Drive smarter from the start

  • The real fun starts once you've grabbed the keys to your YHM car hire. You've got the freedom to go wherever you like, but if you're off to central Toronto, it'll take you around 1 hour 10 minutes to cover the 72 kilometres or so northeast.

  • Around 5pm is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination. Try to avoid rush hours if you want a smoother run.

  • You can also pick up a car hire in Toronto. If you don't need a set of wheels right after you arrive, hold off until you're in the city and avoid paying for unused rental days.
