Be sure and review the vehicle before leaving the rental area.
Verified travelerJul 2023
Go slow watch traffic signs , we got turned around a few times, but quickly figured things out. Get a paper map. It really helps with the “big” picture look of the area.
Verified travelerAug 2023
Please check the car inside out and make sure all is in order before renting out, particularly when there is an expired license plate…..

Make sure you check all damage before leaving the lot.

KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Great Falls

  • Exploring new regions and their attractions is fun, more so if you have a convenient means to help you do so. If you are in Great Falls, MT, consider taking up cheap car rentals in Great Falls and driving to some of the renowned attractions found in Helena and Cascade. For instance, you may drive to the Gates of the Mountains to marvel at the flora, fauna, and other attractions the national park offers. The park is approximately 79.5 miles away from Great Falls City center, and it will take you about 1 hour and 22min via the I-15 N to get there.
  • Great Falls car rentals are only available to drivers with a minimum age of 21 and a valid driver's license, which must have been issued at least three years ago. However, you must be 25 or older when booking a car at an airport car rental office. International travelers cannot use an International Driving Permit solely as an ID; they may be asked for additional documentation.
  • Those arriving at Great Falls Airport can rent a car within the airport. The airport has several car rental agencies within its premises. These include National Car Rental, Enterprise Car Rental, Avis Car rental, Hertz Car Rental, Budget Car Rental, and Alamo Car Rental. You can conveniently locate these car rental agencies at 2800 Terminal Drive.
  • Choosing an electric vehicle for your cheap car rental in Great Falls enables you to enjoy an emission-free ride. There are about 35 public charging stations in Great Falls, Montana. Ten of them provide free services. If you pick a fast-charging model, use one of the 13 DC charging outlets, including 8 Tesla superchargers. Fast DC charging is crucial if you're planning to drive long distances or a larger electric vehicle.
  • When driving car rentals in Great Falls, you should be mindful of cyclists. The bicycle laws in the city allow them to share the roads with motorists. Therefore, as you approach them, be sure to give way where necessary and overtake when safe to do so. Additionally, pay attention to pedestrians crossing the streets. Jaywalking is common, so be watchful of pedestrians coming into sight without warning.
  • You can rent a booster seat or a rear-facing baby seat at your respective car rental desk in Great Falls, MT. According to the law, children aged 0 - 6 years or weighing less than 60 pounds require child safety seats while riding in a vehicle. It is advisable to put any child below four years in a rear-facing seat. Older kids should continue using forward-facing booster seats until they attain a height of 4 feet and 9 inches.
  • Like any other city in the United States, Great Falls experiences traffic, especially during the morning rush hour commute. Traffic starts to build up from about 6.30 am up to around 9 am. Avoid driving your car rentals in Great Falls at this time of the day, or find alternative routes with less traffic when navigating to your destination. In addition, some routes, such as 1st Avenue North is affected by snow during winter, reducing the lanes to two.

Commuting through all the streets within the city will be hassle-free with these types of Great Falls car rentals. During the winter, you can opt for a standard SUV with better ground clearance. This will help you easily navigate snow-filled streets and prevent you from getting stuck in the snow.

  • Which are the popular routes for road trips in Great Falls?

    The I-15 Highway to the north is the route drivers take often when traveling from Great Falls to Canada. Central Ave, which cuts across the city center, will lead you to most religious houses and education centers. Driving along River Drive N, you can find the waterfalls for which the region is named. On this drive, you can also enjoy spectacular views of nature at the Rainbow Scenic Overlook. There's a parking lot for the overlook and various paved hiking trails that lead to different waterfalls.

  • What is the speed limit in Great Falls?

    Generally, the speed limit of urban stretches in Great Falls is 65 mph. However, when driving your rental vehicle within the city, note that the speed limit in residential areas is 25 mph and that of two-lane roads is 65 – 70 mph. Going above these speed limits could land you in trouble with the law, with many receiving speeding tickets as well as license suspension. Therefore, if you would like to drive your vehicle comfortably in the city, consider being keen on the set speed limits of every street and road.

  • Will I pay extra for an additional driver if I get a Great Falls car rental?

    When accompanied by a friend or co-worker with whom you'll be exchanging the driver's seat, you must register them at the rental desk. They must avail themselves and show a valid ID and driving permit. The amount charged for an extra driver is added to the total rental cost. The rate accrues daily for each additional driver and depends on the company's policy. Generally, companies offering cheap car rentals in Great Falls will consider your domestic partner (spouse) your co-driver, so you don't have to pay a surcharge. However, your spouse must have a valid driver's license and meet the minimum age requirement.

  • Where are the best places to park in Great Falls?

    When it comes to parking, there is a wide selection of spots where you can park your vehicle in Great Falls. Free parking includes Great Falls Public Library, Great Falls Police Department, and Cascade County Courthouse. Other essential parking spots are North Garage and 1300 3rd Street Northwest. You can also park your rental car in designated curbside parking. Check the signs to know the duration you are allowed to park your vehicle at the spot. Most parking rules are enforced from Monday to Friday from around 9 am to 5 pm, and Saturdays from 9 am to 2 pm.

I had a late night flight and the had to walk a ways into the poorly lit parking lot to get my rental car once it was rented. Maybe have the cars moved closer to the terminal especially for late night arrivals.

After a long day of travel, the customer service was top notch, and took all of 10 minutes. I had my car faster than I had my luggage :) The vehicle was clean, and for the first time ever when renting a car, it did not smell like cigarettes.

Staff member at Great Falls Budget counter was rude and disrespectful. First car broke down on freeway only 19 miles from airport. . Roadside assistance was good but exchange service back at airport was terrible. Again I was treated by same rude employee making me feel like problem was my fault. Employee made me initial paper taking vehicle as is. . Replacement car was dirty, smelled of cigarette smoke, and the tire pressure and change oil lights came on during the trip. I had tires checked and filled to correct PSI during trip. My elderly mother who has COPD had to breathe in the smoke smell our entire trip. While initial Kayak reservation experience was great, the Budget was not. As a result I will not use Budget again.

I was bummed they didn’t have a clean car ready when I reserved one in advance. I did get a free upgrade on a dirty vehicle which was great. Drop off in Belgrade was amazing, just had to pull up and leave the keys inside. I don’t love EV’s but the car upgrade was fun because the sound system was good and the car had lumbar support.
