Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Whalsay car reservation?
We all have times when plans are turned on their head. That's why we provide a full refund on many reservations if you advise us a minimum of six hours in advance of picking up the car. Remember to double-check your policy — in some cases it's not included. Can't find anything there? Our Customer Service Portal is always available to help.
What types of cars can I rent on Whalsay?
Not too small and not too big, compact cars are the top choice for many visitors to Whalsay. Featuring great mileage and easy manoeuvrability, they're perfect for zipping around the island. A compact car has slightly more room than an economy vehicle, so you can cruise around in a little more comfort. Prefer a bit more legroom? Check out our intermediate, standard or full-size range.

How old do you have to be to rent a car on Whalsay?
You have to be at least 21 to rent a set of wheels on Whalsay. Renters under 25 are usually charged extra fees, as statistics suggest younger drivers are more likely to be involved in accidents. Check the terms and conditions before you book to avoid any unexpected delays at pickup.
What do you need to rent a car on Whalsay?
You'll require a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name when you collect your vehicle. You may also require an alternative proof of coverage if you opt out of the outlet's insurance plan. Requirements are likely to vary between rental companies, so it's wise to check before you book.
What side of the road do you drive on on Whalsay?
Island time isn't the only thing you'll be switching to; you'll also be switching to the left side of the road. Exercise extra caution until you feel confident with the road rules on Whalsay.
Can I drive in Whalsay with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes, you can. If you have a valid U.S. License, you're able to drive on the island. You're not likely to need an International Driving Permit. Having said that, they're not difficult to arrange, so it might be worth getting one anyway.

Where can I find a Whalsay car rental if I am younger than 25?
This generally depends on the car rental company you choose on Whalsay. Some may rent cars to those aged under 25, but this likely comes with extra charges. If you're between 21 and 24 years, a young renter charge could apply to your rental and you may also be limited to certain car categories. Find out the age policy of your selected outlet and if any extra costs apply.
