It'd be smart to go through the terms and conditions of your selected rental dealer to avoid any nasty surprises when picking up your keys.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Thornhill?
Start your road trip the right way by choosing Expedia's collision protection. While there are many types of car rental insurance, this is one you should have. It provides primary coverage for vandalism, accident damage and theft up to $35,000, as well as 24/7 emergency support. Don't wait until you reach the rental counter to insure your precious ride. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Thornhill ride with Expedia and save money and time.
Can I drive in Thornhill with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in South Africa, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. You should also note that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older 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: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with your rental car.
