What insurance should I choose for my car rental in San Diego?
A comprehensive insurance plan is a great idea for your San Diego getaway. That's why we recommend adding collision protection while booking your rental car with Expedia. This covers your vehicle from theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may require a minimum level of liability insurance. This may already be included in your rental price or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and if you need it.
Can I drive in San Diego with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Brazil, then you may need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll have 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 matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in most places 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 cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with your rental car.
