Score an awesome deal with Expedia. Simply choose your favorite ride, select your dates and pickup and drop-off locations, and browse offers from all the big-name suppliers. Save even more when you combine your Ottawa car rental with hotel or flight bookings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ottawa?
Drivers aged 21 and over can hit the road in Ottawa in a rental vehicle. If you're a young motorist, a daily surcharge will apply. You'll generally have fewer car categories to select from, such as economy and compact, and may also have to take out an all-inclusive insurance rate. Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any restrictions or surcharges apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Ottawa?
Any rental company you choose will need these two things — a valid driver's license and credit card. If you'd prefer to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
What is the cheapest car rental in Ottawa?
We looked into prices over the last seven days and found that the most affordable daily rate was $47. The next best price to rent a set of wheels in Ottawa was $49 a day. 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.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Ottawa?
Yes, so you won't have to rebook a rental vehicle in the middle of your vacation. Head over to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and secure a set of wheels to call your own for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find an Ottawa car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver hoping to rent a car in Ottawa, we recommend reading the terms and conditions of the various rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be additional fees if you're aged between 21 and 24. To escape any nasty surprises on pickup, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Ottawa?
Get your road trip off to a good start by choosing Expedia's collision damage protection. While there are many types of car rental insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for theft, vandalism and collision damage up to $35,000, as well as 24-hour emergency support. Don't wait until you get to the rental desk to insure your precious ride. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Ottawa ride with Expedia and save time and money.
