Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in San Diego?
Within the past seven days, the lowest daily price found for a cheap rental in San Diego was $30.
What happens if I need to cancel my San Diego car reservation?
Canceling your rental car at least six hours before pickup should allow for a complete refund. But this is not always guaranteed. It's a good idea to scan your booking confirmation and cancellation policy. Still need help? Head over to our Customer Service Portal.
Where can I go on a road trip from San Diego?
There are so many things to do in San Diego, but head farther afield and you'll find even more magic. Rent a set of wheels and you can discover the surrounding area at your own speed. Add these fantastic places to your travel schedule:

  • Make your way to Toledo for a fantastic sightseeing experience. Around 40 miles from San Diego, it has loads of great sights such as Toledo Cathedral.
  • About 45 miles away, Segovia is also a hit with wanderers. Be sure to check out Segovia Aqueduct while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love visiting this city.
  • Make your way to Palmeral of Elche to rediscover nature. Pack a picnic to enjoy or just chill out in the fresh air. From San Diego, it's roughly 220 miles away.

How do I find the best car rental deals in San Diego with Expedia?
Finding an awesome deal on your San Diego rental car is a breeze with Expedia. Choose your preferred car type, add some details and compare the offers from popular brands. Why not add flights and hotels to your booking? You'll get access to even more savings when you combine your bookings into a package.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in San Diego?
Drivers aged 21 and above can go road-tripping around San Diego in a rental car. If you're a young renter, a daily surcharge applies. You'll usually have fewer car categories to choose from, such as compact and mid-size, and may also have to take out an all-inclusive insurance rate. Always enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any extra fees or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in San Diego?
Generally, all you'll need is a current driver's license and a credit card in the same name when picking up the car. You may also need proof of coverage if you choose to opt out of the company's insurance plan. These requirements often differ between rental providers, so it's always a good idea to check in advance.
What side of the road do you drive on in San Diego?
In San Diego and around Spain, motorists drive on the right side of the road. While this is the same as in the States, remember that there's likely to be different traffic rules.
What is the cheapest car rental in San Diego?
The cheapest car rental in San Diego within the past seven days was just $30 per day. The second best deal on offer was $31. 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 San Diego?
Expedia makes it a snap to pick up a reliable long-term car rental in San Diego. Just click through to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip preferences and compare the offers.
Where can I find a San Diego car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the San Diego rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, some will charge additional costs. It's useful to know about this before collecting the vehicle so you can plan your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it's smart to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in San Diego?
For a safe, stress-free getaway, add Expedia's collision damage protection while booking your rental car. This insurance covers your vehicle against accident damage, vandalism and theft. It also provides customers with 24-hour emergency help in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your San Diego vehicle with Expedia and save money and time at the rental counter.
Can I drive in San Diego with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Spain, then it's likely you'll need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. You should also be aware that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your current license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some added requirements 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 than that, 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 you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
