About the Place Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom

  • The charming Edinburgh, capital of Scotland, is a must visit in the UK. With jaw dropping views looking straight out of a fairytale book, Edinburgh captivates every person who just happens to walk around its streets, making tourists fall in love for its natural beauty and incredible history.

    An afternoon spent in the Old Town is like enjoying a nice walk through the history of the city. It’s impossible not to notice the Edinburgh Castle, once the home of the Scotish royal family and now the number one tourist attraction in the city, welcoming more than one million visitors every year.

    New Town, on the other hand, was built at the end of the XVIII century. This is also a hot spot for tourists, where you can find many shops, museums and art galleries, coffee shops, pubs and restaurants.

Car Hire Requirements in the United Kingdom

  • Minimum Age

    In most countries, the minimum age required to hire a vehicle is 25.

  • Driving Licence

    Each driver must present a full, valid and original national driving licence, held for a minimum of 2 years. If your licence is not in a language used in your destination country, an International Driving Permit to accompany your national driving licence is highly recommended. Some rental companies and government agencies require that you present an IDP. It is the renter's responsibility to present both their IDP and Driver's License when picking up the vehicle. For more information, please reach out to the Rental Company.

  • ID and Passport

    Each driver must present a valid and original photo ID and passport.

  • International Credit Card

    The renter must present a valid and personal credit card with enough funds to be held as a security deposit. Third-party credit cards will not be accepted. The car hire company is solely responsible for approving the provided credit card. Online prepayment does not exempt the renter from providing a valid international credit card during vehicle pick-up. The hire company will place a hold in the amount of the required security deposit and, when applicable, any additional local fees not covered in the prepaid voucher will be charged to the card provided at the hire location.

  • Prepaid Booking Voucher

    You must present a printout of the Booking Confirmation Voucher at the hire location. This document officially confirms all agreed upon services, payment conditions, rates, discounts, as well as the availability of a vehicle from the selected group.

  • Important Information

    Car hire companies reserve the right to refuse service to underage or unlicensed drivers, those with poor credit history, or individuals otherwise considered liabilities by the hire company.
