What types of cars can I rent in Ottawa?
Not too small and not too big, compact cars are the number one choice for many travelers to Ottawa. Offering superb mileage and easy maneuverability and parking, they're ideal for zipping around the city. A compact is slightly roomier than an economy vehicle, so you can hit the road in a bit more comfort. Prefer something bigger? Check out our standard, intermediate and full-size options.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ottawa?
If you're aged 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Ottawa. Take note that rental outlets will charge an extra fee if you're a young driver, which is meant to cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young motorists are generally restricted from renting larger vehicles and luxury cars. Read through the terms and conditions before booking to avoid any surprises when it's time to collect the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Ottawa?
Any rental company you select will need these two things — a current driver's license and credit card. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Ottawa?

Where can I find an Ottawa car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so be prepared to do some research. Found an Ottawa supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? Terrific! Just be aware that some companies charge extra fees to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in will have all the information you need.
