KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Idaho Falls

  • Make your travel in and around Idaho Falls as flexible as can be by renting a car at one of the city's car rental centers. You can enjoy the impeccable cultural flair Idaho Falls has, including the various collectibles and memorabilia at Collectors' Corner Museum on John Adams Parkway and the Art Museum of Eastern Idaho on South Capital Ave. Idaho Falls' outdoor scenery features the renowned Idaho Falls River Walk & Greenbelt at the heart of the city on River Parkway. The magical Yellowstone National Park is approximately 100 miles from Idaho Falls, a 2h driving distance. Yellowstone presents you with dream-like landscapes of canyons, hot springs, geysers, and almost four hundred animal species.
  • Idaho Falls is accessible via various airports. 2 miles northwest of Downtown Idaho Falls is Idaho Falls Regional Airport (formerly Fanning Field Airport). The busy airport is home to a Rental Car Center with counters for Idaho Falls car rentals like Alamo, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Avis, Hertz, Budget, and National. As the center is just outside the baggage claim area, rental car shuttle buses are necessary. You can also fly into Idaho Falls through Pocatello Regional Airport, located approximately 55 miles from Idaho Falls. The Airports Rental Car Center operates inside the terminal, ruling out the necessity of a rental car shuttle bus. You can expect to find Avis, Budget, and Enterprise car rentals at Idaho Falls Airport.
  • While driving in Idaho Falls, GPS can come in handy to aid through the dense network of roads in the city. Traffic in Idaho Falls' major roads, like Veteran's Memorial Highway and Broadway Street, is moderate. The roads are well-maintained, but the area has a relatively high abundance of non-paved inroads. As most of the city's crosswalk pedestrians are children, it would help if you remain alert while cruising in Idaho Falls.
  • Rush hour starts early in Idaho Falls, at around 6:30am, and goes until about 08:30am. Traffic is heavy between 7:30am and 8am, but it clears off by about 9am. Some of the areas you want to avoid during these times are Eleventh Ave North Extension and North Fox Run Ave. Additionally, a section between Cloverdale Road - Joplin Road and Eighth Street also clogs with traffic. The afternoon rush hour clocks in at 3:30pm worsen at about 5:30pm but ease off around 6pm. Besides the previously mentioned areas, avoid roadways from Salt Lake City heading north.
  • Book your rental car in Idaho Falls at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate rental cars in Idaho Falls are around 9% cheaper than other car types, on average

The speed limit sign marker on the navigation was pretty spot on. No real problems driving.

FAQs about renting a car in Idaho Falls

Easy to pick up and drop off. I asked about the Gas program and got overcharged. I just wanted to pay for it when I got back but got assigned to some other gas program. So instead of just paying for gas from 15/16 to 1/2 tank, they charged 90 something dollars instead of the 3.99 per gallon. Not cool.

I had only made the reservation for my car late the night before. It was ready at 7 AM for me to pick up. The vehicle was clean and very comfortable. I delivered the car at the end of the day to another location. The employee there was ready to receive the car with no hangups. It was all a very pleasant experience.

Quick friendly service. Got a good clean vehicle. Only negative is that this is an off-airport location with no pick-up or return service to the airport. Upon returning the vehicle on a Sunday and having to get to the airport, found only one taxi or ride service available and risked missing my flight.

They booked me for a car in downtown Idaho Falls, NOT at the Idaho Falls Airport. The downtown office was CLOSED at the time my flight arrived, so I had to rent from another agency at the airport. The only car available from them was at 3x the price!

Our rental broke down during our travels. Alamo Roadside Assistance took great care of us! We were able to get a smaller car the very next day in a nearby town. When we returned home, the friendly Alamo guy was interested in our welfare and did all he could to make us feel like valued customers.
