How old do you have to be to rent a car in Orkney?
Orkney rules state drivers must be 18 and over before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and tighter rental conditions. Most companies impose a young renter fee on top of the usual car rental rate. This helps cover the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like mid-size and compact) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to hire a car in Orkney?
Most rental companies will require two things — a current driver’s license and credit card. If you’d prefer to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to pick up the keys.
What is the cheapest car hire in Orkney?
The lowest car hire price in Orkney within the past seven days was £50 per day. The next best deal snapped up by thrifty travellers was £53. 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.

Head over to our long-term car hire deals page, enter your trip information and then lock in your ideal ride. Whether you’re staying in Orkney or road-tripping around, Expedia will help you find a long-term hire at an excellent rate.
Where can I find an Orkney hire car if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies that operate in Orkney. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, keep in mind that additional costs may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
