How old do you have to be to rent a car in Big Sur?
Big Sur requires drivers to be 21 and over before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to a surcharge and some restrictions on choice. Most companies impose a daily young renter fee on top of the car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like compact and mid-size) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Big Sur?
Before you can road trip around Big Sur, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you decline to take out the company’s insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of other coverage. Rules can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a rental company.
What is the cheapest car rental in Big Sur?
Big Sur has had some very happy rental car drivers lately. Daily prices within the past seven days dropped as low as $65 and $71. 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 Big Sur?
Yes, so you won’t have to rebook a rental vehicle in the middle of your vacation. Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and secure a set of wheels to call your own for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find a Big Sur car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you’ll have to do a little research. Found a Big Sur supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? That’s great! Just bear in mind that extra fees often apply to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you’re looking at should have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Big Sur?
A comprehensive insurance policy is a wise idea for your Big Sur escape. That’s why we suggest adding collision protection while reserving your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may require a minimum level of liability insurance. It’s possible that this is included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you’re covered for.
