Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Columbia car reservation?

What types of cars can I rent in Columbia?
Get into the driver's seat of a compact vehicle in Columbia and you'll be in excellent company. The most in-demand rental car type, these rides are cost-effective, fuel-efficient and a breeze to park. With a compact vehicle, you'll easily handle the bustling city streets.

Where can I go on a road trip from Columbia?
Columbia has plenty to keep you on the move, but don't limit yourself to just one place. Organise a set of wheels and hit the open road to see what's in the wider region. Here are some places to consider:

  • You'll find Roger Williams Park Zoo and countless other interesting sights in Providence. From Columbia, it's about 72 kilometres away.
  • Situated 161 kilometres away, Albany is also a favourite with wanderers. Set aside time to experience The Egg while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love this vibrant city.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Columbia with Expedia?

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Columbia?
Drivers aged 21 and over can hit the highway in Columbia in a rental vehicle. If you're a young driver, a daily surcharge applies. You'll usually have fewer car categories to select from, such as compact and mid-size, and may also be required to purchase comprehensive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions or surcharges apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Columbia?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a valid driver's licence and credit card. If you'd prefer to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Check your policy 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 Columbia?
Click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then lock in your ideal ride. Whether you're basing yourself in Columbia or exploring beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an incredible rate.
Where can I find a Columbia car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Columbia rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, some companies will charge additional costs. It's best to know this ahead of time so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
