Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in San José?
Fun road trip adventures in San José await, with daily car rental rates starting from as little as $39. That's based on prices found within the past seven days.
What happens if I need to cancel my San José car reservation?
Read through the rental agreement to be sure, but almost all reservations are eligible for a total refund if you let us know at least six hours before pickup. There are some exclusions though. Your itinerary will have more information, or just jump onto our Customer Service Portal.
Where can I go on a road trip from San José?
There's lots on offer in San José, but head farther afield and you'll find more sightseeing magic. Organize a set of wheels and you can explore the greater area at your own speed. Add these awesome places to your itinerary:

  • Make your way to Madrid for a fantastic sightseeing experience. Roughly 110 miles from San José, it's home to numerous great sights, including Plaza Mayor.
  • Around 110 miles away, Toledo is also a favorite with travelers. Make sure you get to Toledo Cathedral while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love staying a while in this thriving city.

How do I find the best car rental deals in San José with Expedia?
Browse our extensive range of rental cars, check out customer reviews and compare prices from major suppliers. In a few easy clicks, Expedia will help you get the best deal on your ride. Got a hotel or flight booking? Add on your San José car rental to save even more money.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in San José?
Drivers with a valid license 21 and above can rent a vehicle in San José. While some providers may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, prepare for additional fees. Find out what age range the young renter fee applies to, and what it costs, before booking. Outlets also restrict the types of cars available to young drivers. Higher limits are in place for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in San José?
The main things are your driver's license and a credit card in your name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. Be sure to check with your supplier to avoid any problems.
What side of the road do you drive on in San José?
Like the U.S, you'll need to stick to the right in Spain. However, that doesn't mean other rules are the same. Familiarize yourself with the local traffic regulations before arriving in San José.
What is the cheapest car rental in San José?
San José has no doubt had some happy rental car customers lately. Daily rates within the past seven days were as low as $39 and $40. 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 José?
Yes, and the wonderful news is suppliers often offer lower prices the longer you rent. Explore our long-term car rental deals in San José and hit the road with an unbeatable bargain.
Where can I find a San José car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some San José providers will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some outlets will pass on a surcharge to young customers between 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in San José?
For a smooth, stress-free journey, add Expedia's collision damage protection to your rental car booking. This insurance covers your ride against theft, vandalism and collision damage. It also provides customers with 24-hour emergency support in times of need. Opt in to this plan while finalizing your San José ride with Expedia and save time and money at the rental counter.
Can I drive in San José with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Spain, then you'll likely 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 won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your current driver's 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 license and passport. Some added requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most places to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may 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 rules and regulations before driving away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
