KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Gloucester

  • Renting a car from one of the top car rentals in Gloucester is smart if you want to do an extensive tour of the city. With a rental car, you can travel directly and comfortably from one location to another whenever you like. With a car rental, you'll also be able to easily check out the fun attractions in nearby towns like Ipswich, Seabrook, Saugus, Lynnfield, and Beverly, since they're all short drives away.
  • The nearest major airport serving Gloucester is Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), 25 miles from the Gloucester town center. At this airport, you can easily rent a car from any of the numerous companies dealing Gloucester car rentals, including Enterprise, Hertz, Avis, Dollar, Alamo, Payless, National, and Budget. The counters for these agencies are in the Rental Car Center, which is connected to the terminals via blue and white shuttle buses. You’ll board the buses on the lower levels of the terminals. It’s recommended to reserve a car in advance to ensure availability and enjoy good rates.
  • Driving in Gloucester is a smooth experience, as roads are in good condition and most drivers adhere to traffic laws. Despite these hopeful facts, it’s important to observe basic safety measures on the road, like maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles. There are always one or two drivers who resort to aggressive behavior. You should also be extra careful on narrow roads with sharp bends. Look out for passengers and cyclists, and make way for them when necessary, as some may cross the road absent-mindedly.
  • Generally, Gloucester doesn’t experience extreme traffic congestion because it isn’t highly populated. However, the city usually experiences slow-moving traffic from time to time. In the morning, traffic picks up from 7 am to 9 am, while in the afternoon, traffic is heavier from 5 pm to 7 pm. Even though Gloucester's traffic is manageable, it’s wise to plan your trip ahead and allow extra road time during peak hours.
