Los Angeles - Road Trip Ideas

Fly in, pick up your keys to a cool car rental from Los Angeles airport (LAX), and strap yourself in for a Californian road trip adventure. Renting a car means you can pick the perfect wheels to fit your plans. You could rent an SUV for a round trip taking in majestic Yosemite, then head on to the deep blue waters of Lake Tahoe. Or enjoy a one-way rental in a convertible and cruise along Highway 1, going from beach to beach before dropping off your keys in another city. Whether you go east or head north or south hugging the twists and turns of the coastline, the best Los Angeles road trips are just a car rental booking away.

Los Angeles to Las Vegas

Drive from California’s beaches to a desert oasis with a one-way car rental from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. LAX to LAS is 282 miles, which takes around 5 hours to drive directly, depending on traffic, but it’s much more fun to take your time and stop along the way. From the airport, drive to Santa Monica to stay in a beautiful beach hotel. You could drive to Palm Springs for an oasis of cool pools and cocktails near Joshua Tree National Park or take iconic Route 66 for retro diner stops around Barstow. Nearby Calico Ghost Town is worth a visit and if you stay overnight, the Skyline Drive-in is a must. Cruise through Mojave National Preserve and drive along the Sunset Strip at dusk for a dazzling arrival in Las Vegas, in perfect time to hit the nightlife or hit the pillow in your hotel room!

Los Angeles to San Francisco

The rugged twists and turns through Big Sur along the dramatic Pacific Coast Highway is one of the best drives in the world. Take a car rental from LA to San Francisco for an unforgettable 442-mile drive taking 8 to 9 hours total, but it’s well worth spending a week over. Stops in Malibu and Santa Barbara give you a taste of classic California beach life. Julia Pfeiffer State Park offers thrilling cliff-edge roads and redwood trees. Take a tour of Hearst Castle, an opulent mansion once owned by William Randolph Hearst, and stay in cute Monterey and beautiful Carmel—home to many actors and musicians. The City by the Bay is calling, so drop off your ride and hop on a cable car for a historic end to your amazing road trip.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Los Angeles with Expedia?
Expedia makes it simple to compare prices, offers and providers, and to check customer ratings. Combine your Los Angeles car rental with hotel or flight bookings and you’ll make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Los Angeles?
Los Angeles rules state drivers must be at least 21 to be able to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and some restrictions on choice. Most companies impose a young renter fee in addition to the normal car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like economy and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Los Angeles?
The main things are a valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. Be sure to check with your supplier to avoid any problems.
What is the cheapest car rental in Los Angeles?
With rates starting as low as $29 and $33 per day in Los Angeles within the past seven days, you’ll be speeding off with your own fantastic deal in no time.

Yes, and you’ll find your perfect ride on our long-term car rental deals page. Just enter your trip dates and we’ll show you fantastic options from numerous trusted suppliers.
Where can I find a Los Angeles car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so you’ll have to do a little shopping around. Managed to find a Los Angeles outlet that does rent to under 25s? Great! Just keep in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you’re considering should have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Los Angeles?
A thorough insurance policy is a wise choice for your Los Angeles trip. That’s why we recommend choosing collision protection while reserving your car rental with Expedia. This covers your vehicle from theft, vandalism and collision damage. Some destinations may also require a minimum level of liability insurance. It’s possible that this is included in your rental cost or your own auto insurance, so check what you’re covered for.
