How old do you have to be to rent a car in Awarua?
Awarua requires drivers to be 21 and above before they can rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra charge and some restrictions. Many companies impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the usual car rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and mid-size) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Awarua?
Renting a car in Awarua is easy as pie. Normally, all that's required is a current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Once you've settled on your ride, check your policy to make sure there are no further requirements prior to the pickup date.
What side of the road do you drive on in Awarua?
You'll be driving on the left-hand side of the road in Awarua. This means that the driver's seat and controls are also on the other side. Allow for some extra time to get the hang of the differences before setting out.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Awarua?
Expedia makes it a cinch to find a quality long-term rental in Awarua. Just visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip preferences and explore your possibilities.
Where can I find an Awarua car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Awarua rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, be aware that some will charge extra fees. It's ideal to know this in advance so you can budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
