Picked up the car from Vancouver Airport. There are signs right outside the arrival gate, and many travelers heading to the rental car area; just follow them. There are ALAMO signs along the way too. Once in the parking lot, several rental companies share an office space. Find the appropriate counter, wait about 5 minutes, and the staff will indicate when it's your turn. Hand over the rental voucher from QEEQ, along with your credit card, passport, domestic driver's license, and translation (QEEQ offers this free service). After registration, they confirm your car type, pickup and drop-off locations, rental duration, and total cost. They might suggest adding local offerings like insurance, but since we already had full coverage from QEEQ, we declined and showed them the related notes in English. The staff didn't push further. After printing a new rental voucher and signing it, they directed us to the car. As we planned to cross the border to the USA, we proactively asked if this was allowed, and the answer was affirmative. We left the office, followed the ALAMO signs, and located the car. The entire process took less than 15 minutes - simple, efficient, and friendly service from ALAMO staff. The rental cost was 204 CAD with a 200 CAD deposit, credit card only (VISA or MasterCard).

The elderly gentleman was nice but a bit slow. He didn't push any sales, but the car model provided was not good. Suggest checking the parking lot first.

Pretty good

When I suddenly realized that I didn't bring my driver's license from home, I was glad I had arranged for a notarized copy beforehand, as advised. The staff was responsible and called the manager to verify my documents, while reminding us to drive carefully. The car we reserved wasn't available, but we got an upgrade for an additional fee. Overall, the process was quite satisfactory. Returning the car was quick.

Alamo's service was good, especially a helpful young man, but the wait time was a bit long.
