KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Uppsala

  • Uppsala is located in a breathtaking region surrounded by forests, lakes and hills. Booking car hire in Uppsala makes it easy to escape the city and explore some of the scenic spots that are more difficult to reach with public transport. Uppsala has several historical landmarks and buildings that are worth seeing. With Uppsala car hire, you can visit destinations such as the magnificent Uppsala Castle, the famous burial mounds of ancient Viking kings and other landmarks that are easily accessible by car.
  • If you are looking to hire a car at Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN), the car hire offices are located in the car hire centre, between Terminals 4 and 5; it’s a short walk from the airport terminals. You can also reach the car hire centre via a free shuttle bus service that runs roughly every 10min. Look for the car hire signs at the airport to find the shuttle bus stop. If you are flying into Stockholm Skavsta Airport (NYO), the car hire offices are located at the airport, just outside the terminal building. If you are arriving at Stockholm Bromma Airport (BMA), the car hire offices are located at the airport, just outside the terminal building.
  • Biking is a popular mode of transportation in Uppsala, and there are plenty of bike lanes and cycle paths around the city. Therefore, you should be aware of cyclists while using car hire in Uppsala, especially near intersections and roundabouts. In addition, passenger cars and SUVs are common vehicles on the road. There are also plenty of trucks and buses on the highways around Uppsala. Uppsala drivers are generally calm and relaxed behind the wheel.
  • Uppsala is a relatively small city with a well-designed road network, so traffic in general is not a major concern. Rush hour traffic can be more congested, particularly from 08:00 to 09:00 and 16:00 to 17:00 on weekdays, as many people commute to and from work during these hours. During these times, the main roads leading into and out of Uppsala, such as Road E4, may be affected. Winter in Uppsala can also bring snow and ice, which can make driving conditions more difficult. Therefore, it's important to have proper winter tyres and to drive cautiously on slippery roads. During late summer and autumn, Uppsala can experience rainy weather, which also makes driving conditions more challenging.
  • Standard rental cars in Uppsala are around 37% cheaper than other car types, on average
