Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Amsterdam car reservation?
We get that plans change unexpectedly. That's why most prepaid rentals offer a complete refund if you cancel six hours in advance of pickup. Your cancellation policy should contain all the specifics you need. If you can't find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is available 24/7.
What types of cars can I rent in Amsterdam?
Bustling city streets and tight parking spots are no problem for an economy car — the most popular rental type in Amsterdam. Get behind the wheel of one of these and negotiate traffic like a dream. Reliable, affordable and with excellent mileage, these small cars pack a punch. But Amsterdam can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compacts, premiums and SUVs are some other options to choose from.
Where can I go on a road trip from Amsterdam?
There are many exciting adventures to be had in Amsterdam, but venture further afield and you'll find more sightseeing magic. Organise a set of wheels and you can cruise around the surrounding region at your leisure. Add these fantastic drives to your travel schedule:
  • Head to Santa Clara for an excellent sightseeing adventure. About 129 kilometres from Amsterdam, it has tons of amazing attractions such as California's Great America.
  • Roughly 145 kilometres away, Concord is also a favourite with wanderers. Set aside time to experience Six Flags Hurricane Harbour Concord while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love staying a while in this city.
  • Visit Elephant Seal Vista Point to rediscover nature. Pack a picnic to enjoy or just relax in the fresh air. From Amsterdam, it's 209 kilometres away.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Amsterdam with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy to compare costs, offers and rental companies, and to check reviews. Combine your Amsterdam 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 Amsterdam?
You'll need to be 21 and over to hop behind the wheel of a rental vehicle in Amsterdam. Bear in mind that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car categories, such as economy and compact. Higher age limits generally apply for larger vehicles like premium SUVs. Additionally, most outlets will charge an additional fee for young renters. Read the rules carefully before hitting the book button and factor any extra fees into your budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Amsterdam?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Amsterdam?
Expedia makes it a cinch to find a cheap long-term rental in Amsterdam. Simply head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and compare your choices.
Where can I find an Amsterdam car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies operating in Amsterdam. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, bear in mind that additional costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before collecting the vehicle.
