How old do you have to be to rent a car in South Kensington?
Drivers need to be at least 21. But there are several age-related requirements to keep in mind before reserving your South Kensington wheels. If you're a younger driver, many rental outlets will charge an additional daily fee and limit the kinds of cars you're able to rent. The surcharge amount, and which age range it applies to, differs between providers. It's a good idea to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in South Kensington?
Before you can hit the road in South Kensington, you'll need a valid driver's licence and a credit card. If you prefer not to take out the company's insurance plan, you may also have to provide proof of other coverage. Rules can vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you select a rental supplier.
What side of the road do you drive on in South Kensington?
Unlike the States, people in South Kensington drive on the left-hand side of the road. Having the steering wheel and some other controls on the opposite side can also take some getting used to. Spend some time familiarising yourself with the vehicle and its quirks before driving away.

Whether you have plans to stay in South Kensington or explore 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 help you find cheap long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a South Kensington car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver hoping to rent a car in South Kensington, we suggest reading 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 of age. To escape any surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
