KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Barrie
- Visit Canada’s beautiful city of Barrie and enjoy one of the country’s fast-growing areas in terms of tourism and popularity. Cheap car hire in Barrie is an excellent way to explore this coastal region, based just 1h away from the city of Toronto. With a thriving waterfront boasting exciting activities and stunning beaches for summer days, Barrie also delights in the winter as a playground for sport and nature lovers. The city is home to a myriad of arts and culture festivals throughout the year as well as local theatres, music venues, museums and galleries.
- If collecting your cheap car hire in Barrie from the Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), you will find the car hire area based on Level 1 of the airport’s car park. Here you can find big names in car hire such as Dollar, Thrifty, Iversta Rentals Inc, Hub Rent A Car, SURPRICE CAR RENTAL and many others. If you need a shuttle to escort you to the car hire area, all the companies can provide one with ease.
- Cheap car hire in Barrie will be a liberating, fun way to see the city, as the landscape is vast and far better seen with the independence of free travel. The roads are well maintained and signed and although Barrie has a large French population, signs are predominantly in English. Cars will mostly be automatic transmission, so if you prefer manual, ensure you request it with your booking. While Canadian highways do have occasional toll roads, they are not that common and shouldn’t cost too much unless you are planning to road trip. The wide roads with glorious views will make beach front cruising a pleasure.
- The most challenging part of driving your Barrie car hire will be in the winter months, when snow is very prevalent in the area. Heavy snow, white-out conditions, and black ice can be daunting even for experienced drivers and, at times, snow chains on your tyres will be a must. Always make sure you pack a scraper for the windscreen too. Some of the terrain in Barrie is hilly and steep, but the real hassle is the 401 Road, which tends to suffer from quite congested traffic towards the south in the mornings, and again towards the north in afternoon rush hour.
- Book your rental car in Barrie at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

What type of car is recommended for driving in Barrie?
When considering your choices for car hire in Barrie, it will depend on your itinerary as the area holds quite a diverse terrain. The city is based in a valley with steep hills and has fantastic countryside worth exploring with an SUV. A high-performance sports car is always a thrill in the summer months when taking in coastal views and beach roads, but for the average driver, Barrie is easy and hassle-free for driving, making a compact economy or saloon a great choice for getting around locally.
What is the speed limit in Barrie?
Take speed limits in Barrie seriously, as speeding can result in licence suspensions and fines. Canada observes the speed limit in kilometres. Stick to 50 km (31 mph) in an urban area or city centre, 80 km (50 mph) when on two-lane main roads and 100 km (62 mph) when out on the highways. Be observant when driving along beach roads or areas where pedestrians could step out into the traffic, and reduce speeds if necessary.
Where are the best places to park in Barrie?
When it comes to parking your car hire in Barrie, you will need to take the time of year into consideration. Winter months don’t allow on-street parking between midnight and 7:00 due to cars freezing in the streets. In summer, you will be allowed to park your car on the street but this will be limited to 2 hours. If visiting the waterfront area, you can park for a flat fee of $10 (around £6) an hour. Downtown, it is often easier to find a car park such as the Collier Street Parkade, which charges $1.50 (around £0.9) per hour or the 24-hour operational Barrie Federal Building.
