Check out customer ratings and reviews, choose your car type and compare prices from the most popular providers. Expedia makes it easy to find the best deal on your rental wheels. Bundle your Ethekwini car rental with flight or hotel bookings and hit the road with even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ethekwini?
Ethekwini requires drivers to be 18 and above before they can rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and some restrictions on choice. Many companies impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the usual rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like mid-size and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Ethekwini?
Any rental company you select will ask for these two things — a current driver's licence and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.
Can I drive in Ethekwini with my U.S. Driver's license?
Certainly, as long as your U.S. License is valid. But think about getting an International Driving Permit anyway. They're fairly easy to arrange, and with one, you'll be fine to drive in other places if your travel plans extend beyond Ethekwini.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Ethekwini?
Yes. We partner with reputable companies that offer long-term rentals for many categories of cars. Head to our long-term car rental deals and explore every inch of Ethekwini — or far beyond!
Where can I find an Ethekwini car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a bit of shopping around. Found an Ethekwini outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Great news! Just be aware that some companies charge extra fees to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're considering should have all the details you need.
