Expedia is a firm believer in putting more of the world within your reach, that’s why we give you the flexibility to reserve your car without paying in advance. With our Book Now Pay Later option, you can simply present a valid credit card to pay the cost in full at the pickup destination. It doesn’t get easier than that! The rental car company will also put a hold on your credit card for the amount of the deposit. For some cheaper deals online, you may be required to pay at the time of booking. Take note of which payment options are available for your choice of rental car.

We appreciate that things happen and plans change at the last minute. That’s why the majority of prepaid reservations offer a full refund if you cancel a minimum of six hours before pickup. Your rental agreement should include all the information you need. If you can’t find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is here to help.

Rental vehicle rules in London require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a younger driver? Some restrictions and surcharges could apply. Rental providers impose what’s known as a young driver surcharge, which is an additional fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions usually apply to the sorts of cars young people can rent as well. Age limits may vary between suppliers, so check before booking.

A current driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Don’t want to take out the company’s insurance plan? In that case, you’re also likely to need proof of your own coverage. The requirements may differ from rental company to rental company, so read your policy thoroughly.

Unlike the States, motorists in London drive on the left-hand side of the road. Having the steering wheel and some other controls on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the car before embarking on your journey.

You certainly can. If you have a current U.S. license, you’re fine to drive in London. You may not need an International Driving Permit. But they are fairly easy to pick up, so it’d be a wise move to get one anyway.
