KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Trondheim

  • Car rentals in Trondheim provide several advantages over public transportation. A rental car will allow you to explore Trondheim and its surroundings within your own trip schedule without being bound by fixed schedules or routes. Trondheim's accessible attractions include Nidaros Cathedral, the Old Town Bridge, and Kristiansten Fortress. In addition, a Trondheim car rental offers a hassle-free way to transport luggage, making it suitable if you are traveling with heavy bags or equipment. Moreover, a rental car provides a comfortable and private mode of transportation, as you get to enjoy the privacy and personal space of your own vehicle, avoiding crowded buses or trains. Having a rental car eliminates the need to navigate multiple bus or tram lines, simplifying the transportation process and saving time.
  • Trondheim Airport (TRD) is the main international airport serving Trondheim and surrounding regions. For those planning flights to Trondheim, Norway, TRD will be your destination airport. Upon arrival at TRD, you'll access many Trondheim car rental options at the operating desks in the arrivals area.

We were charged almost $1000 in hidden fees after the fact. I would not have booked this car if I knew about the extra $1000 in hidden fees. This is ridiculous.
