KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Calgary

  • Get to see most parts of Calgary in the comfort of your own cheap car rental. Most likely, you will want to visit Prince’s Island Park, which is a 7-minute drive or approximately 2.2miles (3,5km) from the city center, or tour the famous Calgary Tower before heading to main downtown spots such as Fort Calgary and Bow River. On weekends, you may drive 9.7 miles (15.6km) from downtown Calgary to Bowmont Park to enjoy the city’s spectacular views or drive west, a distance of around 46.7 miles (75.1km), to have a picturesque view of Kananaskis mountainous areas. Choose your ride from the available Calgary car rentals and have some fun while your vacation lasts.
  • Rent a vehicle from Downtown Calgary to conveniently travel around and outside the city for official or tourism reasons. The car hire companies in downtown make it easy for you to pick out the best set of wheels for your travel needs. Choose your perfect rental car from companies such as Hertz, Alamo, Avis, Enterprise, Dollar, Driving Force, Budget, and Thrifty and venture out and about whenever and wherever you feel like doing so during your stay in Calgary. All you need to do is to visit one of the numerous car hire offices in central Calgary, especially along the 1st Street or Macleod Trail corridor, present your car booking documents, pick up the vehicle of your choice and start your exploration in style.
  • If you are looking to drive around Calgary, you need to know that the city uses the metric system. What this means is that all distances and speed limits are marked in kilometers. The city also makes it mandatory for drivers and even passengers to wear seat belts at all times. Plus, the city makes it illegal to use mobile devices or cell phones while driving. In the winter months, check with the local meteorological department for weather reports and real-time driving conditions before getting around. Make sure to confirm with the Department of Motor Vehicles in Calgary for new traffic laws before picking up your car rental.
  • Calgary is a paradise for lovers of the great outdoors. Situated at the junction of the Bow and Elbow Rivers and with the Canadian Rockies on your doorstep, exploring the surroundings of Calgary is a dream with a rental car. The world famous Banff National Park is only a little over an hour’s drive west and will leave you awestruck with the picturesque turquoise glacial lakes, untouched wilderness, and natural hot springs. Canada’s third largest city by population is located nearly 3,500 feet above sea level and has something to offer for every willing traveler.
  • Once you land at Calgary International Airport and collect your baggage, follow the signage to the Car Rental Center elevator. On the second level you will find the counters of multiple major car rental companies including Hertz, Avis, Budget, and Thrifty. The drive from the airport to downtown is seamless along the AB-2 S Highway and will only take approximately 25 minutes. If you are heading to Banff National Park you can either take the Highway 1, which will allow you to pass through Calgary on the way, or the Stoney Trail (201) Highway, which is a more direct route.
  • Canada, and specifically the mountain range, is blessed with wildlife that sometimes feels an explorative urge and wanders onto the roads. Be mindful when driving and keep an attentive eye out for animals. If you do approach any hazardous animals, remember to drive carefully and reduce speed.
  • Thanks to its higher altitude, Calgary can experience significant snowfall in the winter months, causing difficult driving conditions. The roads are designed to best deal with this snowfall; however it is important that you follow some simple tips to increase your safety. Scrape any accumulated snow off your car before driving, paying extra attention to the windows and headlights. Listen to weather reports and adhere to any warnings; the city has a Traffic Advisory station which you can tune in to at 106.5 FM. Be mindful to reduce your speed when driving in poor conditions and be extra cautious around pedestrians.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Calgary for $35 or less
  • Book your rental car in Calgary at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Off-airport rental car locations in Calgary are around 8% cheaper than airport locations on average
  • Supplier choice rental cars in Calgary are around 69% cheaper than other car types, on average

If you plan on doing a lot of hiking outside of Calgary namely, in Banff and Jasper NP's, be sure and book an AWD vehicle. Glad we were upgraded from a sedan!
Verified travelerOct 2024
Ask for the winter tires if you planned on going in the Rockies in October and later.
Verified travelerJul 2024
Hertz’s customer service was very satisfactory.
Verified travelerJun 2024
Make sure the vehicle is full of gas upon pick up. The gas tank indicator on the instrument panels on many vehicles are not very accurate, and can be off by a considerable amount of litres of gas. Also give yourself enough time for the return of the vehicle, especially if you have to catch a flight. This rental agency is very busy.
Verified travelerAug 2024
QEEQ is a good booking agent. If driving across provinces and dropping off in a difference province check the fuel prices at destination before picking up vehicle and deciding to pre-pay fuel. When booking, check whether the car has in car navigation activated and if CarPlay is enabled

Rent at Enterprice. Fair deals and good customer service. Never go to Budget. We learned it the hard way. Next year we will be renting at Enterprice again!

Easy to get around. Did not take winter tire package and was still fine on city roads.
MoniqueSep 2023
We were in Canmore. The drive to Canmore was easy and the road great. The nearest gas station we found to fill the car before returning it was at 430 Country Hills blvd NE, T3K 5A5. It is at 8 minutes from Budget.
RussellSep 2023
The roads are excellent and traffic is busy but nothing like LA. Parking downtown can be a little expensive, but it is nice to see such nice accommodations for walking paths, bike paths, parks and scooter rentals if you are not driving around.

A fantastic idea, glad I decided to rent be shuttle. Driving in Calgary is super easy and the highways to Banff are wide and not congested. Was a very pleasant drive getting around!!

Calgary is very car-focused so driving is pretty easy. The place is very sprawled out, and though their transit system (especially light rail) are great, driving makes life a bit easier.

Do not use Thrifty. Use Enterprise - they were excellent and found a car for me at short notice

Leave some distance with trucks on highway. They can spray your windsheald with snow, and you wont see anything infront of you for a few seconds.

We scheduled an Uber driver to pick us up when we dropped off the car and put the key in the night box and everything went perfect . They are only open week days from 9 to 5. If you can make that work , they are great. It worked perfect for us.
Verified travelerAug 2023
We paid a small additional fee to return our car to the airport instead of back to where we got it from which would’ve been out of the way and a hassle.
Verified travelerJul 2023
Layout of Calgary is very simple. Several major roadways (“trails”) get you to the area of your destination. Smaller streets and avenues branch off from there.
Verified travelerJul 2023
Calgary is a large spread out city. We would have been lost without Maps on our cell. We got around Calgary very easy with it.

Study the main thoroughfares on the map to understand the general flow of traffic in and out of the core areas and expect construction all the time - it’s a growing city that never stops expanding.

Find out if a shuttle to car rental part. Ask for a clean car. Watch all the upselling attempts. Gas goes far in Calgary.

Had a problem with Banff city parking over a weekend. Parked the vehicle and while purchasing parking pass, some one kept a ticket for parking violation.

Pick up and driving was all good. When I dropped it off they more so blamed me for all the damages that were already on it and that I went over with the rep before I drove off with it. An OK experience though.

Have only used Hertz one other time before this trip, probably because their rates are typically higher than the more budget minded rental car companies, but my two experiences now with Hertz have taught me that you get what you pay for. Hertz was a case in point.

They where able to change my reservation for a bigger vehicle without problems. The only issue we had is that they wouldn't accept my visa debit card. Luckily I had my back up credit card with me, even though it was an emergency and I was stuck at the airport. If my credit card wouldn't work I would have not been able to pay with any other form of legal tender, no matter how much deposit you could provide. Otherwise good service

I rented a car one-way from Calgary airport with a drop off in Banff. I rented the car at about noon and return the car in Banff approx. 7:00pm. I told them I’d be arriving to Banff after they closed at 6:00pm and I was told to put the keys on the drop box. It took me forever to find the parking and when I did find it. I followed the Avis return signs. Once I made about 2 turns down the parking garage, I came to a sign that said the Avis rental car return was closed and to go back up a level. I did this, I found a place to park and went upstairs and dropped the keys in the drop box. I had the car approx. 7 hours total. Today, 4 days later, I got a call from Avis asking if I still had the rental car that was supposed to be returned on the 12th. I told him all of this and I still have not heard back, I still have a huge charge on my credit card and no receipt. Absolute WORST experience!!!

I showed up after reserving my car and was told there was only a smaller car available. I was told the cost would remain the same despite the car being a small SUV.

The car we were provided was amazing! (They upgraded us to an SUV) It was so easy to pick up and drop off. The customer service was so good. Quick and painless. The only thing that could be improved was the cleanliness of the vehicle. It had some crumbs on the seats and a spilled ice cream mark on the back seat. This has never happened before so I am assuming that they just had a ton of rentals back to back during the busy stampede week. Nothing that a quick vacuum before we left couldn't fix. 😁

Terrible. Chaotic pickup where I surprisingly had to provide proof of insurance, sign different documents every couple minutes, and wait for the employees to prepare the vehicle—things that should have been done in advance. Scammy. They tried to claim previous damage to the vehicle was my fault—that I chipped the windshield. They wanted to charge me $700. When I disputed it and said I had photos of the vehicle, they reversed their decision. Avoid this company.

On Kayak's website, it stated that the rental car came with unlimited mileage. However, when I arrived to pick up the car, I was informed that there was actually a limit and I would have to pay extra for every kilometer over that limit. The rental location was in disarray, with a dirty floor and overflowing garbage. Despite standing there for a while, no one approached me to assist with my reservation until I had to ask for help. I did not proceed with the reservation and let’s say this would be my last time booking or trusting kayak or that rental company.

Overall: if you have time and patience, it might be worth it. But, be aware that you are sacrificing efficiency for those savings. If your time is money, recommend finding another option. Professionalism: The staff were incredibly overworked but also did not move with a sense of urgency. Customer Experience: Lineup of customers looking to drop off keys and pick up their rental were combined. It took 45 minutes before getting service. Cleanliness: The location was incredibly messy. Value for Money: the price is ok, as long as you have your own insurance (they will upsell you). (The Routes franchise would likely be very concerned by the overall experience at this location, not great for the brand)

Pickup was very poor. The staff at the front desk were very nice and professional. The problems began when selecting and picking up the car. We were asked to check the condition of a black car in an closed garage with poor lighting. Next to impossible. Then you have to show the problems to an agent who has some sort of screen to look further. About a dozen people were all leaving at once and so it took the better part of an hour from being shown the car to actually leaving the airport. Once we got it out into the light it was obvious we had missed a scratch. Upon dropping off, the process was very fast. However I wasn't given a receipt, and the one promised to my email never came. So now I have to chase it down. The car itself was otherwise fine, and was problem free.

The National Car Rental staff at the YYC (Calgary) were super efficient and helpful. We got a brand new Chrysler Pacifica. The car itself was excellent. The gas tank was only three-quarters full, however. We noted that as we were exiting. The lady at the exit was kind enough to mark it as only half full. The drop off was also great, with super friendly staff upon arrival. We very much recommend National Car Rental at YYC.

The drop off/pick up is outside of the airport. If you need to drop off the car early and they are closed you have to drop off the car and take an Uber or taxi to the airport at your own cost. Just a heads up when booking.

This company and Qeeq were not willing to hold my car until my arrival at the airport and charged me a day rental for canceling the car even though I had pre-paid Would not recommend them as they are hard to deal with

I paid for the rental but my husband was doing the driving. This was not allowed and wehad to add me as a driver for 10 /day. I thought this was unnecessary and we have not encountered this before.

They called me when I was on my way and had no cars. The address featured on the site was also incorrect. This was extremely frustrating and ruined my trip, Driving Force should not be on Kayak because all the information is wrong and they blamed me for it instead of taking accountability for their online information being wrong. They were kind on the phone but still, this is unacceptable

Aggressive unnecessary upselling of insurance cover. Horrendous customer service. Would never use again and would definitely never recommend. Vile company.

STAY AWAY!!! The car was advertised with unlimited miles when booking. At the rental station they said that they have their own policy and only allow 200km/day. Even after opening a claim that was not changed. Additionally, very slow pickup process and every person that was with me at the rental station in Calgary had either issues with the KM, out of province policy or insurance policy. TOTAL RIP OFF

I must have phoned the number at the airport, the 1-888 number and gone on the website to cancel the reservation 10 times. The phone numbers were useless, nobody ever picked up and the online took multiple tries to get a confirmation cancellation, I finally went to another company and would not ever try the company again.

Pros:

The actual car was nice

Cons:

The car reaked of the guys cologne, it was also dirty when he gave it to us. The guy was not very friendly and when he dropped us off back at the airport, I had asked him if he could drop us near the taxi section and he dropped us off in a dead zone of the airport really far from the taxis with all our luggage and skis...

There was not an airport shuttle as advertised. Just a car that could not fit everyone at once. Also there was a mandatory insurance charge added at the pickup that was not disclosed by kayak. Then a mileage fee that was also not disclosed previously. I ended up paying $100 more to ace than what was advertised on kayak for only a 2 day rental. Id have never booked through kayak if I knew that would be the case and i wont be doing it again.

My first time renting a car through kayak. Terrible experience. - ace is not located at the airport despite description - had to call and wait for 20 min for shuttle pick up - no greeting by driver - pick up location in middle of nowhere - held 500.00 on my cc - needed my personal vehicle license plate number - I will never use this rental company again.
