Question 5

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Galle?

Accepted Answer

Generally, the requirement is 23 years and over in Galle. It should be noted that most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers. Read the fine print before you sign up, as rules may differ between rental car suppliers. Bear in mind that if you want to rent a luxury vehicle or a larger car like an SUV, you may need to be older than 23.

Question 6

What do you need to rent a car in Galle?

Accepted Answer

Most rental companies will ask for these two things — a current driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.

Question 7

What side of the road do you drive on in Galle?

Accepted Answer

People in Galle drive on the left-hand side of the road, and the driver's seat and some controls are on the opposite side to U.S. vehicles. Spend a little extra time getting familiar with your car before taking off.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

The two lowest daily prices offered in Galle within the past seven days were $49 and $54. Now that's what we'd call a fantastic deal! These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.

Question 10

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

Accepted Answer

The ability to rent a car if you're under 25 years in Galle often depends on the rental provider you choose. Some outlets apply a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24 years of age, however other companies may not apply any additional costs for this age bracket. It'd be good to read the terms and conditions of your preferred rental dealer to escape any nasty surprises on pickup.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

For a safe, stress-free adventure, add Expedia's collision damage protection while reserving your rental car. This insurance covers your ride against theft, vandalism and collision damage. It also offers round-the-clock emergency assistance in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your Galle vehicle with Expedia and save time and money at the rental counter.

Question 12

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

Accepted Answer

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Sri Lanka, then it's likely you'll need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current license 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 license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most places 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. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
