What types of cars can I rent in Arcadia?
Dart around in a mini, splash out on a premium ride or go for something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it’s hard to beat a compact vehicle — the preferred choice in Arcadia. They’re a joy to park and handle, fuel-efficient and a great idea if you’re cruising around bustling cities. An upgrade from economy, you can expect a little more comfort and room at a price that won’t hurt your budget.

  • Roughly 193 kilometres from Arcadia, Germantown is on the itinerary of many visitors. With attractions like Paronella Park, you’ll have no shortage of things to keep you busy here.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Arcadia?
In Arcadia, the requirement is generally 21 years and over. Most outlets will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the home location. Home policies for young drivers may include restrictions for certain vehicles, such as large cars, and require inclusive insurance to be taken out. It’s always a good idea to read the fine print carefully before choosing your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Arcadia?
Most home companies will require two things — your driver’s license and credit card. If you want to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your wheels.
What side of the road do you drive on in Arcadia?
If you hop behind the wheel in Arcadia, you’ll have to drive on the left. Note that the steering wheel will also be on the opposite side to what you’re used to. Consider choosing a car with automatic transmission to make things easier.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Arcadia?
Whether you have plans to stick around Arcadia or travel beyond, it’s easy to reserve a long-term holiday home with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll help you find fantastic long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find an Arcadia car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between holiday home suppliers, so be prepared to do a bit of homework. Managed to find an Arcadia supplier that does rent to under 25s? That’s great! Just take note that an extra charge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each holiday home car you’re interested in should have all the information you need.
