Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Kanyakumari car reservation?
We appreciate that flexibility is important. That's why many bookings provide a complete refund if you let us know six hours in advance of collecting the car. You may want to scan your policy though as there are some exclusions. If there's nothing specified there, make your way to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Kanyakumari?
Keep costs low with an economy, style it up in a premium ride or choose something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to go past a compact car — the top pick in Kanyakumari. They're a snap to handle and park, fuel-efficient and a great idea if you're road-tripping around big cities. An upgrade from economy, you can expect a little more comfort and room while still getting a terrific deal.
Where can I go on a road trip from Kanyakumari?
After you've been to all of the terrific attractions in Kanyakumari, there's heaps more to explore in the surrounding region. Grab the keys to a rental car, throw your luggage in the trunk and get on the road. These are some drives you're sure to enjoy:

  • Thiruvananthapuram is around 80 kilometres from Kanyakumari. Notable sights like Shri Padmanabhaswamy Temple should be high on your list here.
  • Why not check out the best of Neyyattinkara too? Popular sights in this colourful city include Vizhinjam Beach. Neyyattinkara is roughly 64 kilometres from Kanyakumari.

It's easy to pick up an amazing deal with Expedia. Simply choose your preferred car type, select your dates and preferred pickup and drop-off points, and compare offers from all the major brands. Make even bigger savings when you combine your Kanyakumari car rental with flight or hotel bookings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kanyakumari?
Generally, the rules are 18 years and over in Kanyakumari. It's important to note that most companies will charge extra fees for young renters. Check before you choose your ride, as different rules may apply between rental car suppliers. Keep in mind that if you want to rent a luxury ride or a large car like a premium SUV, you may need to be older than 18.
What do you need to rent a car in Kanyakumari?
Most rental companies will need these two things — a valid driver's licence and credit card. If you'd prefer to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What side of the road do you drive on in Kanyakumari?
In Kanyakumari, all cars drive on the left-hand side of the road. This is obviously different from driving in the U.S, so be careful and concentrate when you're behind the wheel.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Kanyakumari?
Yes, which means you won't need to rebook a rental vehicle in the middle of your holiday. Click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and find a set of wheels that's all yours for the next month or so.
Where can I find a Kanyakumari car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you'll have to do some research. Found a Kanyakumari outlet that does rent to under 25s? Awesome! Just take note that some companies charge extra fees to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're looking at will have all the information you need.
