Dundee Car Rental

Enterprise is happy to offer advice when it comes to the best vehicle for your trip. Many customers are looking for a small economy car that is suited to city driving, while Dundee’s enviable location on the beautiful east coast of Scotland means that it is also the stepping-stone to exploring the region’s countryside. We can provide medium-sized cars, compact MPVs and full-sized MPVs and 4x4s, including Toyota, Volvo and Range Rover models, for discovering the rugged hills and rolling, agricultural countryside of the region. For business and premium travelers, executive vehicles, such as Mercedes C-Class, E-Class and S350, may be the more worthwhile options.

Dundee is presently undergoing a £1-billion plan to regenerate its historic waterfront. This ambitious project began in 2001 and has already seen substantial improvements in reconnecting the city with the river and offering unique attractions to visitors. The Dundee Science Center was one of the first attractions to open, while later years have seen the development of new open spaces, the Olympia Swimming and Leisure Center, Malmaison Hotel and Slessor Gardens with its Discovery Walk.

The city has a wealth of other attractions, such as the 15th-century Broughty Castle Museum, with its superb exhibits on Broughty Ferry and local life, and the amazing Orchar collection of Scottish Victorian art. It also boasts magnificent views across the water from its impressive vantage point on the mouth of the River Tay. Lovers of Scottish history may also want to visit Claypotts Castle, a 16th-century tower house in the suburban West Ferry district of the city, and Dudhope Castle, located on the Law in the city center. The Law itself is an extinct volcano and an impressive city landmark in its own right.

Other attractions include Discovery Point, home of the RRS Discovery, Captain Robert Falcon Scott’s famous polar exploration ship, launched in Dundee in 1901 and the last traditional wooden three-masted ship to be built in the country. Today, visitors can follow in Scott’s footsteps as the Discovery Center journeys into the heart of Antarctica, through a series of audio-visual shows and interactive exhibits.

A car makes the discovery of the wider region beyond the city easy. Fife, with its historic towns, villages and attractions, such as Falkland Palace and St Andrews Cathedral, is just a short drive to the south. Here the visitor can explore quaint fishing villages, peaceful country roads and scenic coastal countryside. Around Dundee city, attractions accessible with a Dundee rental car include the ruined 13th-century monastery of Balmerino Abbey, the picturesque 19th-century Barry Mill, Peter Pan author J.M. Barrie’s Birthplace museum, beautiful Branklyn Garden, and historic houses, such as the Georgian House of Dun. All these are within easy reach, either to the west or north of the city.

You can also head up towards the magnificent Cairngorms. Along the A9, the visitor will pass beautiful countryside and places to discover, such as the historic town of Dunkeld, the 18th-century woodland landscape of the Hermitage, Linn of Tummel woodland countryside and the Explorers Garden at Pitlochry, a charming garden that tells the wonderful story of Scotland’s plant hunters who traveled the world in search of new and exotic plants.

There are several car parks conveniently located around the Inner Ring Road. They are open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and include short-stay and long-stay car parks.
