How old do you have to be to rent a car in Newcastle CBD?
You need to be at least 18 to get behind the wheel of a rental vehicle in Newcastle CBD.

Additionally, many companies will charge an additional fee for young renters. Read through the rules before booking and factor any surcharge into your travel budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Newcastle CBD?
Most rental companies will ask for these two things — a valid driver's licence and credit card. If you want to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your wheels.
What side of the road do you drive on in Newcastle CBD?
In Newcastle CBD and across South Africa, you'll need to drive on the left-hand side. This can be daunting enough, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the opposite side to the U.S. To stay safe behind the wheel, take things slower and leave yourself extra time to get to your next stop.

Where can I find a Newcastle CBD car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Newcastle CBD rental suppliers you're considering. If you're under the age of 25, some outlets will charge additional fees. It's useful to know this in advance so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so do your research.
