KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Ipoh

  • Having a car hire in Ipoh offers several benefits for exploring the city and its surroundings. With a hire car, you can easily visit attractions such as the iconic Ipoh Old Town, renowned for its colonial architecture and vibrant street art. A short drive away, you can discover the majestic limestone caves of Gua Tempurung and Sam Poh Tong. A trip to the beautiful Lost World of Tambun Theme Park on the outskirts of Ipoh is also made convenient with a hire car. You can also easily access attractions outside the city centre that have limited public transportation options with a hire car. It allows you to save time, avoid crowded buses or trains and provide flexibility in your schedule.
  • Several car hire facilities are conveniently located within the airport terminal at Sultan Azlan Shah Airport (IPH), which serves Ipoh. Passengers can easily find car hire counters in the Arrivals area, making it convenient to arrange a hire car upon arrival. The car hire facilities are located near the terminal exit, allowing for easy access and efficient pick-up of the hired vehicles. Renting a car at Sultan Azlan Shah Airport provides travellers with a seamless and hassle-free way to begin their exploration of Ipoh and the surrounding areas.
  • Driving around in your Ipoh car hire offers a relatively smooth experience with generally well-maintained roads. In Malaysia, driving is on the left-hand side of the road. The main roads in Ipoh, such as Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah and Jalan Raja Dr Nazrin Shah, are wide and well-marked, making navigation easier. However, some smaller streets in the city centre may be narrower and require extra caution. It is important to be aware of motorcyclists and cyclists, as they are commonly seen on the roads.
  • You may encounter a few difficulties while driving around Ipoh in a hire car. The city centre can experience heavy traffic during peak hours, particularly on major roads such as Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah and Jalan Raja Dr Nazrin Shah. Navigating through congested areas may require patience and careful attention to road conditions. Rush hour traffic in Ipoh typically occurs between 07:30 to 09:00 and 17:00 to 19:00, so planning your travel outside of these peak hours can help you avoid potential congestion.
  • Book your car hire in Ipoh at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy hire cars in Ipoh are around 75% cheaper than other car types, on average
