KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Falkirk

  • When you book car hire in Falkirk, you give yourself the freedom to explore the many natural wonders of this outdoor adventure and its wide open spaces at your own pace. Spend as long as you want investigating its many wilderness attractions, parks and activities. There are so many remote places to visit in the large town that are easily accessible by Falkirk car hire. Drive to the top of the hill summit Dumyat and hit the mountain bike trails, or park at the foot of the Ochil Hills and head up the hiking trails.
  • There is no airport directly in Falkirk, but the closest major airport is Edinburgh International Airport (EDI). The airport is 19 miles ( 31km ) from Falkirk's centre. Collecting a car hire for Falkirk travel from the airport is a convenient way to get your adventure underway, especially if you have arrived in Scotland at the airport. The car hire centre at the airport is a short walk from the terminal building. Head to the multi-purpose parking lot and walk along the covered walkway to the centre.
  • During periods of regular weather conditions, you'll find that driving a car hire in Falkirk is a pleasant and stress-free experience. Although a lot of the roads are single carriageways, they are all wide enough for any size car. The road markings are mostly clear, and you will find that medium size traffic circles are strategically placed in areas where traffic is slightly more congested to ease the traffic flow, like near big shopping centres and in the town centre.
  • December to March is when Falkirk experiences its winter months. During these times driving around the city in your car hire in Falkirk can be a dangerous experience for drivers who are inexperienced in driving in extreme weather conditions. The winter months are very cold, very windy and mostly cloudy. You will find snow on roads that head up towards hilltops. It's best to check your windscreen wipers, tires and headlights are in working order before leaving the car hire car park.
