KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Drogheda

  • Car hire in Drogheda is the top choice for most visitors in the area. You'll arrive with a bucket list of things to do and see and you don't want to wait around on the bus schedule and try and rely on rideshares to get you to your destination on time. You'll be in control of your own vacation with your own set of wheels as you cruise around to choice spots in and around Drogheda.
  • The nearest international airport to Drogheda is Dublin International Airport, about a 35-minute drive away and the ideal place for car hire in Drogheda, with several international companies operating from the airport. You'll find the car hire company desks located in the parking lot that links both airport terminals. Once you clear Baggage Claim, make your way through the Arrivals hall to the exit and follow the car hire signs to the parking lot. It's about a 2-minute walk away from the airport terminals.
  • Driving in Drogheda is pretty simple. Make sure you stick to the speed limit when driving in and around the city. Stick to the left-hand side of the road, which may take some getting used to if you've been driving on the opposite side. Remember to make the most of short road trips. You can make your way to the Isle of Man in close to two hours, as well as cities like Larne, Kilkenny, and Athlone. For a quick little city drive, take your Drogheda car hire to Dublin, just 35min away and explore the city.
  • As is the same with most Irish towns, the conditions of the roads can be iffy and they wind through the countryside. Don't follow in the locals’ footsteps and make sure you stick to the speed limit, even if others aren't. Drive on the left-hand side of the road, pass on the right, and look out for animals on the road when you're outside of the town centre.
  • Book your rental car in Drogheda at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy rental cars in Drogheda are around 68% cheaper than other car types, on average
