KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Limerick

  • Car rentals in Limerick provide the freedom and flexibility to explore Limerick city at your pace and schedule. Unlike public transport options, using a rental car will enable you to visit as many attractions in the city as you would like and without relying on fixed schedules from public transport options. Several attractions in Limerick are more accessible by car, including Glenstal Abbey, Curraaghchase Forest Park, Lough Gur, Knockparick Gardens, and Curraghchase Carriage Museum, which you can visit when using a rental car to explore the city.
  • Shannon Airport (SNN) is about 24 km (15 miles) northwest of Limerick. The car rental agencies on-site at the airport include Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Europcar, Hertz, and Thrifty. To rent a car from the car rentals in Limerick at SNN, have counters in the Arrivals Hall of the terminal building just past the baggage claim area. Car rentals in Limerick have requirements for renting a car, including meeting the age limits. You must also have a valid driver's license, credit card, and identification documents to rent a vehicle from the Limerick car rental companies at SNN.
  • Limerick is a busy city. Therefore, you can expect to encounter many pedestrians, especially near tourist attractions and school zones. Be cautious when driving around such areas and look out for pedestrians as they may cross the road without warning. The city has various roundabouts, so ensure you follow the rules for roundabouts, yield to vehicles in the roundabout, and correctly indicate when exiting. Limerick has several one-way streets. Therefore, pay attention to the signage to ensure you are driving on the right side of the road.
  • Limerick experiences rush hours from 7:30 am to 9:30 am and from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm when most residents commute to and from work. Avoid using the major roads, including Motorway 7 and N18, during rush hours as they may experience more traffic congestion during rush hours. Different areas in the city center, including shopping centers and tourist attractions, get busy throughout the day, which causes heavier traffic in such areas; therefore, consider using alternative routes or walking in these locations as driving can be slow and challenging due to large volumes of pedestrians.

The speed limits may vary with time; therefore, ensure you check for speed signage along the roads. The city also has speed cameras in various locations to monitor the speed limits; therefore, ensure you drive within the set speed limit to avoid any possible penalties.
