KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Aarhus
- There are many advantages to car rental in Aarhus, and it is a wise bet if you want to have the freedom to explore the city and surrounds on your own. Aarhus is the second biggest city in Denmark, filled with hundreds of things to do, but you are also very close to the lake district of Sohojlandet, with its breathtaking lakes and gorgeous forests. There are many options for cheap Aarhus car rental if you book in advance.
- Getting your car rental in Aarhus is best booked and picked up at Aarhus Airport (AAR). Here you can select an appropriate car rental company in advance through KAYAK and then simply fill out the paperwork at the airport car counters. You can choose from a selection of major car rental companies like Hertz, Sixt, Europcar, Avis, Budget, Alamo, Enterprise and National. Depending on what car rental you need, filter your choices and pre-book, so you guarantee you get the car you desire.
- Driving in Aarhus is like driving in any city; it comes with a little getting used to. If you obey the road rules, you will find the drive pleasant. The roads are paved and well marked. Keep an eye out for city bikes. Bicycles have right of way, so you must make sure you stop for them. There are bicycle paths all over the city to look out for, and you have to always drive with your headlights on, even in the daytime.
- Driving in the city comes with its difficulties. As this is the second largest city in Denmark, the roads can be very busy. You not only have to watch out for other cars but also be very aware of other vehicles, like buses, trams and cyclists. The majority of people use bicycles as transport, so you need to have your eyes peeled and check your mirrors regularly. Avoid peak-hour traffic, like at around 5 pm after work, when everybody is anxious to get home.
- Book your rental car in Aarhus at least 3 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy rental cars in Aarhus are around 36% cheaper than other car types, on average

If you are coming to the city for a business trip, then you need a compact or intermediate car to get around the streets easily. If you want to take your car on a journey around the lake district, you might find the option of an SUV a bit more attractive; you will have more luggage space, safer technologies, air-conditioned comfort, large interior space and comfortable seats for longer distance travel. If you want to take the less-beaten track, make sure you get an SUV with high clearance.
What’s the speed limit in Aarhus?
Get to know the speed limits or be prepared to pay a fine. Speed limits in Aarhus are 50 kph in the city, 80 kph outside the city and 110-130 kph on the motorway. These are general, so watch out for road signs indicating the limit. The signs do not display the speed but rather have lines dictating whether it is a city road or a motorway, so this can be confusing. Try familiarising yourself with the signs beforehand, to avoid any traffic offences.
Where are the best places to park in Aarhus?
Parking in Aarhus city centre can be difficult and very pricey. There are options for free street parking, but it is going to be difficult to find these easily. Rather, park your car in a car park for the day if you plan to explore the city centre. There are paid meters in town, but they are known to be quite pricey. Some of the car parks in Aarhus can be found at Navitas at the Harbour, Bruuns Gallery, ARoS Aarhus Museum, Dokk1 Aarhus City and Salling Department Store. Do some research beforehand and make your way to the car parks to enjoy the day with your car safe and secure.
