The city is extremely popular with winter sports fans and hiking lovers, so it can get quite busy. If you’re planning to stay in the city, then a small car, such as a Chevrolet Spark, is a good option; it will make parking easier. However, if you want to go out and explore the mountainous surroundings, you will need something a little tougher. For instance, a Hyundai Tucson offers great handling as well as superior grip on steep terrain and the ability to drive on most surfaces with ease.
You must stick to the speed limits when you’re driving your car hire in Kamloops; otherwise, you are putting yourself at risk of an accident or being prosecuted by the local authorities. In general, on the motorway, you can drive as fast as 120 km/h, but some zones are limited to 100 km/h, so you need to watch out for this. In rural areas which aren’t motorways, you can usually drive at 80 km/h, whereas in Kamloops and other urban places, the maximum speed that’s allowed is 50 km/h.
You can park on the street in Kamloops. Usually, between Monday and Saturday from 09:00 to 18:00, you can pay using the Flowbird app. Alternatively, you can also pay with cash or a card at the machines provided. There is a maximum stay of 3 hours in one space, and the cost is around C$ 1.25 (A$ 1.38) for the first 2 hours. The third hour is roughly C$ 2.50 (A$ 2.77). There is a minimum charge of 12 minutes parking, which comes at a cost of about C$ 0.25 (A$ 0.28). There are also lots of car parks, such as St Paul Street Parking Lot, which costs roughly C$ 6 (A$ 6.64) per day or C$ 75 (A$ 82) per month.

Pros:

Description of how to drop off the vehicle in Vancouver. There was no signage and we had to visit the tourism information and then speak to people at the hotel to determine where to drop the vehicle off.2.0 Poor

Pros:
Staff was polite and courteous. Car was in good condition and clean.Cons:
My last day in BC I had to drive 2hrs on the TransCanada highway up a widing mountain, in the snow, in a front wheel drive car that didn't have snow tires. Snow ties should be mandatory in the winter.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
The car I got had a clean bill of condition but I found several significant dings and scratches that I may have been held responsible for.Cons:
The original booking was at a good rate, but when I extended it from 10 days to 2 weeks, I was very unhappy at the increased rate - I would have expected it to be the same or even better given a weekly rate - it went from $30/per day through the independent booking site to $45!!10.0 Wonderful

Feb 2018
Pros:
The winter tires made the trip much safer and the employee at the NotreDame office was very kind, easy to understand and fair. The car itself was easy to handle and made for a fun experience to drive.Cons:
Pick up was difficult all around. Some of the guidlines regarding being under the age of 25 should really be looked into and maybe reconsidered depending on the individual's insurance, references, experience, etc... Upon arriving back home to drop off the car, it was found that the chip in the windshield was recently documented but not reported and fixed. Therefore, I'd traveled with an unsafe and faulty windshield. This missed detail makes me sceptical of renting a vehicle with Budget again, in the future.10.0 Wonderful

Some Kamloops car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend always be aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Kamloops.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a no-deductible option to your Kamloops car hire.
