Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Durban car reservation?
Our Customer Service Portal has information about cancellations. In most situations, complete refunds are provided if a reservation is cancelled more than six hours before the collection time. It's a good idea to read your car rental agreement to double-check if there are any exceptions.
What types of cars can I rent in Durban?
Not too small yet not too big, compact vehicles are the top pick for many travellers to Durban. With great mileage and easy manoeuvrability and parking, they're ideal for zipping around the city. A compact is slightly more spacious than an economy vehicle, so you can hit the road in a little more comfort and style. Want something bigger? Check out our standard, intermediate and full-size options.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Durban?
Drivers with a valid licence 21 and over can rent a vehicle in Durban. While some providers may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, expect an extra fee. Find out what ages the young renter fee applies to, and the cost, before booking your wheels. Outlets also restrict the categories of cars young drivers can rent. Higher age limits apply for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Durban?
The main things are a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you prefer to opt out. Check your policy requirements to avoid any hassles.
What side of the road do you drive on in Durban?
Cars drive on the right and pass on the left in France — the same side as in the States. Road-tripping around Durban won't be exactly like home, though. You should familiarise yourself with the local road rules.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Durban?
Whether you're planning to stick around Durban or discover what's beyond, it's easy to book a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip details and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll find you cheap long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Durban car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a little shopping around. Managed to find a Durban supplier that does rent to under 25s? Great news! Just take note that extra charges often apply to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're looking at will have all the information you need.
