Can I hire a car from Evansville Regional Airport (EVV)?

What happens if I need to cancel my Africa car reservation?
We have good news! You should be eligible for a complete refund if you notify us more than six hours ahead of the scheduled pick-up time. Your itinerary contains details about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all reservations qualify for a refund though, so you may want to read through the car hire policy.

How do I find the best car hire deals in Africa with Expedia?
It's easy to pick up an incredible deal with Expedia. Just choose your car type, select your dates and preferred pick-up and drop-off points, and browse offers from big-name brands. Make even bigger savings when you combine your Africa car hire with hotel or flight bookings.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Africa?
Africa requires drivers to be 21 and above to be able to hire a car. However, young drivers can expect a surcharge and tighter hire conditions. Most suppliers impose a young renter fee on top of the usual hire car rate. This helps cover the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like economy and compact) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to hire a car in Africa?
A current driver's license and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? Then there's a good chance you'll also need proof of other coverage. The requirements may differ between providers, so be sure to read through your policy.
What is the cheapest car rental in Africa?
With rates starting from just and per day in Africa within the past seven days, you'll be zipping off with your own amazing deal in no time. 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 hire a car for a month or longer in Africa?
Yes. We partner with reputable suppliers that offer weekly and monthly hires for all types of cars. Take a look at our long-term car hire deals and discover every part of Africa — or way beyond!
Where can I find an Africa hire car if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between hire companies, so you'll have to do a little homework. Managed to find an Africa outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? Terrific! Just take note that extra charges often apply to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're looking at will have all the information you need.
Can I drive in Africa with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you'll also need to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car hire. Please read the regulations before booking!
