Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Nanaimo?
Within the past seven days in Nanaimo, you could have motored away in a rental for as little as £80 per day.
Can I hire a car from Nanaimo Harbour Water Aerodrome Airport (ZNA)?
Budget is a quick commute from the terminal and the only car hire outlet. Lock in your vehicle as soon as you know your travel dates to avoid missing out.
What happens if I need to cancel my Nanaimo car reservation?
We know that plans change at the last moment. That's why a large number of prepaid hires allow for a refund if you cancel six hours in advance of the scheduled collection time. Your cancellation policy should contain all the info you need. If you can't find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always accessible.
What types of cars can I rent in Nanaimo?
Inexpensive, easy to drive and good on mileage, it's no coincidence that compact cars are the most commonly booked type of hire in Nanaimo. Tour this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily manoeuvre busy streets. A compact is perfect for city getaways or shorter road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy model or stretch out in a full-size or premium — there's a style of vehicle to suit you!
Where can I go on a road trip from Nanaimo?
Nanaimo has plenty to keep you on the move, but don't limit yourself to just one place. Arrange a set of wheels and hit the road to see what else awaits in the wider area. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • Head to Vancouver for a fun-filled sightseeing adventure. Roughly 40 miles from Nanaimo, it has numerous great sights such as Stanley Park.
  • Your next stop? Consider Victoria, which is around 55 miles away. University of Victoria is one local highlight you won't want to miss.
  • Venture into nature and appreciate the serenity at Skaha Beach. It's about 200 miles from Nanaimo.

How do I find the best car hire deals in Nanaimo with Expedia?
Pick up an awesome deal with Expedia. Just choose your favourite ride, select your dates and preferred pick-up and drop-off locations, and browse offers from trusted rental providers. Make even bigger savings when you combine your Nanaimo car hire with hotel or flight bookings.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Nanaimo?
If you're aged 21 and over, you can hire a car in Nanaimo. Be mindful that hire providers will charge an additional fee if you're a young driver, which is meant to cover the higher accident risk involved. Also, young drivers are usually restricted from hiring specialty or luxury vehicles. Check the fine print before you book so there are no hassles at pick-up.
What do you need to rent a car in Nanaimo?
Most of the time, all you'll need is a current driver's license and a credit card in the same name when picking up your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Rules may differ between hire providers, so it's always wise to check before you book.

Where can I find a Nanaimo hire car if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between hire suppliers, so be prepared to do some research. Managed to find a Nanaimo supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? That's great!
