Tips for hiring a car in Halifax
Browse helpful tips for hiring a car in Halifax including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on 8 July 2025.
- Opting for cheap car hire in Halifax provides several advantages over choosing public transport. With a car, you're free to explore the city and its surrounding areas at your own pace. You can easily visit attractions like Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, and the scenic Cabot Trail. Car hire allows you to customise your itinerary and discover hidden gems off the beaten track without dealing with inevitable public transport delays. Additionally, having a car provides convenience for carrying luggage and shopping, especially when travelling with a group or family.
- When driving in Halifax for the first time, be attentive to pedestrians, especially in busy areas like downtown and near universities. Avoid peak hour traffic in areas such as Barrington Street, Spring Garden Road, and major highways during rush hour. Be aware of one-way streets and always yield to emergency vehicles. Keep an eye out for cyclists, as Halifax has designated bike lanes. Familiarise yourself with parking regulations and watch for parking restrictions to avoid fines. Stay alert and adapt to changing weather conditions, particularly in winter, when snow and ice can affect road conditions.
- With a hired car in Halifax, you can easily explore nearby cities and towns that are not as accessible by public transport. Consider visiting Lunenburg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which is about a 90-minute drive from Halifax. The picturesque Annapolis Valley, known for its vineyards and apple orchards, is approximately a 1.5-hour drive away. For nature enthusiasts, the charming coastal town of Mahone Bay is just over an hour's drive from Halifax. Having a car allows you to enjoy the scenic routes and make spontaneous stops along the way.
