Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Edinburgh and Lothian car reservation?
There are always times when plans suddenly change. That's why we offer your money back on most prepaid rentals if you cancel six hours in advance of picking up the car. Remember to double-check your rental agreement --- sometimes it's not an option. Can't find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal has more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Edinburgh and Lothian?
Economical, zippy and delivering excellent mileage, it's little wonder compact cars are the most booked rental type in Edinburgh and Lothian. Explore this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily get around busy streets. A compact is ideal for city escapes or short road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy ride or stretch out in an intermediate, a full-size or premium --- there's a style of vehicle to suit you!
How do I find the best car rental deals in Edinburgh and Lothian with Expedia?
Browse our wide selection of rental cars, check out ratings and compare prices from major brands. In just a few clicks, Expedia will help you score the best deal on your ride. Got a hotel or flight booking? Add on your Edinburgh and Lothian car rental to save even more money.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Edinburgh and Lothian?
In Edinburgh and Lothian, the rule is usually 21 and over. Most outlets will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can vary depending on the rental location. Rental agreements for young drivers may include restrictions for certain vehicles, such as specialty cars, and require the purchase of inclusive insurance. Don't forget to read the fine print carefully before locking in your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Edinburgh and Lothian?
Renting a car in Edinburgh and Lothian is easy as pie. Usually, all that's required is a current driver's license and a credit card in your name. After settling on your perfect set of wheels, look up the terms and conditions to make sure there are no further requirements before pickup.
Can I drive in Edinburgh and Lothian with my U.S. Driver's license?
You can get behind the wheel in Edinburgh and Lothian with your U.S. Driver's license. But if you'd like extra peace of mind, obtain an International Driving Permit before you head off. It's another useful form of identification to have while you're traveling.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Edinburgh and Lothian?
Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then reserve your perfect ride. Whether you're stopping in Edinburgh and Lothian or venturing far beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an incredible rate.
Where can I find an Edinburgh and Lothian car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Edinburgh and Lothian outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you'll have to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some places will pass on a surcharge to customers between 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
