We have found Turo to better than the companies.  We have used it several times. Orlando, Myrtle Beach, Bar Harbor.  The car that is pictured is the car you get.  Rental companies never give you the car you reserve. The car in Bar Harbor was perfect, clean and delivered right to us.  They had done many cruise passengers. Check it out.

Thanks Explorer, I followed the link.  This couple has been renting their vehicle for 2 years and has at least 40 5-star reviews by cruisers.  Many comment how they had the car waiting right where they got off the tender, and the car was perfect and clean.  So I have booked.  I love that we will not waste time since we only have 10 hours to explore.  I am so excited to visit the island. Thanks for the pro tip.  

Thanks for the info.  I am not familiar with Turo.  What is that like?  I saw the gem car ad. I don't think one of those little cars is for us.  They are very pricey, and look a little sketchy, maybe scary going down the mountain 🫣.  I will look into Turo.

We will be visiting Bar Harbor this spring on a cruise. We would like to get a car and see Acadia National Park and some of Mount Desert Island (Bass Harbor lighthouse too). Does anyone rent cars in town?  There are rental companies off the island at a small airport, but is too far away.  I don't want to waste the little time we have chasing a rental car.  Any other alternatives?

Thanks for any help.
