KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Guelph
- There's nothing better than having the freedom to set your own itinerary when visiting a foreign city by having your own car, rather than being subject to public transport timetables, routes and stops. That's the core advantage of booking car rental in Guelph. You'll also be able to visit places that public transport doesn't cover and enjoy sightseeing day trips to attractions like Rockwood Conservation Area. You can also take the 1 hour drive and visit Toronto.
- If you're flying from India you'll most likely land at the nearest major international airport, which is Toronto Pearson Airport International Airport (YYZ). You won't have trouble organising car rental in Guelph from here. Several of the most prominent international brands have agencies at the airport. These are on Level 1 in the car parks of both Terminal 1 and 2, which are easily reached on foot from either Arrivals halls. It's just a matter of following the signs.

The road conditions are good, and you'll find it very orderly compared to back home. The city is safe to drive in at all times of the day. The downtown area is focused on walkability and pedestrian convenience, so drive slowly here and always be prepared to give way.
- Guelph has grown significantly from the small town it once was, and the main difficulty you'll experience driving here is the density of the traffic. This is a factor at all times of the day, mainly due to the large number of traffic lights that aren't always properly sequenced. Locals say that a 10-minute drive can take 25 minutes or more as a result. Also look out for slow moving vehicles travelling around 20 km/h below the speed limit, as many locals are wont to do.

What type of car is recommended for driving in Guelph?
This is a well-developed, modern city that doesn't require you to make any specific Guelph car hire choice. Get a vehicle that you're comfortable driving, with enough room for everyone. A city car or saloon will be more than adequate if you're going to spend most of your time in the downtown area and surrounding central neighbourhoods. The roads outside the city lend themselves well to road trips, in which case you might consider a roomier MPV if you're visiting with your family, or even a luxury or sports model if you really love driving.
