Can you rent a car in Antalya without a deposit, without a credit card, or with less than 1 year of driving experience?
Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 2 days ago
TL;DR
Most car rental companies in Antalya require a deposit (held on a credit card) and at least 1-2 years of driving experience; with only 7 months of driving history or no credit card, big agencies often refuse, so travelers turn to private renters or small local firms.
