Top Tips for Hiring a Cargo Van in Galway

  • Galway van hire provides numerous advantages over other modes of transport. Unlike relying on public transport or tours, having a van gives you the flexibility to customise your itinerary and visit scenic destinations at your own pace. With Galway van hire, you can easily explore the rugged beauty of Connemara, visit historic sites like Kylemore Abbey, or embark on the iconic Wild Atlantic Way coastal drive. Don't miss the opportunity to experience the enchanting landscapes and hidden gems surrounding Galway with the convenience and freedom of a hire van.
  • When arriving at Galway Airport (GWY), you'll find the car hire offices conveniently located in the main terminal building. Simply follow the signs upon exiting the Arrival area, and you'll easily locate the car hire desks. The proximity of the car hire offices eliminates the need for shuttle services, allowing for a seamless and efficient process. Take advantage of this convenience of Galway van hire at the airport and embark on your journey immediately.
  • Be aware of Galway's narrow streets and tight parking spaces when driving a van in the city. Galway is known for its compact urban layout with narrow lanes and limited parking options. Exercise caution while navigating through the city's bustling streets, especially when making turns or passing through tight spots. Keep an eye out for pedestrians and other vehicles, and be prepared to encounter congested areas. Take your time and drive defensively to ensure a safe and smooth journey.
  • During rush hour in Galway, traffic congestion can present challenges for drivers. The morning rush hour typically occurs between 07:30 and 09:30, while the evening rush hour is generally from 17:00 to 19:00. It is important to note that Galway can experience adverse weather conditions during winter, including snow and icy roads. Exercise caution when driving in these conditions, particularly on elevated areas or mountainous roads, which may be more susceptible to hazardous conditions.

The man at the counter was incredibly helpful and very kind. He gave me the information I needed, and was professional throughout. Would absolutely rent there again. Cars are a short walk from the rental place, and easy to get in and out of the parking structure.

We were reluctant to rent a car outside the US, but our concerns were unfounded. The process was easy, the car was clean and comfortable.

Overall, the car was great. We did have a problem as we were renting it, though. I reserved an automatic transmission car, and, fortunately, I printed the reservation as soon as it was completed. When I went to pick the car up, they had changed the reservation to manual transmission.. As we were sitting there waiting for our car, a customer came in with the same exact issue. She went to get in her car and start driving and it was a manual transmission even though she had reserved an automatic transmission. This is a major problem for people who don’t know how to drive manual. it makes me wonder why this company doesn’t just keep more automatic transmission cars in stock if that’s what tourists need.
