Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Varanasi car reservation?
No need to stress. You should get all of your money back if you advise us more than six hours before pickup time. Your confirmation contains details about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid rentals qualify for a refund though, so it's a good idea to scan the cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Varanasi?
Mini, intermediate, full-size, premium ... Whatever you prefer! However, compact models are the most popular in Varanasi. If you want something inexpensive and small, but not too small, this rental car category is a great choice. Driving around busy streets will be easy in one of these. Compact vehicles are slightly roomier compared to economy models and are well-suited to couples and families on a budget.
Where can I go on a road trip from Varanasi?
Varanasi has plenty to keep you busy, but don't restrict yourself to only one place. Arrange a set of wheels and hit the road to see what else awaits in the surrounding area. Here are some great options we've come up with:
  • Prayagraj is approximately 113 kilometres from Varanasi. Renowned tourist attractions like Sangam deserve to be high on your list while you're in town.
  • About 161 kilometres away, Gorakhpur is also a hit with travellers. Make sure you take in Gorakhnath Temple while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love visiting this thriving city.
  • Bandhavgarh National Park is around 274 kilometres from Varanasi and is one of the region's most gorgeous nature spots. Stretch your legs and enjoy the fresh air here.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Varanasi with Expedia?
Expedia makes it a cinch to compare fees, offers and rental providers, and to check customer reviews. Combine your Varanasi car rental with flight or hotel bookings and you'll make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Varanasi?
Drivers with a valid licence 18 and above can rent a vehicle in Varanasi. While some outlets may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 18, contracts will come with additional fees. Find out what ages the young renter fee applies to, and associated costs, before reserving your ride. Providers also restrict the categories of cars available to young drivers. Higher age limits apply for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Varanasi?
While requirements may differ between rental car outlets in Varanasi, the basics are a current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. You don't need to take out auto insurance with your rental provider. However, proof of alternative coverage may be necessary.
What side of the road do you drive on in Varanasi?
Unlike the U.S, motorists in Varanasi drive on the left. Having the steering wheel and controls like indicators on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Spend some time familiarising yourself with the car before driving off.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Varanasi?
You can rent a car for a month or even longer in Varanasi, so go ahead and extend your holiday! Just enter your trip information into our long-term car rental deals page and book your perfect ride.
Where can I find a Varanasi car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental companies that operate in Varanasi. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25, take note that extra costs may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before picking up your vehicle.
