What types of cars can I rent in Thomson?
Economical, easy to handle and delivering great mileage, it’s not surprising compact cars are the most sought-after home in Thomson. Tour this city in one of these and you’ll be able to slide into tight parking spaces and easily get around 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 ride or bigger with a full-size or premium — the choice is all yours!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Thomson?
Usually, the rules are 21 years of age and over in Thomson. It should be noted that most outlets will apply a young renter surcharge. Read the fine print before you sign up, as rules may differ between rental car providers. Keep in mind that if you’re planning to rent a specialty vehicle or a large car like a premium SUV, drivers may need to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in Thomson?

What side of the road do you drive on in Thomson?
Unlike the States, motorists in Thomson drive on the left-hand side of the road. Having the driver’s seat and controls like indicators on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Take a few moments to familiarize yourself with the car and its quirks before getting on the road.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Thomson?
Expedia makes it easy to pick up an affordable long-term holiday home in Thomson. Simply head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and browse your options.
Where can I find a Thomson car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Thomson providers will rent cars to drivers under 25 and others won’t. Policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll want to do some research. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to young drivers between 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
