Can I rent a car from Edinburgh Airport (EDI)?

Your rental policy should include all the details you need. If you can't find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is available to help.
Where can I go on a road trip from Hamilton?
Once you've been to all of the great attractions in Hamilton, there's more to see in the surrounding region. Collect the keys to a rental car, stow your bags in the trunk and get out on the open road. Here are some road trips we know you'll enjoy:

  • Head off to Edinburgh for a fun-filled sightseeing adventure. Roughly 56 kilometres from Hamilton, it's home to loads of inspiring attractions such as Edinburgh Castle.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Hamilton with Expedia?
Check out customer ratings and reviews, choose your favourite ride and compare prices from top providers. Expedia makes it a cinch to get the best deal on your rental wheels. Bundle your Hamilton car rental with hotel or flight bookings and drive away with even greater savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Hamilton?
Drivers aged 21 and above can hit the road in Hamilton in a rental vehicle. If you're a young renter, a daily surcharge applies. You'll generally have fewer car categories to select from, such as compact and mid-size, and may also have to take out comprehensive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any surcharges or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Hamilton?
The main things are your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. Check your policy requirements to avoid any problems.
What side of the road do you drive on in Hamilton?
People in Hamilton drive on the left-hand side, and the driver's seat and some controls are on the opposite side to U.S. vehicles. Take some time getting to know your new car before venturing out.
What is the cheapest car rental in Hamilton?
According to prices found within the past seven days, the lowest daily rate for a rental car in Hamilton was just AU$118. The next best price was AU$186 per day. 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 rent a car for a month or longer in Hamilton?
Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip details and then book a ride that suits. Whether you're basing yourself in Hamilton or road-tripping around, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an incredible rate.
Where can I find a Hamilton car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Hamilton rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years old, some outlets will charge additional costs. It's good to know this in advance so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
