Self-driving in Western Canada: Jasper, Banff, Calgary

Very satisfied

Got the car quickly, but the staff kept trying to sell us insurance even though we already had coverage.

The car pickup process was relatively smooth. The staff asked us where we were headed and, upon learning we were going to Banff, suggested we upgrade the car because the mountain roads might be challenging. In reality, there weren't many mountain roads, and they were very easy to drive on—it was easy to accidentally speed. They also asked if we needed roadside assistance insurance, but we decided we could change a tire ourselves, so we didn't add it. When we picked up the car, it seemed like we got an upgrade to a Ford Focus, which was practically new (only 5000 km driven). We were so excited about the new car that we didn't thoroughly inspect it; the windshield had a small crack. Although it didn't affect driving, we were a bit worried, especially since it rained later. We contacted the rental company and QEEQ for reassurance, and they both told us not to worry and enjoy our trip. The car return was unexpectedly smooth, taking only a 30-second inspection mainly to check the fuel tank. Overall, this company was pretty good.

Everything was great except for the sales pitch for a full tank of gas at the counter.

Very convenient.
