Where can I find a Waiho car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether you can rent a car if you're under 25 years in Waiho often depends on the rental supplier you select. Some businesses apply a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, however other companies may not apply any extra fees for this age bracket. It'd be wise to understand the terms and conditions of your prospective rental company to avoid extra costs when collecting your car.
