Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Thiruvananthapuram car reservation?
Don't stress. You should receive all of your money back if you let us know a minimum of six hours prior to collecting the car. Your confirmation contains information about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid reservations result in a refund though, so it's a good idea to check the rental agreement.
What types of cars can I rent in Thiruvananthapuram?
Not too small yet not too big, compact vehicles are the number one pick for many travellers to Thiruvananthapuram. Featuring great gas mileage and easy parking and manoeuvrability, they're ideal for exploring the city. A compact offers slightly more space than an economy vehicle, which means you can travel around in a little extra style and comfort. Prefer something bigger? Check out our standard, intermediate and full-size options.
