How do I find the best car rental deals in San Antonio with Expedia?
It's easy to find an incredible deal with Expedia. Simply choose your wheels, select your dates and preferred pickup and drop-off locations, and browse offers from all the top suppliers. Make even bigger savings when you bundle your San Antonio car rental with hotel or flight bookings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in San Antonio?
Anyone with a valid driver's license aged 21 and above can rent a vehicle in San Antonio. While some outlets may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 21, a fee will be added. Find out what age range the young renter fee applies to, and the cost, before booking your wheels. Companies also restrict the types of cars available to young drivers. Higher age limits apply for specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in San Antonio?
Any rental company you select will need these two things — a current driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you choose to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.

Yes. Expedia partners with quality providers that offer weekly and monthly rentals for many car categories. Head to our long-term car rental deals and discover every part of San Antonio — or beyond!
Where can I find a San Antonio car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so you'll have to do a little homework. Managed to find a San Antonio outlet that does rent to under 25s? Awesome! Just be aware that a surcharge often applies to drivers aged between 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 San Antonio?
After meticulously planning your escape, don't scrimp on your insurance — purchase collision protection while reserving your San Antonio rental vehicle with Expedia.
