Busy city streets and cramped parking spaces are no match for an economy car — the most commonly booked home type in Edmonton. Hop behind the wheel of one of these and negotiate traffic like a dream. Affordable, reliable and good on gas, these small rides pack a punch. But Edmonton can be explored in almost any sort of home you like. Compacts, premiums and SUVs are some other options to choose from.

With your own vehicle, exploring the surrounding areas is a walk in the park. Edmonton is an obvious place to begin, but there’s loads more to see in the region. Pick up the keys to a home, toss your luggage in the trunk and check out these other fantastic spots:

• You’ll feel the lively spirit of a city bursting with life the moment you pull into Red Deer. Some 145 kilometres from Edmonton, it’s home to loads of fantastic spots to explore, like Peavey Mart Centrium.
• Sylvan Lake, around 145 kilometres away, will also show you a good time. Curious what there is to see? Sylvan Lake Marina Bay is one of our favourite stops.
• After a long stint on the road, treat yourself to some fresh air at Upper Hot Springs. It’s approximately 306 kilometres from Edmonton.

Drivers 21 and over can hit the road in Edmonton in a rental car. If you’re a young motorist, a daily surcharge will apply. You’ll generally be restricted to a few car categories, such as economy and mid-size, and may also be required to purchase an all-inclusive insurance rate. Always enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions or surcharges apply.

While rules can differ between car rental outlets in Edmonton, the basics are your driver’s license and a credit card. You don’t need to take out the company’s insurance plan. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.
