Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Southampton?
Within the past seven days, the lowest daily price found for a budget car rental in Southampton was CA $87.
Can I rent a car from Southampton Airport (SOU)?
Take your pick of a fantastic selection of car rental outlets just a short drive from the airport. Fox Rental Cars, Easirent EU and Avis are popular with many travellers. Hertz and Budget are a couple of other quality options.
What happens if I need to cancel my Southampton car reservation?
We know that flexibility while travelling is important. That's why the majority of prepaid rentals provide a full refund if you cancel at least six hours ahead of pickup. It's a good idea to scan your cancellation policy though as there are some exemptions. If there's nothing specified there, head to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Southampton?
Keep costs low with an economy, splash out on a premium ride or choose something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to beat a compact vehicle — the top pick in Southampton. They're easy to park and handle, fuel-efficient and an excellent idea if you're driving around bustling cities. A step up from economy, you can expect a bit more room and comfort while still getting a terrific deal.
Where can I go on a road trip from Southampton?
Southampton has plenty to keep you busy, but don't limit yourself to only one place. Arrange a set of wheels and head off to explore the surrounding area. Here are some ideas:

  • London is approximately 113 kilometres from Southampton. Notable tourist attractions like Big Ben deserve a place on your must-see list while you're in town.
  • Approximately 97 kilometres away, Oxford is also a hit with wanderers. Allow time to experience Christ Church College while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love visiting this colourful city.
  • Spend time in the outdoors and breathe in some fresh air at Sherwood Forest Country Park. You'll find it roughly 257 kilometres from Southampton.

Why should I rent a Southampton car with Expedia?

How do I find the best car rental deals in Southampton with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy and fast to compare rates, offers and rental providers, and to check customer recommendations. Combine your Southampton car rental with flight or hotel bookings and you can save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Southampton?
Usually, the requirement is 21 years of age and over in Southampton. You should be aware that most outlets will charge additional fees for young renters. Read the fine print before you book your ride, as rules may differ between rental car providers. Keep in mind that if you want to rent a specialty ride or a large car like an SUV, rules may require drivers to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in Southampton?
Two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. Make sure you check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any hassles.
What side of the road do you drive on in Southampton?
Unlike the States, motorists in Southampton drive on the left-hand side of the road. Having the driver's seat and some controls on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the car before getting on the road.
What is the cheapest car rental in Southampton?
CA $87 and CA $88 were the lowest daily rates picked up by car renters in Southampton within the past seven days. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Southampton?
Yes, and you're sure to find your ideal wheels on our long-term car rental deals page. Simply enter your trip information and we'll list incredible options from numerous leading companies.
Where can I find a Southampton car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental car companies operating in Southampton. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, bear in mind that extra fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before collecting the vehicle.
