Drivers 21 and above can get on the road in Strand in a rental vehicle. If you're a young renter, a daily surcharge applies.

Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any restrictions apply.

While terms and conditions can differ between rental car outlets, generally the essentials are a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name. You don't need to take out insurance with your rental company. However, proof of alternative coverage may be required.

Question 8

In Strand, as with all of South Africa, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. Take it slow at first and build confidence driving on the left if you've never done it before.

Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional fees if you're aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any unpleasant surprises at the rental desk, make sure you know exactly what to expect.

Question 12

What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Strand?

For a smooth, stress-free adventure, add Expedia's collision damage protection to your car rental reservation. This insurance covers your ride against collision damage, theft and vandalism. It also offers 24/7 emergency support in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your Strand ride with Expedia and save time and money at the rental counter.

Question 13

Can I drive in Strand with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't hold a driver's license issued in South Africa, then you may need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. Also consider that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements for international car rentals are:

Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, 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 the types of cars you can rent.
Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before driving away. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with your rental car.
