Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Edinburgh and Lothian car reservation?

How do I find the best car rental deals in Edinburgh and Lothian with Expedia?
Score an amazing deal with Expedia. Simply choose your preferred car type, select your dates and preferred pickup and drop-off locations, and browse offers from top brands. Make even bigger savings when you combine your Edinburgh and Lothian car rental with hotel or flight bookings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Edinburgh and Lothian?
You have to be at least 21. But there are a few age-related rules to keep in mind before you book your Edinburgh and Lothian wheels. If you're a young driver, rental providers will likely charge an additional daily fee and limit the sorts of vehicles you can rent. The amount of the surcharge, and which age range it applies to, varies between providers. Take your time to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Edinburgh and Lothian?
Any rental company you select will ask for these two things — a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd prefer to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
Can I drive in Edinburgh and Lothian with my U.S. Driver's license?
You certainly can. If you have a current U.S. License, you're allowed to drive in Edinburgh and Lothian. You mightn't need an International Driving Permit. However, they are fairly easy to obtain, so it might be worth your while to organise one anyway.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Edinburgh and Lothian?
Whether you're planning to stop in Edinburgh and Lothian or explore what's beyond, it's easy to reserve a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll find you cheap long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find an Edinburgh and Lothian car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver looking for a car rental in Edinburgh and Lothian, we recommend reading the terms and conditions of the car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be surcharges if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
