If you're visiting in winter, it's a good idea to get an automatic vehicle, no matter what kind of Aalborg car hire model you choose. That way, you can focus on driving carefully without the distraction of having to change gears with your right hand. If you intend to spend most of your time enjoying the city itself, hire a city car, sedan or hatchback – you'll want something as compact as you can get, given all the cyclists and moped users. If you're with your family, an MPV will make a great choice. If you're an electric vehicle enthusiast, you'll have no problem finding charging stations in Aalborg.

While the speed limits in Aalborg are simple, they're not always well signposted, so pay close attention to where you're driving. In general, if you're within the city's urban areas, the speed limit is 50 km/h (about 30 mph). Once you leave the urban precincts, you can typically increase speed to up to 80 km/h (about 50 mph). On motorways, you can travel between 110 km/h (about 68 mph) and 130 km/h (about 80 mph), depending on what's signposted. When you're visiting other towns, there isn't as much signage, so as a rule of thumb, slow down to 50 km/h (30 mph) whenever you see a sign indicating that an urban area is coming up.

Parking can sometimes be a bit hard to find in Aalborg and also a bit on the expensive side, so first try Q-Park Palads, on Ved Stranden; it’s central and close to the pedestrianised streets. It's open 24 hours a day and is guarded. Parking for an hour will cost about €2.70 (£2.30), and for 4 hours, you'll pay around €10.80 (£9). If you want to leave your car there for most of the day while you go sightseeing on foot, you'll pay roughly €21.60 (£18) for 8 hours.
