It’s still good to read your cancellation policy though because there are some exclusions. If the information isn’t there, head over to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Jaffna?
Whatever suits your style! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you’re travelling with the family, or level up to a premium for sleek sophistication. Or, choose an economy vehicle — the most booked home in Jaffna. Affordable and with great mileage, they’re a good match for singles, couples or anyone else who doesn’t require a huge amount of space. They’re especially suited to driving around cities. Slipping into narrow parking spots will be a cinch!
Where can I go on a road trip from Jaffna?
With your own wheels, cruising around the surrounding regions is as easy as putting your foot on the accelerator. Jaffna is a great place to start, but there’s lots more to experience in the region. Grab the keys to a home, fling your bags in the trunk and check out these other popular spots:

  • You’ll feel the spirit of a city bustling with life the minute you pull into Trincomalee. Some 177 kilometres from Jaffna, it has a ton of wonderful places to visit, such as Marble Beach.
  • Vavuniya, around 97 kilometres away, also promises a good time. Need some sightseeing inspiration? Grand Jummah Mosque is our top pick.
  • After a long stint behind the wheel, treat yourself to some time out in nature at Negombo Beach. It’s roughly 274 kilometres from Jaffna.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Jaffna?
You’ll need to be 23 and over to grab the keys to a rental car in Jaffna. Be aware that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car classes, such as economy, compact and medium size. Higher age limits usually apply for luxury and specialty vehicles. Most suppliers will also charge a young renter fee. Read the rules carefully before hitting the book button and factor any extra fees into your budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Jaffna?
Any home company you select will require two things — your driver’s license and credit card. If you decide to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your car.
What side of the road do you drive on in Jaffna?
Cars drive on the left in Jaffna. This means that the driver’s seat and other controls are also on the other side to what you’re used to. Leave some extra time to get the hang of your rental car before you hit the road.
Where can I find a Jaffna car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the holiday home companies located in Jaffna. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, take note that additional costs may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
