Top tips for renting a car in Saskatoon
- If you're looking to explore with your cheap car rentals in Saskatoon, check out some of the key roads. The Yellowhead Road is the longest route in Saskatoon and passes directly through downtown. The Motorway is another key road serving as the city's primary thoroughfare. Another significant thoroughfare that provides easy access to different regions of Saskatoon is Circle Drive, which runs in a circle around the city. 22nd Street is a prominent east-west thoroughfare that links the central business district to the surrounding suburbs. Both Warman Road and Wanuskewin Road provide easy access north and south of the city.
- In Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, the minimum age to hire a car from Saskatoon car rentals is 21. You need a driver's licence that you've had for at least a year in order to hire a vehicle. A credit card in good standing is also required for the rental. The car rental provider and the kind of vehicle being leased will both determine any extra restrictions that will be necessary. For instance, the minimum age for hiring a luxury vehicle at certain rental providers is 25. Additionally, extra documentation, such as evidence of insurance or a deposit, may be required by certain rental operators.
- If you're looking for a smooth traffic flow while riding your cheap car rentals in Saskatoon, know the city's toll policy. The major toll road is Circle Drive South, a motorway that connects the city's main arteries and provides a convenient means to circumnavigate it. Tolls are collected using an automated system on the Circle Drive South toll road, which is administered and operated by the Saskatoon Motorway Authority. Other Saskatoon toll roads include the Chief Mistawasis Bridge and the Idylwyld Motorway, both of whose operations are managed by the Saskatchewan Transportation Company. A combination of manual and automated systems is used for collecting tolls on these highways.
- It is highly recommended that visitors of Saskatoon reserve a rental vehicle for their time in the city due to the lack of public transportation. Though there are public buses available in Saskatoon, the service is limited to the core downtown area. Additionally, the service slows down in the evening, making transit times particularly lengthy compared to driving one’s personal vehicle.
- Planning on renting a car during your time in Saskatoon? If so and your flight lands at Saskatoon International Airport, you can go straight to the rental car counters, located in the Arrivals Hall of the airport, while the rental cars themselves are in the P2 Parking Lot.
- Using, holding, and even viewing a hand-held cell phone in Saskatoon and throughout Saskatchewan is strictly forbidden. However, drivers may use hands-free cell phones that can be operated with voice commands when driving. If you cannot use voice commands with your cell phone, just make sure to play it safe and have your passengers operate your phone for you.
- Visitors of Saskatoon will rejoice to hear that it does not suffer from the same congestion and rush hour issues that plague many other metropolitan areas in Canada. However, there is still some minor rush hour traffic during the work week. On a typical day, the morning rush hour starts at about 7:00 a.m. and cools down by around 9:00 a.m. In the afternoon, the congestion builds back up again shortly after 4:00 p.m. and clears out at around 6:00 p.m. Circle Drive, the ring road surrounding the city, often bears the brunt of the traffic during rush hour and drivers should avoid it if possible.
