10 tips to save on your car hire in and around London

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the ideal option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you’re more likely to obtain lower rates and have access to a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy areas. Mid-size rentals offer a balanced choice between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to making a booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, which requires you to return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most favourable option. Other rentals may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience it provides can make it worthwhile.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind in case of any unforeseen circumstances during your trip. It’s easy to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning long road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in London?
Rental vehicle rules in London require drivers to be at least 21. Are you a young driver? Some surcharges and restrictions could apply. Many rental companies impose what is known as a young renter surcharge, which is an additional fee to the car hire cost. Restrictions generally apply to the classes of cars young drivers can hire as well. Age limits may vary between companies, so check before you book.
What do you need to hire a car in London?
Most of the time, all you'll need is a current driver's license and credit card in your name when picking up the keys to your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between rental providers, so be sure to check in advance.

Where can I find a London hire car if I am younger than 25?
Some London providers will rent to drivers under 25, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do some research. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to young customers between 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
Can I drive in London with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the United States, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, know that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hired vehicle. Please read the details before you book!
