KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Dunfermline

  • When you get a car hire in Dunfermline you will get more flexibility with your onwards trip compared to if you use alternative methods of transport such as a bus or train. This is due to the fact that you can leave at a time that’s good for you, rather than having to wait for public transport or taxis. For instance, to drive to Cairneyhill takes about 10min. Whereas the same trip on a bus takes about 30min and you also have to abide by the bus timetable.
  • Edinburgh Airport (EDI) offers a selection of car hire companies that you can use, such as SIXT, so your dream car is never far away. If you want to get a car with SIXT, for example, you can easily locate them when you arrive at the airport. You need to exit the Arrivals hall and pass the bus stops outside to the covered walkway. Keep walking towards the end of the walkway, via the Airport Plaza, and you will reach the ‘Car Rental’ signs where the SIXT office is located.
  • When you get a car hire in Dunfermline you will see that it’s a popular town with both day-trippers and tourists. It is especially busy during the weekends when there are lots of people travelling from Edinburgh.
