Top tips for hiring a car in Prince Edward Island

  • There are numerous Prince Edward Island car rentals, so if you’d like to rent a car while in this region, you’ll have many companies to choose from. When looking for a rental car, there are several factors to consider, including the number of people you’ll be traveling with. The more people you’ll be with, the more spacious your rental car should be. For example, if you plan on traveling with just one companion, renting an economy car would be wise, whereas if you plan on traveling with five or more family members or friends, a passenger van would be the appropriate vehicle to car. Another factor to think about is the destinations you plan to visit with the car. If any of the areas you plan on visiting can only be accessed via rough roads, an all-terrain vehicle would be the best option for you to rent, whereas, if the destinations you plan on visiting can be accessed via well-paved roads, a simple car or SUV would be a good rental car for you.
