Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in San Francisco?
Within the past seven days in San Francisco, you could have driven off in a rental for as low as $20 per day.
What happens if I need to cancel my San Francisco car reservation?
There are always times when even the best-laid plans go wrong. That's why we give your money back on most prepaid reservations if canceled six hours ahead of the pickup time. Don't forget to double-check the policy — in some cases it's not available. Found nothing there? Our Customer Service Portal is always here to help.
Where can I go on a road trip from San Francisco?
San Francisco has plenty to keep you on the move, but don't restrict yourself to only one place. Rent some wheels and take to the road to discover what else awaits in the surrounding region. Here are some great options we've come up with:

  • You'll find New Cathedral of Salamanca and many other interesting attractions in Salamanca. From San Francisco, it's about 110 miles away.
  • Your next stop? It has to be Badajoz, which is around 50 miles away. Badajoz Fortress is one local draw card you shouldn't miss.
  • Get into the great outdoors and breathe in some fresh air at La Barrosa Beach. You'll find it around 220 miles from San Francisco.

How do I find the best car rental deals in San Francisco with Expedia?
Finding an amazing deal on your San Francisco rental car is a breeze with Expedia. Choose your preferred car class, add in a few more details and compare prices across big-name brands. Why not add hotels and flights to your booking? You'll unlock even more savings when you combine your bookings into a package.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in San Francisco?
The youngest age you can rent a vehicle in San Francisco is 21. A young driver surcharge generally applies, so check before booking and budget for any extra costs. There may also be restrictions on the types of cars available to young drivers. For example, some providers will only rent out small and medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may differ between suppliers, so read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to rent a car in San Francisco?
While booking conditions can differ between car rental outlets in San Francisco, the essentials are a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. You don't need to take out the company's insurance plan. However, proof of your own coverage may be necessary.
What side of the road do you drive on in San Francisco?
Roughly two-thirds of countries across the world drive stick to the right, and Spain is one of them. If you rent a vehicle in San Francisco, make sure you drive to local conditions for a safe journey.
What is the cheapest car rental in San Francisco?
With car rental prices starting from as low as $20 and $24 a day in San Francisco within the past seven days, you'll be driving away with your own fantastic deal in next to no time. 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 Francisco?
You can rent a car for a month or longer in San Francisco, so don't hestitate to extend your stay! Just enter your trip dates into our long-term car rental deals page and secure your ideal ride.
Where can I find a San Francisco car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a bit of research. Managed to find a San Francisco outlet that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Great news! Just keep in mind that some companies charge extra fees to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in should have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in San Francisco?
A comprehensive insurance policy is a great idea for your upcoming San Francisco escape. That's why we suggest adding collision protection while booking your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, vandalism and collision damage. Some destinations may also require a minimum level of liability insurance. It's possible that this is included in your rental price or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and whether you need it.
Can I drive in San Francisco with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Spain, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your current license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in many 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or off road with a rental car.
