Car Rental Waterford Airport

The medieval town of Waterford is located in the south of Ireland, on the banks of the River Suir. At one time, Waterford was one of the most important ports in Europe. However, Waterford still retains a certain small-town charm about it. The town appeals to all visitors, from arts and culture enthusiasts, to those more interested in nightlife.

There are several ways to get to Waterford. Most domestic visitors get here by rail or road. There is also a useful port at nearby Rosslare. However, US travelers might find flights to Waterford Airport most useful; especially if they have connections from Birmingham or Manchester in the UK, as well as Amsterdam. All these flights are operated by Aer Arran.

The only way to get to downtown Waterford is by taxi or hire car; there are no bus or rail connections. Travelers who don't intend to leave the city can take a taxi; much of Waterford is easily covered on foot. On the other hand, visitors intent on exploring are strongly advised to use cheap car hire in Waterford Airport.
