. Typically, the toll fee depends on the time of the day, the distance covered, and your car’s greenhouse gas emission rate.
- Opting for car hire in Stavanger rather than relying on public transport will free you from set schedules and routes and also prove invaluable when you want to get around the town outside of regular service hours. You can also reach more out of the way places in the wider area where the town is situated on the south-western Norwegian coast. The first place to head to by car is Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock). The view from there over Lysefjord will remain in your memory for years. In the city centre itself, make sure you visit Stavanger Cathedral and Valberg Tower, to the north of the Market Square district. Then take yourself on a self-drive tour of the historic Gamle Stavanger old part of town.
- The city is served by its own airport, so you can collect your car hire in Stavanger right there. You’ll be in the city centre after a short drive of 11km (just under 7 miles), as Stavanger Airport is technically in neighbouring Sola. Avis, Budget and Europcar operate out of the airport, along with plenty of others. They’re all in the P10 parking area, and you’ll be taken by free shuttle bus from the arrivals terminal.
- For one of the smaller cities, the traffic can get pretty congested in Stavanger. At the same time it’s a very green city, with many public parks where people congregate during the day, so it pays to always be careful of pedestrians when you’re driving in the centre of town. You’ll also encounter plenty of runners in the morning around Lake Mosvatnet. Add to that a disproportionate number of cyclists and you’ll rightly infer that driving here is quite a sedate affair.
- You’ll encounter a significant rush hour in the mornings between 08:00 and 09:00 and once again from around 16:00 to 17:30. This is mainly due to the city being a centre of oil production in Norway, so it has a sizeable industrial area that workers commute to and from each day. Busy intersections are the roundabout on the E39, and again where this road meets Route 509 Madlaveien. Route 44 can also experience traffic jams, especially at the roundabout where Kirkegardsveien meet it. Certain tunnels in the city can be congested too, especially the Ryfast Tunnel and Hundvagtunnelen.

Pros:
The pick up and ease was wonderful. The car was very nice.Cons:
The drop-off was a nightmare. The drop-off location was extremely difficult to find, no signage telling us where to park, where to drop the keys, etc. We had to do a lot of guessing and walking around asking and looking for help. In the end, we weren't sure we had done the right thing or that we had left the car or the keys in the right spot. The support phone number had no answer.4.0 Mediocre
