Outside of the airport terminal building, in the rental pick-up area, there is a sign that includes the Enterprise telephone number to request a shuttle pick up. Our driver arrived in less than 10 minutes. Of course, the shuttle is free. Both check-in and check-out are fast and painless. Our vehicle was ready as soon as we entered the facility. We were in and out in roughly 3 minutes. Outstanding! Just as important, we were charged exactly what was quoted, unlike Hertz (in Calgary), which charged close to $100 more than quoted.

I spent close to 3 hours on the phone having this charge refunded but once I got in contact with the right people they were very accommodating. If this happens to you make sure you call the actual branch and not the budget customer service line.

Easy peasy. We booked our rental using airmiles and…read moreeverything went smoothly. One note: when booking with airmiles, even if you pay with your credit card that contains rental insurance you will likely not be covered through your card since the majority of the vehicle's price was through airmiles. The entire transaction took less then 15mins - the car was clean, we were able to pick up downtown and drop off at the airport location. Drop off took a big 2 minutes, very efficient. The vehicle we ordered, Ford Focus ended up being a VW Jetta - not a big deal for us but this might be something people are concerned with. There were a few nicks and scratches on the car but they were mentioned and documented before we left. Will try it again next visit I'm sure!

The first time I called I think I spoke to Doug (I was in a panic), even though he couldn't get me a car he was so helpful and friendly, offering info for other ways to try to remedy our situation. I ended up calling back because he had mentioned having a car for part of the days and I fugured it was better than nothing. This time I spoke with Megan who was also super friendly and helpful. She said, hang on I think I can make something happen for you. She got a car for the whole trip! Secondly, the whole process is a breeze! You pay ahead and get a confirmation email with all the info you could need, a map to get from the ferry to your vehicle (a very short walk), and a code to get in the car. They even have a sticky note with your name on the window. No waiting around in line, signing a bunch of stuff, like a corporate rental company. When you drop it off you just fill it up and leave it where you found it. I don't know if all the vehicles are like this but it was a hybrid so spent barely any money on gas! Would recommend them a million times over!

Perhaps I'm used to the larger cities and this is common in smaller locations. When I returned the car, I expected to check in with a lot person, but instead had to walk back into the terminal office at arrivals (far side of airport from the lot), then go back to the other side of airport for departure. Just plan for the extra time.

And for frame of reference, gas at local Victoria stations was $1.89 per liter, and so Avis more than double charged me. Congratulations to them for successfully ripping me off, I suppose.

Not knowing one company from another, I took a shot in the dark and went with Orcas Island Shuttle. I don't know what the others are like, but I have to guess these guys are the best. I think the lady I spoke to was Amy. She was very helpful and efficient and I could tell just by speaking to her on the phone that she took pride in her business. She arranged to have the car at the dock where we arrived on the seaplane and everything was exactly as described. They even had granola bars and bottled water in the car for us. If only more businesses knew how much difference the little touches make. The rate was reasonable and the car was clean and sufficient for our needs. All in all a great experience. I highly recommend them.
