Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Vancouver Island car reservation?
We get that things happen and plans change at short notice. That's why most reservations offer a complete refund if you cancel a minimum of six hours before the collection time. Your cancellation policy should include all the info you need. If you can't locate the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is here to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Vancouver Island?
From wallet-friendly economy rides to premium cars and spacious SUVs, you have plenty of choice. But if you're looking for something in between, go for an intermediate vehicle. The most sought-after rental in Vancouver Island is more comfortable than an economy or compact car. Another bonus? There's more space for luggage and legs. Discovering this exciting city will be a dream in an intermediate.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Vancouver Island?
The minimum age is 21. But there are a handful of age-related restrictions you should bear in mind before you book your Vancouver Island wheels. If you're a younger driver, most rental suppliers will charge an additional daily fee and limit the types of vehicles you can rent. The precise surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between providers. Be sure to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Vancouver Island?
Be prepared to present your driver's license and a credit card in your name at the rental counter. Prior to the pickup date, check with your selected rental company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of auto insurance.
Can I drive in Vancouver Island with my U.S. Driver's license?
You sure can. However it's relatively easy to arrange an International Driving Permit, so it doesn't hurt to get one. This permit allows you to drive in most countries, so you'll have peace of mind when you hit the road in Vancouver Island.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Vancouver Island?
You can. We partner with trusted providers that offer weekly and monthly rentals for a wide range of cars. Pick up one of our long-term car rental deals and explore every turn of Vancouver Island — or beyond!
Where can I find a Vancouver Island car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Vancouver Island rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years old, some companies will charge extra fees. It's ideal to know about this in advance so you can budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Vancouver Island?
For a smooth, stress-free road trip, add Expedia's collision damage protection while reserving your rental car. This insurance covers your vehicle against accident damage, vandalism and theft. It also provides 24-hour emergency assistance in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your Vancouver Island vehicle with Expedia and save money and time at the rental counter.
