Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Petrópolis?

Can I rent a car from Galeao - Antonio Carlos Jobim Intl. Airport (GIG)?
With Alamo and Budget just a short commute from Galeao - Antonio Carlos Jobim Intl. Airport (GIG), getting off the plane and onto the road is quick and easy.
What happens if I need to cancel my Petrópolis car reservation?
We have good news! You should be eligible for a full refund if you cancel more than six hours prior to the scheduled pickup time. Your itinerary contains information about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid reservations will receive a refund though, so it's a good idea to check your car's cancellation policy.
Where can I go on a road trip from Petrópolis?
There are many exciting adventures to be had in Petrópolis, but venture farther afield and you'll find even more magic. Rent a set of wheels and you can roam around the surrounding region at your own speed. Add these awesome destinations to your travel schedule:

  • Make tracks to Cabo Frio for an excellent sightseeing experience. About 80 miles from Petrópolis, it's home to many amazing attractions, including Japanese Island.
  • Around 80 miles away, Angra dos Reis is also a favorite with wanderers. Make time to experience Lopes Mendes Beach while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love coming to this buzzing city.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Petrópolis?
The youngest age you can rent a vehicle in Petrópolis is 21. A young driver surcharge typically applies, so check before you book and factor in any extra costs. There could also be restrictions on the car categories that can be rented by young drivers. For example, some companies will only rent out small and medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may be different between outlets, so read the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Petrópolis?
A current driver's license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of your own coverage. Rules may differ between rental companies, so read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Petrópolis?
If you don't have a lot of experience driving overseas, you may be happy to hear that you'll be sticking to the right in Petrópolis. Traffic conditions and rules will differ though, so drive accordingly.
What is the cheapest car rental in Petrópolis?
The two lowest daily rates offered in Petrópolis within the past seven days were $18 and $27. Now that's what we'd call a fantastic deal! 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 Petrópolis?

Where can I find a Petrópolis car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Petrópolis rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, some will charge additional costs. It's good to know this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Petrópolis?
It's a good idea to have collision damage protection to safeguard your Petrópolis rental car against theft, accident damage and vandalism. And with Expedia, it's easy to purchase this insurance for your vehicle during the booking process. Covering primary physical damage of up to $35,000, it also offers 24-hour emergency help and a zero-dollar deductible in the event of a claim. Have your plans changed? If you cancel your policy before your scheduled pick-up time, you'll get all your money back.
Can I drive in Petrópolis with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Brazil, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. You should also note that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before driving away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
