Everything was done just the way I like it to be. The pickup process was very brief and I was out of the airport quickly. The drop off was even faster. The car met my needs entirely and was in pristine shape.Reviewed Jun 20 2024

Top tips for hiring a car from Dollar in Calgary

  • Renting a car in Calgary enhances your convenience. Calgary has hidden trails of treasures that even the bus transit can't reach. To allow easy access to the major attractions in easy-to-reach and remote places in Calgary, renting a car is your best choice. You can quickly drive to Winsport, northwest of Calgary’s downtown and about a 17-minute drive via Bow Trail SW, and if you have the time, you can take a 90-minute day trip to Banff and Lake Louise for a picnic and viewing of the picture-perfect turquoise waters of the lake.
  • When renting a car from Dollar car rentals to drive around Calgary, there is a wide variety of models to choose from. Large groups of roughly seven travellers, with luggage, can rent SUVs or vans with adequate seating for the number of passengers and plenty of luggage room. Travellers visiting on fixed budgets would like to spend the least on renting their cars; Dollar has economy models suitable for their budget constraints.
  • The acceptable mode of payment for renting a car with Dollar car rentals in Calgary is a credit card in the renter's name. The estimated rental charges will be applied to your credit card. Dollar does not allow for payment using prepaid credit cards, gift cards, cash deposits, key ring credit cards, and debit cards. You cannot use a debit card for payment unless you pay at the rental term's end. The renter must have a valid driver's license and meet the age limits applied to the various vehicles; first-time renters' driver's licenses are subject to electronic verification. Valid identification cards must accompany foreign drivers’ licenses.
  • If you must cross the border from Calgary with the Dollar rental, be sure to inform the agency in advance for advice on how to avoid border restrictions. You can, however, cross to any bordering provinces and even into the U.S., as long as you notify the border guard that your vehicle is a rental vehicle. You can also travel on ferries with the rental vehicle. The Yukon, Alaska, Northwest Territories, Mexico, and Nunavut are restricted for entry with Dollar rentals.
