Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Kochi car reservation?
No problems! If you cancel your prepaid booking at least six hours ahead of picking up the car, you're likely to qualify for a full refund. It's a good idea to scan the rental policy as there are some exemptions. Visit our Customer Service Portal if you still have queries.
What types of cars can I rent in Kochi?
Economical, easy to operate and great on mileage, it's little wonder compact cars are the most commonly booked rental in Kochi. Explore this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily navigate busy streets. A compact is perfect for city adventures or short road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy model or stretch out in a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!
Where can I go on a road trip from Kochi?
Kochi has plenty to keep you on the move, but don't restrict yourself to just the one place. Organise a set of wheels and take to the road to explore the surrounding area. Here are a few places to choose from:
  • Thiruvananthapuram is about 177 kilometres from Kochi. Popular sights like Shri Padmanabhaswamy Temple deserve to be high on your list here.
  • Why not check out the best of Tirur too? Notable tourist attractions in this buzzing city include Kadampuzha Bhagavathy Temple. Tirur is around 113 kilometres from Kochi.
  • Find your way to Bandipur National Park to reconnect with nature. Pack a picnic to enjoy or just recharge your batteries in the fresh air. From Kochi, it's roughly 209 kilometres away.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Kochi with Expedia?

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kochi?
You'll need to be 18 and over to slide behind the wheel of a rental vehicle in Kochi. Bear in mind that young drivers may be restricted to renting from a few car categories, such as economy and compact. Higher age limits usually apply for premium and specialty vehicles. Many providers will also charge a fee for young renters. Read through the rules carefully before booking and factor any extra fees into your holiday budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Kochi?
Be prepared to present a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name when you get to the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your rental provider whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Kochi?
In Kochi, motorists drive on the left-hand side. This can be daunting enough, but the driver's seat and some controls are also on the opposite side to what you're used to. For a safe journey, take things slow at first and allow extra time to reach your destination.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Kochi?
Yes, and the good news is companies often offer lower rates the longer your rental term. Look through our long-term car rental deals in Kochi and hit the road with a real bargain.
Where can I find a Kochi car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a little shopping around. Managed to find a Kochi supplier that does rent to under 25s? Terrific! Just take note that some companies charge extra fees to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in should have all the information you need.
