KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Niagara Falls

  • What better way to explore the Canadian natural wonder of Niagara Falls than with your own transport? Cheap car hire in Niagara Falls will offer the opportunity to not only explore one of the most visited tourist sites in the world but also put you close enough to New York to take an amazing weekend drive to the Big Apple. Drive up to Niagara on the Lake and see this peaceful region and make sure you stop at a few of Ontario’s famous winelands too. Wherever your cheap Niagara Falls car hire itinerary takes you, you will be in for one of the most impressive trips of your life.
  • When choosing cheap Niagara Falls car hire, you will find two primary companies based in the city: Budget and Avis. If you are flying into the region, you may make use of Pearson International Airport (YYZ). Here you will find car hire companies such as Thrifty, Payless, Dollar and others. The airport is based just under 2 hours from Niagara Falls by car. Alternatively, Toronto Island Airport (YTZ) is also about the same distance away and has an Avis, Budget and EZ Rent-A-Car on site.
  • Driving your cheap car hire in Niagara Falls is a great solution for making the most out of this region. When you are driving in Canada, you will always drive on the right-hand side of the road. You will be expected to be patient, and with so many motorways and expressways in the Niagara Falls surrounds, you will definitely need to be comfortable before setting off in your Niagara Falls car hire. The law requires seatbelts at all times and the blood alcohol limit of 0.08% is enforced. While Canadian drivers may be patient and polite, the area of Niagara Falls is a very tourist-heavy region, meaning locals are not the only ones on the roads.
  • When driving Niagara Falls car hire, you will find the primary challenge is peak-season tourism traffic. The main road taking you to the falls will be Queen Elizabeth Way, and Niagara Parkway and Falls Avenue are all affected very badly by congestion. A GPS is advisable to reduce your time on the road. Niagara Falls has extreme weather in winter, with snow and sleet being a reality. If you are visiting in colder months, ensure you are very comfortable driving on Canadian roads.
  • Book your rental car in Niagara Falls at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy rental cars in Niagara Falls are around 43% cheaper than other car types, on average

Customer service was good. Was told if I brought it back a couple hours past due I'd be charged 30 bucks an hour. I was charged for another whole day. Wasn't sure what the problem was.

Everything was great except, having to wait business day(S) to get security deposit returned and going by the email I received when I returned vehicle it looks like they are charging more than was agreed upon. We will see in the next few days..

Pros:

I liked how pleasant the staff was in niagara when we picked up the car. I liked the car we had.

Cons:

The drop off in Toronto was horrible. We had to keep driving around the block in downtown until we spied a teeny tiny sign that said enterprise. Once in the parking ramp it was really confusing where to go to drop off the car. I am still concerned that I am going to check my credit card statement and find a charge for the parking ramp. Horrible drop off experience.

I liked the vehicle. Did not like the employee as he was not there when he was supposed to be. When he did show up he didn't apologize just carried on with this routine. People were waiting. The location doesn't answer the phone. Not a good experience.

We would not know how the cat was as the location did not have a car for us. We were traveling with a family with kids and seniors, who had walked a mile to pick up the car. The guy behind the counter had no interest in giving us the car and had zero empathy, when we pointed out to him that he has several cars in the lot we were told they were out for maintenance. Lucky for us enterprise was nearby and both rentals from enterprise were good experiences.

We expected to rent a Toyota RAV4 like was shown on the rental website. Instead, we were only offered a Jeep Compass which is quite inferior to the RAV4. The return was okay except we arrived just past the closing time due to road closures in Quebec City. The attendant was closing out for the day but said we would get a credit statement sent to our email address. None has been received to date.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

When I dropped off the car I had made sure everything was nice and clean and filled up the tank more than I needed to in order to be as courteous as possible. When the staff member came back in from inspecting the car he claimed there was a stone chip in the windshield. I asked him to show me because I did not see anything. He pointed to a bug splatter. We argued but it didn't matter. I wrote a claim saying that I disagreed. I am concerned that some crazy charge is going to end up on my card that is not valid. Worst car rental experience I have ever had.

They gave me a car that wasn't cleaned or disinfected. I found a rental agreement and covid mask from last renter in center console of rental car. Took picture of contents of center console...covid mask/paperwork. And I still have the rental agreement from last renter. This is not the time to skip cleaning (COVID). Website states special cleaning??????? I had my elderly mother in car the first day. Would have never let her into rental if Id known at that time it wasnt cleaned..Brought this to their attention when dropping off car and they said call customer service like it was a non issue. I have have a open complaint with avis. Case # 46378720
