Answers to popular questions

A rental car typically costs 21$ a day. However, the costs start at 9$ per day and can go as high as 84$ per day. The final price is directly influenced by the category of rental vehicles, the vehicle's features, your age, the date of booking, the length of the rental, etc.

Even if you caused the damage, third-party insurance is usually included in the rental price. This insurance does not cover car or driver damage.
Many base contracts include a large deductible (damages not insured by the rental provider). If you cause an accident, you must pay the contract's deductible to repair the rental car. You can add extra insurance to your rental to cover car damage. Did you know that some banks cover you when traveling if you used your card to pay?

The freedom to see sights at your own pace and on your own timetable is a major perk of having a rental car while on vacation. It's nice to be able to schedule your travel whenever you'd like, whether that's at the crack of dawn or after midnight to avoid crowded bus or train times.

You can rent almost any kind of car in Orkney, from small, cheap cars to high-end ones. Here are some things you might want to think about:

A size of the car: A bigger car may be more comfortable on the highway, but many beautiful villages in Orkney have narrow streets. Parking garages are often small, and getting in and out of them can be a nightmare. Toyota Aygo is the most well-liked model among economy classes in Orkney. From EUROPCAR the daily rate for this vehicle begins at 14$. For those who want some extra comfort and have the appropriate budget, EAST COAST is ready to offer a Business-class model - Audi A6, price starts at 52$ per day.
Most rental cars in Orkney are manual, but more and more automatic cars are becoming available. Automatic cars usually cost more to rent, and if your license only lets you drive an automatic car, you won't be able to rent a stick shift car.

All car rental agencies allow booking the vehicle's main features but not a specific model. Because a specific model can break, be in an accident, be kept by the prior tenant, etc. Your voucher code sets the main parameters (e.g. CDAR). Code decoding:

The same card must be used to guarantee the rental agreement when you pick up the vehicle. We accept two types of cards:

We will accept a credit card as a guarantee. Our front desk staff is not permitted to accept a credit card if it is not clearly designated as such.
If you purchase our Platinum Insurance plan for the duration of your rental time, we can acccept a debit or prepaid card.

Rent a car without a deposit

Just keep in mind that the rental agreement must be signed in person at pick-up by the cardholder/renter, as well as by any other drivers. Additionally, the card must still be valid 100 days after the rental time has ended.
