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.

Pros:
The young woman at Idaho Falls gave us a Durango for two people. She said that she did not have the suv we requested. The Durango wouldn't lock so we had to take time out of our first day of vacation to drive to W. Yellowstone to exchange it for a smaller vehicle which had not been cleaned!!!Cons:
If someone orders a specific type of vehicle it should be available at pickup not told to drive an enormous car they don't want. I ordered the car 2 weeks in advance so it shouldn't be difficult to have it available and clean.10.0 Wonderful
