Question 5

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Downtown Monterey?

Accepted Answer

What do you need to rent a car in Downtown Monterey?

Accepted Answer

Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you choose to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.

Accepted Answer
