North Vancouver, BC

Walk across the Capilano Suspension Bridge

Not recommended if you’re afraid of heights. At 140 metres long and suspended 70 metres above the river, this narrow, swaying bridge isn’t for the faint of heart. The surrounding park is home to forest trails and local wildlife, making it a rewarding spot to visit with your hire car.

Admire panoramic views from Grouse Mountain

Grouse Mountain is one of Vancouver’s best places for a day out in nature, which you can easily reach with your rental car. There’s an extensive network of hiking trails, and it offers great views across the city. As the home to a wildlife refuge, you can see iconic Canadian animals like cougars, grizzlies, owls and more.

Make a splash with water sports in Deep Cove

In summer, Deep Cove is a hotspot for fans of kayaking, paddleboarding and other water sports. There are also hiking trails around the area if you want to stretch your legs after a nice drive in your vehicle rental. Keep an eye on the water, as playful orcas are a regular sight.

Top tips for renting a car in North Vancouver


Are you feeling nervous about driving in North Vancouver for the first time? These hints and tips will help. Here's what you need to know before you hit the streets in your rental car:


What are the road rules and driving conditions in North Vancouver?


Speed limits around North Vancouver are typically 50 km/h, but they can drop to 30 km/h in school zones. Keep in mind that North Vancouver often experiences challenging weather conditions, especially in the winter. Ice, snow, fog and heavy rain can affect driving, so stay alert and check local forecasts before setting out in your car rental.


What is parking like in North Vancouver?


North Vancouver has a mixture of on-street metered parking and large parking lots. Across all of Vancouver, a bylaw restricts parking for more than three hours on streets unless a sign specifically states otherwise. Finding overnight parking can be tricky in residential areas, so it’s best to plan ahead or look for dedicated car parks.


Are there toll roads in North Vancouver?


No, there are no toll roads in or around North Vancouver or elsewhere in British Columbia. The two bridges connecting North Vancouver to the Lower Mainland, the Lions Gate and Ironworkers Memorial, used to charge tolls, but they are now free to access. You can drive between Vancouver and North Vancouver without worrying about extra fees.


Are there gas stations and EV chargers in North Vancouver?


Yes, gas stations are easy to find around North Vancouver, with plenty offering both diesel and gasoline. The EV charging network is also expanding, with many chargers already available and more on the way. You’ll find several charge points near shops and public parking areas, so it’s easy to top up while out and about.


Do I need to rent a car in North Vancouver?


Renting a car will make getting around North Vancouver much easier. Public transport isn’t as extensive as in many East Coast cities, and routes are limited in the hills and residential areas. Without your own vehicle rental, reaching trailheads, viewpoints, and even some shopping areas can be time-consuming or inconvenient.

Frequently asked questions about North Vancouver car rentals

Do I need to be a certain age to rent a car on Turo?

To rent a car on Turo in Canada, you must be 23 or older.

How does car rental insurance work on Turo? 

You don’t need personal insurance coverage to book a car on Turo. If you do have your own auto insurance policy, the protection plan you select — purchased from Economical Insurance Company in Alberta, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Ontario, Prince Edward Island and Quebec, and Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) in British Columbia — will supplement your existing coverage.*

What insurance and protection plan options does Turo offer?

When booking a car on Turo, you’ll choose between three protection plans — Premier, Standard, or Minimum — to get the level of coverage that’s right for you. With each plan, you’re covered with liability insurance purchased from Economical Insurance Company in Alberta, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Ontario, Prince Edward Island and Quebec, and Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) in British Columbia — $2,000,000 for all plans.

Can I get car rental discounts on Turo?

On your Account page, make sure you’ve checked the box to receive email notifications, and enable push notifications from the Turo app in your phone settings — we’ll send you occasional promotions, discounts, and deals on car rental.

Is there long term car rental on Turo?

Yes there is — whether you want to rent a car for three days, three months, or even longer, you can on Turo. You’ll find discounted prices on bookings lasting 3+, 7+, or 30+ days, so you can get the best deals and lowest rates possible by booking longer trips.

Is there unlimited mileage car rental on Turo?

Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit — you’ll need to check on each rental car individually to see if this service is provided. On the vehicle pages, you’ll see the total miles or kilometres you’re allowed to drive under the heading “Distance included.” You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the “Unlimited distance” filter.

Can other people drive the car that I rented?

Yes, multiple guests can drive the car you rent on Turo, as long as they are all approved to drive. The primary driver (whoever rented the car) can add additional drivers with no fees or additional charges. Only the primary driver can request to add drivers; Turo hosts cannot do it for you. We encourage you to request to add additional drivers before your trip starts, though guests can request to add a driver while a trip is in progress.

To speed up the process, have your additional driver create a Turo account and get approved to drive before you request to add them. All drivers must have a valid driver’s license and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.

What is the cancellation policy for guests on Turo?

You can cancel and get a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts, unless you opt to receive a non-refundable trip discount when you book. If you book a trip with less than 24 hours’ notice, you have one hour after booking to cancel free of charge. If you cancel after the free cancellation period ends, you will be charged a cancellation fee.

In the rare event a host cancels, you’ll be notified immediately so you can book another car, or we’ll help you find one. Your refund can be temporarily held to expedite rebooking, or the funds can be returned to your bank account — your choice.

How much does it cost to rent a car in North Vancouver? 

The cost of car rental in North Vancouver can vary depending on car type, booking length, extras, and delivery. For cheap car rental in North Vancouver, look out for discounts on longer-duration bookings and early bookings.
