KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Billings
- Surrounded by some of the most breath-taking nature parks, Billings is the perfect base for fantastic hikes, adventures, but also to explore what the city has to offer, such as the Yellowstone Art Museum. The famous Yellowstone National Park is about two and a half hours away by car. Those who don’t want to drive so long can also visit Custer Gallatin National Forest, which is only a bit over an hour by car away.
- With only an 8-minute drive from Billings Logan International Airport into the heart of Billings’ center, it makes a lot of sense to pick up the hire car directly from the airport. Internationally renowned agencies like Hertz, Enterprise, or Avis operate from the airport grounds and cars are parked in the terminal parking lot, ready to drive travelers into the city.
- Montana is famous for its natural scenery, but driving through it comes with hidden dangers. In fall, wet leaves can cover up potholes or make roads slippery, and wildlife is known to regularly run across roads. In winter, roads can be icy and blizzards are regular companions, too. It is recommended to carry an emergency kit in the car with a flashlight, blanket, and thermos flask, in case you get stuck on the road and need to wait a while until being picked up.
- Compared to major cities, rush hour is not so bad in Billings, but still avoid driving between 7 and 9 am and 5 and 7 pm, as roads are most congested during these times. In the wintertime, also bear and in mind that streets become narrower as the snow is piled up on either side of the road. Venture into intersections slowly and attentively, as you may not see oncoming cars so easily in the snow.
- Book your car hire in Billings at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Intermediate hire cars in Billings are around 8% cheaper than other car types, on average
