Top Tips for Hiring a People Carrier in Edinburgh

  • Edinburgh people carrier hire is popular with people with a variety of needs: whether you’re going away for a weekend with friends or family, to a concert or a wedding, people carriers are ideal for those who need a comfortable vehicle for a large group of people, especially over longer distances. They’re also popular with people who travel in short numbers but have a lot of luggage and need a bigger people carrier to transport them. There are people carriers available for short- and long-term hire, so you can take all the time you need. You can also find out-of-hours pick-up and drop-off at most car hire agencies, so you can find something that fits into your schedule.
  • At Edinburgh Turnhouse Airport (EDI), there’s a wide variety of people carriers available at a number of car hire agencies, from small, compact people carriers ideal for smaller trips, to larger people carriers with more power, seating capacity and storage space. Finding your Edinburgh people carrier hire right off the Arrivals lounge is a great way to save money and time on transport to/from the airport.
  • As a major city in Scotland, Edinburgh receives plenty of national and international visitors, which means that traffic can be an issue during rush hour. To ensure a smoother experience, avoid driving in the early mornings from 7:00 to 9:00 and in the evenings from 17:00 to 19:00. Steer clear specifically from Morningside Road, Bruntsfield Place, Nicolson Street, South Clerk Street and St. John’s Road.
  • Driving in Edinburgh is not much different than anywhere else in the UK. However, you should bear in mind that some streets can be quite hilly in comparison to other parts of the country, so if you’re driving with a heavy load, extra care is necessary. Also, if you need to park uphill, make sure to turn the front wheels away from the curb and pull the handbrake to secure the vehicle.
  • February is typically the cheapest month to hire a van in Edinburgh, with prices around £70 per day. The most expensive month is July, with average prices of £148 per day.

FAQs About Hiring a People Carrier in Edinburgh

  • What locations are available for people carrier hire in Edinburgh?

    Apart from Edinburgh Airport, which has the most variety of agencies and people carriers at affordable rates, there are also other locations situated in Edinburgh city centre, mostly around Waverley Train Station. Whilst most Edinburgh people carrier hire is located within a few steps of the station, there are also some agencies close to Edinburgh Harbour. The city centre hire agencies are particularly useful for residents who don’t want to travel to the airport, but that isn’t as advantageous for visitors who arrive by plane, as taxi return fares from the airport to the city centre cost about £40.

  • Where can I park my hire people carrier in Edinburgh?

    In addition to paid street parking in the city centre, there are also plenty of multi-storey car parks, such as the ones near Waverley Station, Blackfriars Street (next to Radisson Blu Hotel Edinburgh City Centre), Edinburgh Castle Terrace, St. Mary’s Street (near Travelodge) and many more. The farther you go from the city centre, the easiest it will be to find free parking on the street; although, those can be limited. There are also plenty of Park & Ride car parks located outside Edinburgh, but then you’ll need to get a bus or a tram to reach the city centre.

  • What types of people carriers are available in Edinburgh?

    There are plenty of people carriers available to suit most styles and budget. The Peugeot 5008, the Toyota Verso and the Seat Alhambra are excellent models of passenger people carriers with five doors that can comfortably seat up to seven people. If you need something bigger, the Ford Transit is more spacious and can receive around nine people. Those looking for more comfort and luxury can opt for a premium experience with an Opel Zafira Tourer or a Ford Galaxy.

  • How does KAYAK find such low people carrier hire prices?

    KAYAK compares people carrier hire prices from all major car hire companies such as Thrifty, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, Payless and more to find you the best deal.

Never got the car, Kayaks terms and conditions stated I’d be charged extra if under the age of 25, Europcar policy is you are charged extra if under the age of 26. I ended up cancelling the rental order as Europcar were wanting to charge me double what I was quoted on kayak. Both should do a better job at ensuring their policies are aligned.

Had a great overall experience with Arnold Clark except for the pickup. Pickup location at airport is terrible and confusing. After calling and getting direction we finally found it, but then the driver missed us and left us standing in the rain. Had to call a second time to get picked up. Otherwise it was all good.

Really great experience! Didn’t know if this was a really secure place when I first booked. Upon arrival into the parking lot it was clear to me that I made the right choice! We were greeted with an upgrade to a brand new vehicle to take into the Scottish highlands! The car was very clean and the staff even offered to drive us to the train station to catch our train into England when we were done with our rental. McNicolls was above and beyond what I thought it would be. Staff was super friendly too!

The staff was very professional and friendly, and I never felt like they were taking advantage of me as a foreign customer, unlike another car rental place in London. The young man who checked out my car was very responsive and efficient. The only minor complaint is their location is slightly difficult to find.

When we arrived, the company informed us that our car had been rented to someone else since we got there with more than 2 hours of delay and they could not provide another car before three days, which seriously impacted our vacation as we had a tour planned with reservations for every night. Nobody ever informed us of this policy, particularly in the confirmation emails that we had. No compensation was provided, although we had to rent another car last minute and expended much more money. An absolute shame.

It was terrible. We had reserved 2 cars to hold 7 people. Upon arrival, they gave 2 cars to hold 5 people. They then called a different Enterprise location and we heard that one location had two cars that could hold 7 people. We were then driven from the original location to the other location. Upon arrival at the new location we were told we were only getting one of those cars and our other car would be the 5 seater from the original location. Of the two original cars, we were given the smallest. We reserved and paid for two cars to hold 7 people. While my reservation eventually met that requirement, the other reservation in the group did not. We are extremely dissatisfied with the outcome, the lack of communication, and the lack of cars as reserved in the first place.

The CDW and theft insurance taken was not known to the Budget staff and it became point of contention taking away a lot of time.

Kiosk style mobile pickup in an underground garage where there is no phone reception. The credit card reader wasn’t working and they wanted to drive me to another location to pay. It took 40 minutes, even though I was the only customer and they decided at the end to use their own network to call in my payments and details to the other station. On return at 515 pm there was no one there and no sign of any kind, such as explaining where the key drop was. The Budget phone lines close at 4pm (one) and 5 pm (the other). Very annoying.

The car was to come with a GPS but it wasn’t installed. They don’t provide portable GPS units. Fortunately we have a cell phone with us and the charge cord fits. They were very helpful in explaining the car’s features and the car manual was supplied.

Total lack of transparency regarding the daily price. We prebooked/prepaid a class and the end charge was double what we expected. No mention at the counter. You don’t get a copy of the invoice at drop off - you get it days later and then they make it difficult to see the charges/details. Unacceptable customer experience with Sixt.

A car was available for me to drive. That was good. The bad: 1) Original quote was for £ 275 - the local Hertz desk charged me £ 691 and tried to charge me over £ 800!! 2) I requested an automatic transmission and got a stick 3) there was a huge scratch in the rear passenger door 4) There was no return sign at the Inverness airport for Hertz, all the other rental car agencies were represented but not Hertz. We had to drive around for 10 min trying to find it, and luckily saw the tiny Hertz sign upon leaving the airport. Kind of a disaster regarding the drop off.

The offering of insurance prior to getting the vehicle should have been better , since the insurance at the counter was outrageous. Also the drop off should have been described, since in that airport it is rather convoluted.

Check in was understaffed and the car was much smaller than the 5 person 3 bag on the website. It took a while (3 hours) but they did end up providing a larger car for the same price.

We were very pleased with the upgraded vehicle we rented, however the pick up was absolutely ridiculous. We arrived 15 minutes ahead of pur reservation time yet were placed 18th in the "queue". We were forced to wait nearly 2 hours to get our car despite having already booked in advance online. This was the low point of our trip. It cost us valuable time ahead of a long day of driving. Very, very bad service by the Hertz affiliates in Edinburgh. To be fair, the Hertz staff were friendly and doing their best, but there just were not enough staff members available to keep up with the volume of customers.

This was supposed to be a budget deal, but 3 days ended up costing well over $1000 Aus. The "Dollar" franchise in Edinburgh was operated by Hertz, who bent over backwards to help sort everything out, but "budget" it wasn't.

Finding the Green Motion at Waverley Station was very challenging. It was located in a parking garage with no clear markers or signs. We had to ask for help from multiple people to find the office. Once we arrived, the extra fees for insurance were extremely expensive. The hidden fees after they lure you in feel very scam like. The car itself was comfortable and clean. No complaints there, but when we went to drop off the vehicle, they wanted to charge us upwards of 400 pounds for a dent that already existed when we got the car. The staff were extremely rude and condescending about it, and made no offer for us to speak with upper management. They proceeded to tell us we were liable for costs even though when we picked up the car they said it had the dent. Everything about this agency felt underhanded and deceiving, like their ultimate goal is to get as much money from you as possible, but lure you in initially with the best price. I would NOT recommend Green Motion to anyone traveling and in search of a rental vehicle.

The harassment you receive on check in is exhausting. They don't accept the additional insurance you buy online, they charge you £1500 as a hold, and then threaten that you'll be liable for all £40,000 that the car is valued for if you don't show a million dollar insurance through your credit card or take on another £200+ in fees. Very shady business indeed.

You can’t hire a car here if you don’t have a credit card with your name on it. So they asked me to pay for insurance which is double the price of renting the car. I don’t recommend this place, its also complicated to navigate to reach their office to pick up and drop the car.

Very clean car and very fast and thorough pick up/drop off. Confusion on where to go to pick up the car as directions said airport, which meant asking directions to the shuttle that takes you to the pick up point.

Ray, Sept 2024

The car provided was fine. The shuttle is a relatively long drive to their off-sight location, then a 45 minute wait until we were in the car, then a low-fuel light came on within a couple of miles of the pickup spot (the agent told me it had around 1/4 tank left). It wasn't easy to find a fuel station in a foreign location during a rain storm! The waiting room at the off-site location was crowded with clients renting and returning cars so that several people had to stand for long times. I would never again rent from this company, nor use Kayak if that is their best offering.

It was booked without the insurance that I required to drive away. I consequently had to pay an additional £85 on pickup in order to get the car. Thereby invalidating the claimed price. Since kayak, booked through Expedia, which booked through routes, which actually just booked through europcar, no one there had any idea why they let the booking happen at all. Surely this is a problem. Can I have my money back for false advertising? Cheers
