KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Dover

  • Car rentals in Dover have an edge over alternative public transport in many ways. They provide convenience and flexibility, allowing visitors to move about their errands with ease and comfort. Dover car rentals offer better accessibility to nearby attractions like Foxboro Football Stadium, which is approximately 30 miles outside of Boston. With a car rental in Dover, travelers can explore the region, including the White Mountain National Forest, which offers breathtaking vistas and hiking opportunities.
  • If you are flying into Dover, there are two major entry points into the city. You can fly into Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (MHT) or Portland International Jetport (PWM). The car rental center is located on-site at MHT, adjacent to the main terminal building. After arriving at the airport, travelers can easily access the rental car center by following the signs from the baggage claim area. For passengers arriving at PMW, rental car counters are situated near the baggage claim area, eliminating the need for a shuttle.

High mile car. Mats were worn, brakes were squeaking. Car performed well and did the job. Punta Gorda Agent was congenial and helpful. Return was easy

Pros:

Nothing to like. There was no car. I had no rental. Not good.

Cons:

This was a really stressful really inconvenient experience. There could Actually have been a rental- thaT would have been better. There was no car for me upon arrival or at the main rental site several miles away. Your system needs to interact better with the Enterprise system at Pease, which I guess is a satellite rental location. How was I able to book a car when the rental company has no cars? You need a customer service phone number for when something goes wrong.

We rented the car from an Enterprise agency away from the airport. We were able to have them pick us up and then we were able to return the car to the airport and put the key in the key box by the airport front door.
