Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in San José?
Exciting road trip adventures in San José await, with daily rental car rates starting from as low as $44. That’s based on prices found within the past seven days.
What happens if I need to cancel my San José car reservation?
We get that flexibility on the road is important. That’s why many prepaid bookings provide a total refund if you notify us at least six hours ahead of the scheduled collection time. You may want to scan your agreement though as there are some exceptions. If you can’t find the answer there, make your way to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in San José?
Crowded city streets and tight parking spots are no hassle for an economy car — the most sought-after rental type in San José. Hop behind the wheel of one of these and drive around traffic easily. Affordable, reliable and with excellent mileage, these small cars pack a punch. But San José can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compact, full-size and premium vehicles are some other options to choose from.
Where can I go on a road trip from San José?
Book a rental car, collect the keys and prepare to discover all the sights and sounds of San José. But with so much more to see in the surrounding areas, don’t stop there! Set your sat-nav to some of the other inspiring places in the region:

  • Roughly 80 mi from San José, Medellin is on the itinerary of many visitors. With leading attractions like Botero Plaza, there’s no shortage of things to keep you busy here.
  • Bogotá, around 120 mi away, will also show you a good time. Curious what there is to see? Monserrate is our top pick.
  • Get some distance between you and the hustle and bustle of the city at Farallones de Cali National Park. Approximately 140 mi from San José, it’s the perfect place to get a fix of nature.

Why should I rent a San José car with Expedia?
Expedia is your one-stop shop for everything you need for your vacation, including rental cars. With suppliers to pick from in San José, our aim is to find you the best deal possible. Whether you want to book a set of wheels, hotels, flights or activities, you’ll find special offers and member prices on Expedia.

How do I find the best car rental deals in San José with Expedia?
Nabbing the best deal on your San José rental car is easy with Expedia. Choose your preferred car class, add some details and compare prices from top suppliers. Why not add hotels and flights to your booking? You’ll unlock even more savings when you combine your bookings into a package.
What do you need to rent a car in San José?
Your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Don’t want to take out the company’s insurance plan? Then there’s a good chance you’ll also need proof of your own coverage. Rules can differ between providers, so read your policy thoroughly.
What is the cheapest car rental in San José?
$44 and $46 were the two lowest daily prices for rental cars in San José within the past seven days. 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?
You can. Expedia partners with trusted providers that offer long-term rentals for all categories of cars. Check out our long-term car rental deals and explore every bit of San José — or beyond!
Where can I find a San José car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so be prepared to do a little research. Managed to find a San José outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? That’s great! Just keep in mind that a surcharge often applies to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you’re considering will have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in San José?
It’s wise to have collision protection to cover your San José rental car against accident damage, theft and vandalism. And with Expedia, you can easily add this insurance to your vehicle at the time of booking. Covering primary physical damage of up to $35,000, it also offers 24-hour emergency support and no deductible should you need to make a claim. Have your plans changed? If you cancel your policy before your scheduled pick-up time, you’ll receive a full refund.
