KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Norwalk

  • When choosing car hire in Norwalk, you'll have several advantages, particularly if you're planning to explore not only the city, but also its surroundings. Hiring a car gives you the flexibility to tailor your itinerary and venture out at your own pace. You could drive to Sheffield Island, where you can hop on a ferry to Sheffield Island Lighthouse, where you can enjoy a guided tour of the lighthouse and the chance to picnic, while enjoying the beautiful views. While it's still accessible by public transport, having a car gives you the freedom to manage your time and avoid waiting for scheduled transport. Also, within an hour's drive, is the beautiful city of New Haven, home to Yale University. You can explore the historic Yale campus, visit the prestigious Yale Art Gallery, or enjoy a meal at one of the city's many excellent restaurants.
  • At John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in New York, car hire is provided off-site, rather than directly in the terminal buildings. After arriving at JFK, you should to head to the Rental Car Centre. To get there, you’ll need to go to Federal Circle Station, and take the airport's free AirTrain service, which connects all the terminals as well as the car hire centre. The AirTrain operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You’ll need to present your driving licence, passport, and credit card, so ensure you have them with you.
  • You’ll find that the roads in Norwalk, as well as throughout Connecticut, are generally well-maintained and well-signposted, especially on the major roads and motorways, making car hire in Norwalk relatively stress-free. Local drivers in Norwalk tend to be courteous and law-abiding. They are used to sharing the roads with cyclists and pedestrians, so you'll find that they typically give way to these road users where appropriate.
  • Norwalk does present some challenges for drivers. For example, morning rush hour generally takes place between 7:00 am and 9:00 am, whilst evening rush hour can be from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm. If possible, you might want to plan your travel to avoid these peak times. Weather conditions can sometimes pose difficulties. New England winters can be harsh and cold, and snow and ice can make roads slippery, requiring extra caution. Likewise, in autumn, heavy rain or fog can affect visibility.
  • Book your car hire in Norwalk at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Pickup and drop off were fine.

Inside windshield on the passenger side had foot prints on the window and the windows were dirty. A 1/4 full bottle of liquor was found under the drivers seat.

Daniel, Dec 2019

KAYAK

Pros:

The location that Kayak provided with pinpoint was inaccurate. I finally found the place after asking local police officer. The car was dirty and beat up. It was very expensive for the quality. Finally, they charged me $15 gas charge without explanation. When I asked the desk, they said they automatically do this unless I show a gas receipt. The tank showed full but didn't have a receipt. I feel Budget is deceiptful

Cons:

Stop deceitful advertising

I ordered a car online. Confirmed it and prepaid the insurance. They called an hour later and said that they don’t have any cars. I’m more than an hour in trying to get the insurance refunded. Had to take Uber. Big hassle.

Advertised cars online and they showed 5-10 cars available and booked a cart. 5 minutes later, the manager calls to say they are cancelling the reservation as they have no cars, yet they charged my card for the supplemental insurance.

Bad reception, information not clear, aggressive staff, all they want is to sale you extra insurance after they ask you to provide them with your own insurance and coverage and show them your insurance card to take a picture of it.. They wanted me to take the rented car with empty tank and return it with empty tank ( which is not easy to do ) instead of a full tank. Thant is all I can remember so this is the last time I rent with Entreprise !
