How old do you have to be to rent a car in Islay?
If you're 18 and above, you can rent a car in Islay. Bear in mind that rental outlets will charge an extra fee if you're a young driver, which helps cover the higher accident risk involved. Also, young drivers often aren't permitted to rent larger or luxury models of cars. Browse the terms and conditions before you book so there are no hassles when it's time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Islay?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — your driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
What side of the road do you drive on in Islay?
You'll be driving on the left in Islay. This means that the driver's seat and other controls are also on the opposite side. Leave ample time to get the hang of your new car before driving off.

Where can I find an Islay car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you'll have to do a bit of homework. Managed to find an Islay supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? Great news! Just bear in mind that extra fees often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're considering will have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Islay?
For a secure, stress-free trip, add Expedia's collision protection to your car rental reservation. This insurance covers your ride against accident damage, vandalism and theft. It also provides round-the-clock emergency assistance in times of need. Opt in to this plan while finalizing your Islay vehicle with Expedia and save time and money at the rental desk.
Can I drive in Islay with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in South Africa, then you'll likely need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most places to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before sliding behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with your rental car.
