Bozeman, Big Sky, and Bozeman Airport Car Rentals
Explore Rentals is Bozeman’s original independent car rental and outdoor gear rental agency. For over 10-years, we have been providing visitors of Bozeman, Big Sky, and Yellowstone National Park superior 4WD rental cars that have kept them comfortable and safe.
We are a brick-and-mortar rental car agency located just a mile east of the Bozeman Airport. Not an individual renting out personal cars or a used car lot trying to make an extra buck.
Our reviews going back over a decade can be found on Google, Yelp, or Facebook. Or, if you want to talk to one of our pros, in Bozeman, we can do that, too: 406-922-0179.

Our Story
Explore Rentals began in the summer of 2010 as a side-hustle. It didn’t take long for reputation and demand to grow, and Explore has since become the best reviewed car rental agency in Montana and the largest purveyor of rental camping gear, campervans, travel trailers, drift boats, rafts, and fly fishing equipment in the Yellowstone region. Explore has paved the way for a budding outdoor rental industry nationwide; from being the first company in the country to offer guaranteed all-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive rental cars with rental camping gear specifically for outdoor adventures, to 4×4 Sprinter van rentals, Tacoma overland rentals, bear spray rentals, and the list goes on.
We continue to strive to offer innovative and superior rental items to our customers, as well as unparalleled customer service.
