KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Fall River

  • When traveling to Fall River, a rental car is the best option for getting around. With this, you can explore the adventures in the city without spending so much money on cabs or having to hurry so you can catch up with public transportation. The main attraction to visit with car rentals in Fall River is the Battleship Cove at 5 Water St., open daily from 9 am. This is an outdoor museum showcasing the world’s largest collection of World War II’s U.S Navy vessels.
  • The two airports you can fly into when visiting Fall River are New Bedford Regional Airport (EWB), 10.4 miles away, and Rhode Island T.F Green International Airport (PVD), 13.9 miles away. The car rental facility at New Bedford Regional Airport is at the baggage claim area. The rental car facility at T.F Green Airport is on the third floor of the Interlink Facility. Dollar, Hertz, Budget, Avis and Thrifty are the Fall River car rentals agencies at both airports.
  • As a seaside city, you can expect a lot of tourists in Fall River throughout the year. You should thus be careful when driving in the city to avoid hitting the many tourists leisurely strolling on the streets. You might have to battle quite a few potholes in Fall River caused by the area’s harsh winters, so drive slowly to avoid accidents.
  • The rush hour in Fall River is from 6 am to 10 am and 4 pm to 7 pm, mostly on the major highways to and from the city center. If your itinerary allows, it is advisable to drive outside these hours. Alternatively, you can use online tools to find other routes to your destination to avoid traffic. When driving in the reduced sunlight of winter and fall, remember to use your headlights correctly and keep your windshield clean to boost your visibility.
  • Book your car hire in Fall River at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact hire cars in Fall River are around 41% cheaper than other car types, on average

The allowed speed on freeways within city limits is 45-65mph, and outside city limits, the speed limit is 65mph. These speed limits are strictly enforced, so ensure you do not exceed them and attract hefty penalties.

When we arrived they did not have a vehicle for us. They offered us the only car they had, an all electric that wasn't fully charged with a range of less than 150 miles. Ended up having to pay double elsewhere due to the last minute.
