  • Trincomalee is approximately 97 kilometres from Anuradhapura. Top-rated attractions like Trincomalee Beach deserve to be high on your must-see list while you're in town.
  • Next stop? Consider Jaffna, which is around 153 kilometres away. Sri Nagavihara International Buddhist Centre is one local draw card you shouldn't miss.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Anuradhapura?
You'll need to be 23 and over to take the wheel of a rental car in Anuradhapura. Bear in mind that young drivers may be restricted to renting from a few car categories, such as compact and medium size. Higher age limits usually apply for larger and luxury vehicles. Most suppliers will also charge a fee for young renters. Read through the rules before booking and factor any extra fees into your budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Anuradhapura?
While requirements may differ between outlets, the basics are your driver's licence and a credit card. You don't need to take out insurance with your rental company. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.
What side of the road do you drive on in Anuradhapura?
If you're renting a car in Anuradhapura or road-tripping around Sri Lanka, you'll be driving on the left-hand side. Also, the driver's seat and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you're used to in the U.S. This may feel unfamiliar at first, so drive with extra caution.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Anuradhapura?
Yes, and you can find your perfect wheels among our long-term car rental deals. Simply enter your trip dates and we'll list awesome options from various reliable suppliers.
Where can I find an Anuradhapura car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to book a rental in Anuradhapura, you'll need to check the policies of the various rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be additional fees if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To escape any surprise fees and charges at the rental counter, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
