Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport is Canada's sixth busiest airport and offers direct flights from several UK cities. It's conveniently located just 10km south of downtown Ottawa, making the journey into the heart of the city a breeze.

Car Hire Stations at Ottawa Airport

Car rental stations are conveniently located on level one of the Parkade, just a few steps from the Arrivals area. Here you'll find a wide range of providers to choose from including international names like Avis, Budget, Enterprise, and Hertz, alongside local offerings.

Car Class Recommendations

Given the varied weather conditions, we recommend a mid-size car or SUV for additional comfort and road safety. In winter, consider a car equipped with snow tires for better traction.

Refuelling Options Near the Airport

There are numerous petrol stations close to the airport for convenience. The closest being a Petro-Canada just a four-minute drive away on Hunt Club rd. Other nearby options include an Esso and Shell station.

Driving in Canada: What you need to know

Keep in mind that Canadians drive on the right-hand side of the road, unlike in the UK where the traffic moves on the left. Speeds and distances are measured in kilometers, not miles. Drink-driving laws are rigorously enforced, with legal alcohol levels significantly lower than those in the UK. Think twice before having that second pint!

Getting Around

The best way to explore the fascinating capital of Canada is by car. Iconic landmarks such as Parliament Hill, the Canadian Museum of History, and the picturesque Rideau Canal are all within easy driving distance.

Surrounding Cities

If you fancy a day trip, Montreal is just a two-hour drive away. Or why not drive four and a half hours to see the stunning views of Toronto's skyline?

Preparing for your trip

The local currency is the Canadian Dollar (CAD). Credit cards are widely accepted, but ATMs are readily available should you need cash. English is one of the official languages in Canada, so you'll have no problems with language barriers.

Climate

Canada's weather varies by season and region. Summers in Ottawa are warm and humid. If you're visiting in winter, prepare for a snow-filled adventure with temperatures often dipping below freezing. Always check the forecast before your journey and plan accordingly.

Set off on your adventure!

Now that you're all set with the essentials, we hope you have an unforgettable trip and create some special holiday memories, starting with your drive from Ottawa airport!
