KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Vancouver

  • Revered as the "Hollywood of the North" and ranked as the 3rd most livable place in the world, Vancouver makes for an ideal road trip. You're in for a treat, from the stunning architecture to natural beauty, including a culture heavily influenced by immigrants from Great Britain, France, Ireland, Asia, Africa and the Caribbean. To ensure hassle-free travels, split driving time by having an additional driver to your Vancouver cheap car rental reservation. While fees may vary by company, additional drivers must personally appear at the rental counter to present a valid driving license and pay the average daily fee.
  • Young Driver Vancouver car rentals are very popular with young revelers traveling as a group and want to book a passenger van, economy, midsize, full-size, minivan, or SUV vehicles. Bear in mind that the minimum age to rent a car in Vancouver is 21, with mandatory surcharges for renters under 25 years. When researching car rental agencies through a search aggregate like KAYAK, do your due diligence and read through the terms and conditions and vehicle rental contract page to make informed decisions on age requirements, rental period, acceptable payment methods, available cars and more.
  • When booking online or picking up your rental car at Vancouver International Airport (VIA), ask for optional extras such as a child safety seat, pre-paid fueling, navigation system, etc. While the roads in Vancouver are well-marked, it's a good idea to have a satellite navigation device when you want to map out your route or find various local attractions along the way. A GPS is ideal when you need the quickest, most-direct scenic routes and will save you time and money by suggesting alternative roads when there's a traffic delay.
  • The North Shore mountain range provides a picture perfect backdrop to the city of Vancouver -- visiting them during your travels is a must. Renting a car will give you the ability to access the mountain range and a long list of adventure activities. Having a car will give you the ability to go skiing or snowboarding on the world-renowned Cypress Mountain, or explore the spectacular views that hikes across Grouse Mountain and Mount Seymour have to offer.
  • Picking up a rental car at Vancouver International Airport (VIA) could not be simpler; rental company counters are located next to the baggage claim at both the Main and South terminals. VIA is conveniently located only 9 miles from downtown and you will arrive after approximately 30 minutes of driving.
  • Distances and speed limits are measured in kilometers throughout Canada, so be careful and adjust your driving to suit. Vancouver has numerous flashing green traffic lights, which mean you have the right to drive through the intersection but must approach cautiously and yield to pedestrians who may be crossing. Many cyclists are present on Vancouver roads, so it’s important to keep an active eye on your blind spots. Keep in mind that across the city there are some roads with separated bike lanes and roads where lanes are shared; be mindful in both situations to provide cyclists with a safe amount of room.
  • Like most major cities, rush hour in Vancouver can be frustrating and it is wise to avoid major arterial roads or driving altogether between 5 pm and 7 pm. Traffic can be especially bad on West Georgia Street in the evening and it is advisable to seek an alternative route. Also keep in mind that the bridges of Vancouver, such as the Alex Fraser, can clog up with congestion during peak times and, due to their narrow entries and exits, take a long time to open up again.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Vancouver for C$ 40 or less
  • Book your rental car in Vancouver at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate rental cars in Vancouver are around 9% cheaper than other car types, on average

Parking spaces in Vancouver are small, especially in parking garages downtown. Weather and road conditions in mountains north of Vancouver can require special tires. Our rental from enterprise was prepared for wherever we wanted to drive it.
TammyDec. 2023
Driving in Vancouver is very busy. You need to make sure you have your route planned before you head out and always be in the lane you will need to as soon as possible! It's very hard to do last minute lane changes in Vancouver especially around high traffic times.
JamesJan. 2024
In downtown areas, drive slowly, many streets are one ways, and a lot of bicycles and pedestrians. A lot of traffic lights, give yourself extra time.
NicoleFeb. 2024
Use your google maps. And try to stay in the inside lanes as outside lanes are often used as parking spots as well.
Verified travelerFeb. 2024
A lot of one way streets in Vancouver. If travelling further outside in BC be mindful of changing road conditions
Verified travelerDec. 2023
It was good, but the listed address is not the correct address where they’re located.
Verified travelerSep. 2023
Driving in Vancouver feels similar to most large cities. Street parking or garages are best. It’s easiest to find a garage in a central place and walk around. You could likely enjoy Vancouver without a car, we also went to Whistler where a vehicle was necessary.

Recommend using public transport in Vancouver but booking a car hire for travel in BC to minimise parking costs and the issues of driving in an unknown city.

Driving in downtown Vancouver can be a bit challenging with traffic but we were always able to find parking somewhere. The public parking is fairly inexpensive (compared to Montreal) and there were many electric car charging stations in the city if you chose to rent an electric vehicle.
DebJun. 2023
Our routes were easy to find with the map on the dashboard! There was quite a bit of traffic in downtown Vancouver, and we had to go right through the centre of town to get to the airport.
Verified travelerJul. 2023
The roads are narrow compared to the roads in Ontario. However, it is more convenient to rent a car if you are planning to leave the metro Vancouver area such as Richmond, North Vancouver, Whistler, Seattle, etc.

if you have multiple passengers, try find car pool lane to beat the traffic. people are nice and polite in downtown. so just ask them if you get lost.

Be mindful of cyclists. This is a very cyclist heavy city. Always check your mirrors before opening your doors, do shoulder checks, etc.

Vancouver was easy. People drive with civility.
Verified travelerJun. 2023
Drive under speed limit; Vancouver has a bustling pedestrian, bike, and e-everything on the roads, walkways, bike paths, etc. Similar to other older cities, roads are narrow and congested, so drive cautiously and know where you are going. Use a good GPS to find quickest routes around traffic.
Verified travelerJun. 2023
Give LOTS of time for getting around due to traffic. Or really pay attention to peak traffic times. Or definitely park and ride the sky train (especially downtown). Keep your distance, because people like to tail others than have to break abruptly.

Firstly, when I arrived at the pick up location, the associate did not great me. Granted, he was on the computer tending to a customer that was in the waiting area, but he could've looked up to acknowledge I was there and would be with me when this current transaction was done. Second, admittedly, I wasn't paying attention when I made the rental and clicked suppliers choice. This associate gleefully told me he would be giving me a minivan unless I chose to pay an additional $10 per day for a smaller car. He also gleefully added that when he was at the airport, he would give travellers pick up trucks on purpose, as his way of punishing people for picking "suppliers choice". I opted for the $10 additional fee because I didn't want to deal with a minivan, but when I got to the garage, there was no cars in the garage except for a Hyundai Elantra and a Tesla. My suspicion is there was no minivan in the first place and I would like this fee reimbursed. Moreover, seeing that there were smaller vehicles, that means it was his discretion to give me a smaller car even if I did accidentally choose suppliers choice, but he smugly chose not to. Finally, when I drove the car the following day to Seattle, there was alert that my tire pressure was low. Turns out, not all gas stations have pumps and it took me 30 minutes to get to one. While the car indicated that the left rear tire was extremely low, turns out, all 4 tires needed to be pumped. The cost was $3.50 and I would like to be reimbursed for that cost. I would also appreciate additional reimbursement for the inconvenience, but I will let you decide what you think is appropriate. I can provide photographs of the tire pressure if necessary.

I feel having a phone system that allows call to be answered and messages received would be helpful. When we were running late and called to tell them no one answered and the mailbox was full. We could not leave a message. As a consequence the car we reserved was given to someone else.

Pros:

They did not have my car although I specifically called to make sure the car was going to be there. I was on the phone with the reservations central for about an hour and they refused to talk to the office people. They sent me to Hertz (next door) for double the price, who has the same owner. SCAM !

Pros:

Great car, drove well, man at the counter was really nice.

Cons:

They didn't seem to know anything about the online booking system that I used, I ended up paying almost double because I wanted a GPS system which upgraded me to a nicer vehicle. However, I booked a Rav4 which is pretty comparable to a Chevy Esquire. I just feel like I overpaid for the upgrade.

I had confirmation that a car would be available but when I arrived they didn’t have a car available and sent me to another location 20 minutes drive away which caused us to miss our ferry reservation. This could have been avoided if they’d rung me in advance and not to be told when I turned up!

My flight back to hometown was at 7am, but Europcar opens at 8am. They did not have a shuttle service to get us back to the airport. We had to get two taxis since it was 5 of us with 5 luggage. This was around 120$ extra.

The car I was given was extremely loud, making me feel very unsafe driving it. Probably a first generation hybrid, hence the noise, but I question if fit to drive at all. I also asked for a receipt upon returning the car. It was denied saying the company does not allow that. It makes no sense. How can one prove they returned the car if they can't have a receipt ? First time I hear this. The two different clerks were pleasant otherwise.

Pros:

I prepaid online and reserved my car to pick up at 8. Arrived at 8 to find no one there, had to call and ask for someone to help me out. I reserved the car at a specific time for a reason, and I wasn’t getting out of there with the car until after 9. A bit ridiculous in my eyes, Such a lack of care to their costumers. Oh wait there’s more. I bought insurance prior on kayak, but not straight from rent-a-car. Resulting in them withholding a massive fee on my credit card and saying I owe them nearly a grand to replace a windshield because of a tiny chip in the windshield due to driving on the highway. I’ve rented cars before and have never dealt with this kind of thing. No windshield replacement should be that much, and the chip is so minor it could easily be filled for very cheap. But instead rent a car is money grabbing and taking advantage of me. In the process of trying to figure out my claim with the third party insurance, which of course has not been easy. All in all I’m extremely upset by my experience and would recommend you go else where to rent a car.

Cons:

Don’t rent from here!

The customer service is not great. I asked to add the insurance a couple of time and they never got it done. I called to change the car since we didn't order a basic mini suv, but I needed to go to Richmond to make the change. The car was very dirty and damaged and the tires were not great. The value was good but I'm now dealing with the customer service again for the return. They asked me to pay for the damages when a claim was sent to my insurance company since they couldn't do it properly with their insurance the first time around.
