What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Wilmington?
For a secure, stress-free road 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 Wilmington ride with Expedia and save money and time at the rental desk.
Can I drive in Wilmington with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in England, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 in many 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 fine print before you drive away. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
