What types of cars can I rent in Alton?
Keep things low-cost with an economy, splash out on a premium ride or go for something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to go past a compact car — the most commonly booked rental type in Alton. They're a cinch to park and handle, fuel-efficient and a great idea if you're driving around cities. A step up from economy, you can expect a bit more comfort and room at a price that's still nice.
Where can I go on a road trip from Alton?
Alton is full of surprises, but don't limit yourself to one place. Book a set of wheels and take to the road to discover what else awaits in the surrounding region. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • Lexington is around 161 kilometres from Alton. Renowned sights like Keeneland Racing Course deserve a place on your must-see list here.
  • Your next stop? Consider Louisville, which is around 56 kilometres away. Churchill Downs is one local hot spot you really shouldn't miss.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Alton?
Alton requires drivers to be 21 and above before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and some choice restrictions. Most companies impose a young renter fee on top of the car rental rate. This covers the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like compact and mid-size) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Alton?
Any rental company you select will ask for these two things — a current driver's licence and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your wheels.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Alton?
Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then lock in your ideal ride. Whether you're staying in Alton or venturing far beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at a fantastic rate.
Where can I find an Alton car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver looking for a rental in Alton, it'd be wise to check the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be extra costs if you're aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any nasty surprises at the rental counter, make sure you do your research.
