KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Rutland

  • Opting to use car rentals in Rutland comes with numerous benefits. It delivers unmatched convenience, enabling you to freely discover the city and nearby areas without being dependent on fixed public transit timetables. By renting a car, you can access less conventional tourist spots and points of interest that might not be easily reachable by alternative transportation options. This autonomy is especially advantageous for individuals seeking to maximize their Rutland experience and ensure a smooth and adaptable travel venture. With Rutland car rentals, you can visit areas like the picturesque Green Mountain National Forest, the historic Wilson Castle, and the charming town of Middlebury, all of which are more accessible if you have a car.
  • If you fly to Rutland, you'll likely land at Southern Vermont Regional Airport (RUT), about 5 miles from the city. Upon arrival at Southern Vermont Regional Airport, you can find the car rental desk near the baggage claim area in the terminal building. For free cancellation, consider booking your car rental from the KAYAK website even before your flight. Booking online also helps you to compare the rates before settling for the best deals.
  • Driving car rentals in Rutland generally reflects a calm and relaxed style. Locals tend to respect traffic rules, creating a safe environment. While there are few bicycles on the road, you might encounter some pedestrians, so caution is necessary. Trucks are commonly seen due to the region's agricultural activity. The city's standard vehicles include sedans, SUVs, and pickup trucks. Patience is a crucial aspect of driving here, as the atmosphere is more tranquil and considerate compared to busier urban areas.
  • While driving car rentals in Rutland is a fun experience, it can pose a few difficulties you should be aware of before your trip. Navigating car rentals in Rutland can encounter challenges during rush hours, primarily around 7:30 am - 9 am and 4:30 pm - 7 pm, when traffic congestion occurs, notably on US-7 and Main Street. The city's winter weather can also bring challenging road conditions, requiring cautious driving and potential delays. Rutland's narrow streets and occasional lack of designated parking spots might make larger vehicles difficult. Familiarity with alternate routes and a watchful approach during peak times can help mitigate these challenges.

Pros:

The staff was very helpful and friendly. He tried to take photos of the vehicle but it was so filthy you couldn't see if there was any damage to the body of the suv.

Cons:

I drove the car out of the lot and went straight to a gas station to clean the back window. I had zero visibility. I also cleaned the side view mirrors. My pants were so dirty from entering and exiting the suv, I had to return home and change my clothes.

5.6 Fair

Anonymous, Sep 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

The car was very nice, and pickup was efficient

Cons:

I prepaid the reservation on line, assuming that was standard and would expedite pick up. Then I had to change the date of the pick up...and it cost me a $100 cancellation fee, even tho I had already booked the new reservation with Hertz. Apparently the confirmation email from the first reservation stated there was a fee for cancellation, but since I cancelled more than 24 hrs in advance and rebooked a car, it is pure price gouging that they charged this fee. Will never book a car this way again
