Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Cardiff?
Within the past seven days in Cardiff, you could have motored away in a hire car for as little as £72 a day.
What happens if I need to cancel my Cardiff car reservation?
Good news! You should be given a complete refund if you cancel more than six hours before the collection time. Your confirmation contains information about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid hires qualify for a refund though, so it's a good idea to read through the rental policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Cardiff?
Whatever meets your needs! Go for an intermediate or full-size if you're with the family, or scale up to a premium for a top-of-the-range ride. Or, choose an economy model — the most booked hire in Cardiff. Affordable and with terrific mileage, they're a good fit for solo travellers, couples or anyone else who doesn't require a large amount of room. They're especially suited to city exploring. Squeezing into tight parking spots will be a cinch!
How do I find the best car hire deals in Cardiff with Expedia?
Expedia makes it a breeze to compare prices, offers and rental providers, and to check customer reviews. Bundle your Cardiff car rental with hotel or flight bookings and you'll make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Cardiff?
If you're 21 and over, you can hire a car in Cardiff. Be aware that most hire suppliers will charge an extra fee if you're a young driver, which helps cover the higher accident risk involved. Also, young drivers are usually restricted from hiring larger vehicles and luxury cars. Carefully read the terms and conditions before you book to avoid any surprises at the hire counter.
What do you need to hire a car in Cardiff?
Most rental companies will require two things — your driver's license and credit card. If you decide to opt out of the supplier'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 collect your wheels.
What is the cheapest car hire in Cardiff?
Based on prices found over the past seven days, you could've hopped behind the wheel of a rental car for just £72 per day. The second lowest daily price on offer in Cardiff was £74. 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 Cardiff?
Yes, and the good news is suppliers often offer lower prices the longer your hire term. Discover our long-term car rental deals in Cardiff and drive off with an incredible bargain.
Where can I find a Cardiff hire car if I am younger than 25?
Whether you can hire a vehicle if you are under 25 in Cardiff often depends on the rental company you choose. Some places have a surcharge for customers aged between 21 and 24 years, whereas others may not apply any additional fees for this age range. It'd be wise to understand the terms and conditions of your chosen car company to escape any nasty surprises at the rental desk.
Can I drive in Cardiff with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the U.S, then you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the car hire process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hired cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the hired car company before you book to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hired car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
