How old do you have to be to rent a car in Hamilton?

What do you need to rent a car in Hamilton?
The main requirements are your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. Check with your rental agency to avoid any problems.
What side of the road do you drive on in Hamilton?
In Hamilton, motorists drive on the left-hand side. This in itself can be daunting, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the opposite side to what you're used to. For a smooth and safe journey, take things slower and leave yourself extra time to get from A to B.

Where can I find a Hamilton car rental if I am younger than 25?
