You can quickly drive to Winsport, northwest of Calgary’s downtown and about a 17-minute drive via Bow Trail SW, and if you have the time, you can take a 90-minute day trip to Banff and Lake Louise for a picnic and viewing of the picture-perfect turquoise waters of the lake.

They did not have the Rent-A-Car. I reserved when I arrived to pick it up. I was told there were no cars available whatsoever. That left me completely stranded at the airport. I was then offered a vehicle that was an upgrade for an additional $50 a day, but they would not approve my secondary driver because it was an upgraded vehicle. My entire trip was based on renting a vehicle with two drivers. I was going to stay and the secondary driver was going to return the vehicle back to the Calgary airport. Because the car was not available for us. I had to drive eight hours to return the car. I will never rent from dollar/thrifty/Hertz again.Reviewed 19 Mar 2025

Everything was done just the way I like it to be. The pickup process was very brief and I was out of the airport quickly. The drop off was even faster. The car met my needs entirely and was in pristine shape.Reviewed 20 Jun 2024
