Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Koh Samet car reservation?

How do I find the best car rental deals in Koh Samet with Expedia?
Check customer reviews, choose your car type and compare prices from the most popular providers. Expedia makes it easy to get the best deal on your rental wheels. Bundle your Koh Samet car rental with flight or hotel bookings and drive away with even more savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Koh Samet?
If you’re 21 and above, you can rent a car in Koh Samet. Take into account that rental companies will charge young drivers an additional fee, which is meant to cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young drivers are generally restricted from renting larger vehicles and luxury cars. Read through the fine print before you book so there are no hassles when you collect the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Koh Samet?
Generally, you’ll need a driver’s license and credit card in your name when picking up the keys to your vehicle. You may also need proof of coverage if you decide to opt out of the company’s insurance policy. These requirements may differ between providers, so it’s always wise to check while booking.
Can I drive in Koh Samet with my U.S. Driver's license?
No, it’s most likely you’ll need an International Driving Permit in addition to your U.S. License. With one of those tucked away in the glove compartment, you can get behind the wheel in Koh Samet with total peace of mind.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Koh Samet?
Whether you plan to stay in Koh Samet or discover what’s beyond, you can reserve a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll find you affordable long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Koh Samet car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a little shopping around. Managed to find a Koh Samet supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? Awesome! Just take note that extra charges often apply to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you’re looking at should have all the details you need.
