Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Canterbury?
Driving around Canterbury doesn't have to drain your savings, with daily car rental prices starting at just AU$97 within the past seven days.
Can I rent a car from Southend Airport (SEN)?
You can lock in a set of wheels from Europcar, which is a quick commute from Southend Airport (SEN).
What happens if I need to cancel my Canterbury car reservation?
We know that plans can change at the last minute. That's why many reservations allow for a total refund if you cancel at least six hours before pickup. Your home agreement should have all the info you need. If you can't locate the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always here to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Canterbury?
Economy, compact, standard, full-size ... You name it, we'll probably have it! But intermediate is the favourite home class in Canterbury. These cars are roomy and comfortable compared to economy and compact rides. While an intermediate is smaller than a full-size, you'll still have enough legroom and storage space. Whether you're hanging around Canterbury or headed farther afield, you'll be doing it in style.
Where can I go on a road trip from Canterbury?
After you've covered all the great sights in Canterbury, there's more to see in the surrounding region. Pick up the keys to a rental car, pack your bags in the trunk and get out there. We've come up with some drives we think you'll love:

  • London is approximately 88 kilometres from Canterbury. Renowned sights like Buckingham Palace should be high on your list while you're in town.
  • Located 153 kilometres away, Norwich is also a favourite with wanderers. Allow time to take in University of East Anglia while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love coming to this buzzing city.
  • Find your way to Cheddar Gorge to discover some local nature. Take a picnic to enjoy or just relax in the fresh air. From Canterbury, it's approximately 274 kilometres away.

Why should I rent a Canterbury car with Expedia?

How do I find the best car rental deals in Canterbury with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy to compare costs, offers and home providers, and to check customer reviews. Combine your Canterbury car rental with flight or hotel bookings to save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Canterbury?
If you're 21 and over, you can rent a car in Canterbury. Be aware that most home companies will charge young drivers an additional fee, which helps cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young drivers are often restricted from renting specialty or luxury vehicles. Check the terms and conditions before you book to avoid any problems when you pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Canterbury?
Your driver's license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? Then there's a good chance you'll also need proof of other coverage. Requirements may differ between suppliers, so read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Canterbury?
Unlike the States, people in Canterbury drive on the left side of the road. Having the driver's seat and some other controls on the opposite side can also take some getting used to. Spend some time familiarizing yourself with the car and its quirks before embarking on your journey.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Canterbury?
Expedia makes it easy to pick up a long-term holiday home in Canterbury. Just click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and explore your possibilities.
Where can I find a Canterbury car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Canterbury holiday home suppliers you're considering. If you're under 25  some will charge additional costs. It's better to know about this in advance so you can budget accordingly. Every holiday home car company has its own rules for young drivers, so it's smart to do your research.
