KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Jyväskylä
- The Finnish city of Jyväskylä is one of the best places for a city break by the water. The dramatic Scandinavian landscapes are there to be explored, and the best way to see them is in your own vehicle. Choosing car hire in Jyväskylä is the best way to visit the city and the areas that surround it, as you won't have to worry about using the local transport system. The language barrier can often cause confusion, but when you have a car with GPS, you’ll get to travel to places like Tourujoen Luontopolku - a stunning walking area just 7.9 miles from the city centre. Having a car is the best option for convenient travel and ease of access to get the full Jyväskylä experience.
- Jyväskylä Airport (JYV) operates in the local area, making it the ideal place to book your Jyväskylä car hire from. The airport has many international car agencies, including some local ones too. As a smaller airport, you can pick up your car from the same terminal you arrive at. You will see the offices as you come out of the airport, where the friendly staff will happily help you with your booking for car hire in Jyväskylä.

As someone who is driving in the city and not familiar with it, you should drive at a slower pace to avoid any precarious driving situations.
