Where can I find an Edinburgh car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies located in Edinburgh. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25, bear in mind that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before booking your rental.

Can I drive in Edinburgh with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Australia, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your current license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental 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 need to be at least 25 in many 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 vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before getting behind the wheel. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with a rental vehicle.
