KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Glasgow

  • Glasgow has superb places to visit with cheap Glasgow car rentals. Visitors can tour the famous Celtic Park Stadium with car rentals in Glasgow. The stadium is about 2 miles from Glasgow’s city center. Drivers can also drive cheap Glasgow car rentals to Clydeside Distillery and taste some of the finest Scottish whisky. The distillery is less than 5 miles from the city center. The Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum is also a great destination for drivers seeking a sightseeing tour. The historic museum is approximately 7 miles from Glasgow’s city center.
  • Driving in Glasgow’s city center is subject to lots of restrictions. Visitors who drive their cheap car rentals in Glasgow in restricted areas risk paying hefty fines. Some restricted areas to avoid while driving includes Killermont Street, West George Street, and Ingram Street. Those driving on restricted roads risk paying a fine of up to 60 pounds. Fortunately, car rentals usually advise car renters on the specific restricted areas to avoid while driving in Glasgow’s city center. Check with your car rental agency in advance if you aren’t sure of the restricted areas to avoid.
  • Cheap car rentals in Glasgow are also available in major train stations across the city, such as Central Train Station and St. Enoch Train station. Car renters, for instance, can get and book their rental cars at Central Train station. You can find popular car rentals like SIXT and Europcar at this station. For instance, the SIXT car rental agency is situated just 500 meters from the station, near the Hope Street exit area. You can also book your vehicle online or you can visit the agency’s office to book your vehicle from there.
  • Being Scotland’s largest city, Glasgow has really great public transportation which includes both buses and a subway system. However, you’ll appreciate having a rental car to get to the rural areas and countryside to enjoy towns like Loch Lomond, Houston (known for its brewing companies), and Stirling (a great place for history buffs).
  • Glasgow is the largest city in Scotland. Renting a car from the Glasgow Airport is both easy and convenient. The rental car center is a short walk from both the main terminal and terminal 2. With over seven rental companies to choose from, you can rent everything from a compact car to an SUV or luxury vehicle for your business trip or vacation.
  • Along with getting used to driving on the left side of the road, you should be aware of bus lanes when driving in Glasgow and other cities in Scotland. Watch for designated bus lane markings and note that these lanes are designated for buses only during certain hours of the day. Note that cameras monitor the bus lanes looking for law breakers.
  • When driving around Glasgow, you’ll find that it gets busiest between the hours of 3 p.m. and 6 p.m., and in the early morning from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. it can be just as congested. During these hours you’ll especially want to avoid driving around the city center. Additionally, you’ll want to stay off of the City Bypass and highway M8. Watch the news for traffic reports regarding accidents and construction projects for specific updates.

Glasgow car rental experiences: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travelers who rented a car in Glasgow 
Verified travelerAug 2024
I use a separate car insurance car excess cover and it saves me a significant amount every year. I understand that in the case of a major accident, it would be a hassle to run through the separate insurer, but the saving is so material, it’s worth it. I much prefer the in terminal car rental firms. To be fair, they are located just outside the main terminal but it’s easily walkable and avoids the hassle of a shuttle bus. For fuel, there is a petrol station right at the Glasgow airport car return so don’t prepay the car rental firms. Fill it up right there and save yourself a significant sum.
Verified travelerApr 2024
All I would say is that it helps to know the roads a bit particularly around the pick up and drop off as Glasgow has a lot of one way streets including where Avis is located. Easy enough to find and it is a grid system but you need to pay attention.

Make sure to review what road signs mean before driving. Speed limits that are posted are in MPH. Roundabouts can be tricky in some parts of Scotland, so always be cautious when approaching.

FAQs about renting a car in Glasgow

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Glasgow?

    Roads throughout Scotland can be somewhat narrow, therefore you might want to consider renting a small, compact vehicle if there will be only 2 or 3 of you in the car. Additionally, as with many cities in Europe, cars with an automatic transmission are quite rare. Consequently, if you are not used to driving a stick shift, be sure to request an automatic when making your reservation.

  • What’s the speed limit in Glasgow?

    Signs are posted throughout the city noting the legal speed limits. When driving in and around the downtown area, you’ll need to drive at speeds of only 20 mph. However, once you are on the expressway, you can pick up the speed to a maximum of 70 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park in Glasgow?

    Finding a parking spot on the street of downtown Glasgow can be nearly impossible. Therefore off-street parking is the most popular option when in the city center. Many residents find it most convenient to park far away and take the subway (which offers an all-day parking fee) to city attractions such as Ibrox Stadium, Riverside Museum, or Glasgow Cathedral.

The car had been put through a car wash but I would not say it was clean or well presented. There were residual items on it. (Bird droppings). To be fair, I have rented cars from other providers at Glasgow airport and they are similar. This is more a “site problem” than an Avis problem. I hated the car - I would now actively avoid MG in any car rental. Awful. Not an Avis specific problem.

We had to change our drop off from Gatwick to Heathrow do to the airline canceling our flight and then rebooking us to fly from Heathrow... Avis accomodated...but for an added fee. Since Avis has a car rental site at both airports, a no added fee to drop off at a different airport would have been appreciated - particularly as we had no control over the flight change... Other than that - we were quite happy with our experience with Avis.

Staff were courteous. Main issue I had was the additional insurance I bought through Kayak which should have meant I did not have to take out any additional insurance with Europcar. Un less I gave a guaranteed credit card of $100k (which was not possible) then I was forced to take out Europcars CDW insurance as they refused to recognise the policy sold by Allianz from Kayak. Additionally the car had an alarm issue that wenbt off when the car was locked and it was impossible to contact the branch that I rented the car through. Overall not a good experience from both Kayak or Europcar.

Our flight was cancelled from London to Glasgow. There was no available alternate flight that day. We called Easirent to inform them we would pick car up next day. They refused our request, cancelled the booking, kept our money and said they would charge us more for not showing up. We had to rent another car next day, doubling the cost of rental for 1 day less use. Do not rent from this company, they are charlatans.

I had a horrible experience. The first thing you need to know is that easirent is no where near the airport. All other major carriers are. It was about a ten minute wait for the van, then another 10 minutes to the location. The rental office is a sketchy trailer with a single person working the desk. I was third in line and waited 30 minutes, only to be told my car was given away. I will admit I was 45 minutes late to pick up the car. They gave me a choice to rent a manual, which I could not do. I then scrambled, found a car on Enterprise ($400 more), and had them drive me back to the airport. All told: I lost an hour plus, missed a distillery tour ($100), and had one of the most frustrating experiences while traveling. In sum, pay the extra money, go to a known carrier on the airport premises.

Service was great, very friendly staff and quick check in and check out… wish they had a better car park as entering and exiting was very bunny and pothole filled… a larger sign would help location accuracy, and if the car park was paved then it would look much more inviting and appealing.

Worst rental car experience. Seems like they are looking to scam for any dent or scratch. I didn’t hit anything and they found a small dent in wheel area what was probably there before. I couldn’t even see it. The car already had scratches and other things from before. They are here to scam you would never used again.

Disappointed that the first thing I had to do was stop and put in screen wash !!! Scotland in December is NOT the time to drive without it and Green Motion are neglectful in not ensuring such safety checks !!!

I didn't ever receive my car.. When you sign up for the car it doesn't tell you that the £2500 deposit you need doesnt get returned for upto 2 months.. All this should be made aware before going to pick car up.. All in a rather embarrassing experience

Everything was great and very smooth pick up and drop off. Would use the service without any hesitation.

Pros:

Drop off was super easy. The person that handled the drop off/shuttle was super friendly and nice. They also picked us up from the airport, which is like a 2 minute drive so that was cool too. -The car was amazing! Massage drivers seat and a lot of fun features that I've never seen before.

Cons:

- Worth keeping in mind when looking around that you'll have to put down an above average deposit if you choose to go with your own credit card insurance (over 2,500gbp). If you choose to go with one of their options for insurance it will add a couple hundred to your bill. So if you think this is the more inexpensive option, you may be wrong with all the extras you'll have to get. -Make sure on pick up to take pictures of everything (even scratches and dents under 4cm or whatever they suggest) We were asked on drop off if we had a picture of a dent that we were told we didn't have to document on pickup. Luckily we had figured as much and had video/pics of it. -They had the tank filled just over half which I thought was odd, usually rental cars start with a full tank but that could just be my preference.

Pros:

nothing

Cons:

To be open later than 8 pm as they are at an airport they cancelled our reservation for all three days 4 hours after we hadn’t picked it up .

Pros:

Staff was dishonest with gas prices, check their word against the receipt. Also any tiny unnoticeable ding on the hubcap will be changed to you. Scotland is the worst place I ever rent cars.

Cons:

Service.

Excellent. I broke my shoulder the night before leaving for Scotland and we had a lot of luggage so they gave us an appropriate car for our new needs. Agents were helpful and friendly.

We experienced a very long wait to pick up the initial car. Vauxhall cross was in terrible condition and an awful car so we upgraded. Car was not cleaned and possibly hiding light scratches/ scuff marks in clear coat. Nail in tire resulted in vehicle being recovered and tire replaced/ not repaired. In the end we lost a full day of our holiday due to tire which we were charged for. Total additional costs 1200 pounds above and beyond rental.

My husband and I took a trip to Scotland, which we were very excited about. We reserved a car in advance, a manual gas vehicle, for our road trip all across the country. Upon arriving to pick up our vehicle, we were told that instead of a manual gas vehicle, they would be giving us an automatic electric vehicle. I voiced my discomfort to the staff at have an EV, but we were assured there were tons of charging stations all across the country and that we could “even charge at our hotel or Airbnbs” in the evenings. Unfortunately, none of the things the staff told us was true. There are not a lot of charging places in Scotland, we could consistently had to drive out of our way to reach them, but also most of them don’t take credit cards. It took us several days and many hours to figure out how to set up an account with the company that owns many of the charging stations, Chargeplace Scotland. Charging at our Airbnbs was also not really an option as it typically makes the hosts uncomfortable, and would get about a 20% charge for charging overnight. We spent over 16+ hours of our vacation either trying to find charging locations, waiting for a charging spot to open, driving to a charging location to find it was not working, or just sitting waiting for the car to charge. In lieu of our spoiled vacation, Hertz offered a $50 rental certificate, which does nothing for an entire ruined trip. I would not recommend using Hertz in Scotland, and if you travel to Scotland, do not let them talk you into an electric vehicle.
