KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Brunswick

  • Car rentals in Brunswick allow for an easy cruise through Maine’s beautiful sites. You can drive approximately 17 miles south to the shores of Casco Bay. Or enjoy a smooth cruise across 100 acres on the Brunswick to the Ocean Trail as it takes you through campus, Town Commons, and Middle Bay. If you want to see some Maine waterfalls, you can drive about 10 minutes over to Head of Tide Park. All these sites would be more accessible to you with a car rental, as public transport would only take you to certain places, and even then you may still have to commute to your destination.
  • If you’re visiting Brunswick, you will most likely fly into the Portland Airport (PWM). There is one main terminal at Portland Airport (PMW), divided into an upper and lower level. For car rentals in Brunswick, you will find the car rental office at the Grounds Transportation Booth, found near Baggage Claim. With several car rental companies onsite, and over 200 cars for you to choose in the car rental atrium inside the airport’s parking garage, you will have plenty of options for your Brunswick car rental. The Portland Airport (PWM) is about 29 miles away from Brunswick.
  • Many folks attribute Brunswick’s small-town feel to its slower paced, relaxed lifestyle as compared to the bigger nearby cities, like Portland or Boston. Though it is a suburban area, you may experience some traffic as people are coming and going on their day trips to Midcoast Maine towns, like Boothbay or Camden, visiting the four state parks, or making their way to the airport in Portland (PWM).
  • Maine winters can be temperamental as they can be long, cold, and snowy. If you are visiting Brunswick in the winter, ask about winter tires and if any of the car rentals in Brunswick have them available. For safe driving in the winter, the key is to drive smoothly and cautiously; and be sure to factor in additional time for driving to your destination when commuting through snowy conditions.
  • Book your car hire in Brunswick at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Brunswick?

    You want to consider a smaller car with good gas mileage if you are solo driving through Brunswick, Maine. However, if you are traveling with more than three to four passengers, a minivan would be a fair choice as well to be able to fit everyone’s luggage. If you are planning trips to the state parks during your trip, deciding to rent an SUV will allow you to explore those destinations best.

  • What’s the speed limit in Brunswick?

    For roads in a business or residential district, speed limits tend to be around 20-25 mph. However, for roads on islands that are not accessible by road, or are dead end roads less than a mile long, a speed limit of 15 mph can be invoked. Otherwise, for all other area roads, the speed limit lands at about 30 to 50 mph. Brunswick houses Bowdoin College as well as four public school districts, so expect to see several school zones where speed limits are 15 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park in Brunswick?

    Brunswick is a small-town, but parking in downtown Brunswick can be a hassle, frustrating for residents and visitors alike, when everyone is trying to park on Maine Street. Though these coveted spaces are limited, Brunswick has lots of convenient, free, and less frequented parking spaces in the downtown only a few blocks off of Maine Street. Additionally, many of the businesses downtown make their lots available for public use after-hours. Long term parking is available in the Union Street Lot, for around $2 per day, and the Cedar Street Lot. In case you find yourself needing to park on Bowdoin College campus, be aware that overnight parking (1 am - 6 am) is prohibited on Maine Street, Potter Street, and South Street, and Cleveland Street has a 2-hour parking limit from 8 am to 6pm.

I thought I had reserved a vehicle at the Portland, ME airport, but it was actually at an off-site location and we had to arrange our own transportation to the other location in order to pick up the vehicle. The reservation through Kayak did not make this apparent, as the only indication was an address listed in small print. I guess I was expected to somehow know that the address shown wasn't at the airport (or accessible via an airport shuttle). The Hertz employee I spoke with at the airport location (young female, didn't get her name) was dismissive and quite rude. We had 6 people in our group so had to take 2 Ubers to get to the Warren location. The employees at the off-site location (Warren) were at least polite and friendly. The vehicle, a Honda minivan, did not appear to have been cleaned at all, having a good deal of sand and dirt on the floors and trash in the center console and door storage areas, and the jack and related items were just laying in the back cargo area instead of being properly stored with the spare tire. It was difficult to find where the spare was, then even more difficult to correctly store it all, so I sort of understand why it hadn't been propoerly put away, but it still should have been done. We did this before leaving the Warren location without offers of assistance, btw, as we needed all of the rear storage space in order to fit our luggage. The vehicle had a fairly hard-used and worn appearance overall, but ran well and got us around as needed. Overall, I feel like Kayak should be more clear on offsite rental locations, and that Hertz could provide cleaner, better maintained and less worn vehicles.

Cons:

I booked my rental weeks in advance, but less than 24 hours before I was to pick up my car I was told the office was closed and to call for next steps. I never reached anyone. I ended up calling the airport site and they honored my booking.

Pros:

Sraff was very nice

Cons:

Kayak was not truthful regarding the rental location. You said airport. It was actually a $30.00 Uber ride from the airport.

Pros:

Deliv ring from ship to car rental place

Cons:

Only one worker and she was so swamped that drop off was long wait until she said just leave key and she would do it and stay after hours to check us in. It was no her fault. She did ev rethink as fast and quick just 6 people checking in cars and getting back to ship was a nightmare for her. Company should provide more workers the few days cruise ship is in port.
