Requirements
What You Need
Driving Licence
Valid driving licence held for a minimum of five years. International driving permits accepted.
Minimum Age
Drivers are typically 25 to 27 years of age, depending on the vehicle and situation. Individual exceptions can be considered.
Documents & Booking
To book, send a photo of your driving licence and a photo of your passport or ID. A non-refundable prepayment of 30 to 50 percent secures the vehicle; the exact percentage depends on the vehicle, rental length and season.
Security Deposit
A security deposit is paid on delivery, together with the balance of the rental fee, and held by credit card pre-authorisation. Amount varies by vehicle. Check your card's deposit limit with your bank before the rental.
In-Person Verification
Bring your physical ID and a credit card for verification at pick-up or delivery.
Insurance
Comprehensive insurance is included in every rental. Additional coverage options available on request.
