Driving a Car to Whistler

Why Rent a Car?

Driving to Whistler along the famed and aptly-named Sea to Sky Highway will be one of the most breathtaking journeys you'll ever take. Towering snow-capped mountains, lush green rainforests, and fast-flowing milky turquoise rivers will be forever etched into your memory.

Just before you get to the halfway town of Squamish, you can view the magnificent Shannon Falls right beside the road, and then look up in awe at the world famous rock climbing mountain called 'The Chief'.

Depending on the time of year, it's worth stopping for a view of bald eagles in Brackendale which is just north of the town. Once in Whistler, you might choose to take a day off from skiing or golfing, and take a drive to Pemberton, approximately 25 minutes' drive north. The views and scenery are very different from Whistler, and well worth a visit.

Best of all, your car rental will be waiting for you at the airport. Simply book your car online or call one of our agents who will be eager to assist you.

Travel Tips

Rent a car just for the drive to Whistler and back, or rent one during your stay. Heated underground parking is available for a fee. Most car rentals include unlimited mileage and ski racks and child seats are available upon request.

Be sure to ask about a One Way Round Trip which allows you the vehicle for a 24 hours rental in each direction from Vancouver International Airport (YVR) or Sea-Tac Airport (SEA) to Whistler and return, but not to use while you are in Whistler. It's a great way to get to and from the resort, but not have to pay for parking. Rates are subject to availability.
