This is a well-developed, modern city that doesn't require you to make any specific Guelph car hire choice. Get a vehicle that you're comfortable driving, with enough room for everyone. A city car or saloon will be more than adequate if you're going to spend most of your time in the downtown area and surrounding central neighbourhoods. The roads outside the city lend themselves well to road trips, in which case you might consider a roomier MPV if you're visiting with your family, or even a luxury or sports model if you really love driving.

The speed limit in urban areas of Guelph is 50 km/h, unless the signage indicates otherwise. For example, the limit in the central area of Guelph have been reduced to 40 km/h as part of the city's traffic-calming policies. Once you're outside built-up areas, you can drive at up to 80 km/h. On freeways, the speed limit is 100 km/h. Do pay attention to these regulations, as the local police are on the ball and might not be as forgiving as those back home.

There are plenty of car parks in downtown Guelph, run by the municipality. They're open from 08:00 – 18:00 and all charge the same rate of about C$3.00 per hour (roughly ₹185), up to a maximum of around C$30.00 (about ₹1850) per day. These are the East and West Parkades (as car parks are known here), the Fountain Lot and the Market Parkade. On-street parking in central Guelph is free for up to 2 hours. Just note that you aren't allowed to leave a vehicle parked overnight in the downtown district.
