Check out customer reviews and ratings, choose your favorite ride and compare prices from leading providers. Expedia makes it easy to nab the best deal on your rental wheels. Combine your Rancho Santa Fe car rental with flight or hotel bookings and drive away with even more in your wallet.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Rancho Santa Fe?
In Rancho Santa Fe, the rule is usually 21 years and over. Most companies will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can vary depending on the rental location.

It's a good idea to read the fine print carefully before booking your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Rancho Santa Fe?
Any rental company you choose will require two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.

Where can I find a Rancho Santa Fe car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Rancho Santa Fe rental providers you're considering. If you're under the age of 25, some outlets will charge extra fees. It's ideal to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Rancho Santa Fe?
Start your road trip the right way by choosing Expedia's collision protection. While there are all kinds of rental car insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for theft, vandalism and collision damage up to $35,000, as well as round-the-clock emergency assistance. Don't wait until you arrive at the rental desk to insure your precious wheels. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Rancho Santa Fe ride with Expedia and save money and time.
