How old do you have to be to rent a car in Santa Ynez Valley?
Santa Ynez Valley requires drivers to be 21 and over to rent a car. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and stricter rental conditions. Many outlets impose a young renter fee on top of the standard car rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like economy and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to specialty and premium cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Ynez Valley?
A valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? Then there's a good chance you'll also need proof of other coverage. Rules may differ between providers, so read through your policy.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Santa Ynez Valley?
Expedia makes it a breeze to score a quality long-term car rental in Santa Ynez Valley. Simply visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip preferences and explore your possibilities.
Where can I find a Santa Ynez Valley car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you'll have to do a bit of homework. Managed to find a Santa Ynez Valley outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific news! Just take note that extra charges often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're considering will have all the details you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Santa Ynez Valley?
A thorough insurance policy is a wise choice for your Santa Ynez Valley adventure. That's why we recommend opting in to collision protection while reserving your rental car with Expedia. This covers your vehicle from theft, vandalism and accident damage. Some destinations may require a minimum level of liability insurance. This might be included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and if you need it.
