Istanbul car rental

Car rental in Istanbul is a great way to see the city's attractions, spread across vast coastal line and numerous hills, and also visit the countryside, however it is rather expensive partly because of high import taxes.

The minimum age for car rental is 23, but it refers only to economy cars, as upscale models are usually rented only to a person minimum of 27 years of age. International driving license and at least two years of experience are required. All major credit cards are accepted.

Minimum rental period is 24 hours, shorter ones are charged as 24 hours-period. It is necessary to know, whether the agency allows unlimited mileage or not. The next important condition is insurance, so the guests may know, what types of accident it covers. Insurance also does not cover the damages due to the misuse of the car and damages caused by gross negligence.

Collision damage waiver is void if driver is under the influence of alcohol, drugs, had passed the legal speed limits, the traffic report is not obtained from the police, damaged car and traffic report not returned to the nearest police office in 48 hours. If the car is stolen the visitor will have to pay rental fee until the day it would be found. It is best to obtain insurance from home agencies, than from local ones.

There are offices of all major international rental agencies, as well as numerous local ones. It is better to contact them before arrival. The offices include Alamo, Avis, Budget, Hertz, Europcar, Easycar, thrifty and other. Local agencies can be better deals for long-term rental.
