Where can I find a The Leap car rental if I am younger than 25?

Some businesses have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, however others may not apply any additional costs for this age bracket. It'd be wise to go through the terms and conditions of your selected car company to avoid any surprise charges on pickup.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in The Leap?

Providing up to $35,000 in primary coverage, it also offers 24-hour emergency support and a zero-dollar deductible if you need to make a claim. Have your plans changed? If you cancel your insurance before your scheduled pick-up time, you'll get a 100 percent refund.
Can I drive in The Leap with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Australia, 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 an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before sliding behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental car.
