Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Santiago?
You get serious bang for your travel buck in Santiago, with car rental prices within the past seven days starting from as low as $31 a day.
Can I rent a car from Arturo Merino Benitez Airport (SCL)?
Take your pick of a fantastic selection of rental car suppliers within a short distance of the airport. Alamo, Budget and Ace are top picks for many travelers. Avis and NÜ Car Rentals are a couple of other quality options.
What happens if I need to cancel my Santiago car reservation?
Browse over your rental policy to be certain, but almost all prepaid reservations will receive a total refund if you notify us at least six hours ahead of pickup. There are some exclusions though. Your booking will have more details, or just hop onto our Customer Service Portal.
Where can I go on a road trip from Santiago?
Santiago is full of fun adventures, but don't limit yourself to only one place. Grab a set of wheels and hit the road to see what else awaits in the surrounding region. These are some great options:

  • Vina del Mar is 60 miles from Santiago. Well-known tourist spots like Quinta Vergara Amphitheatre deserve a place on your must-see list here.
  • Next stop? Valparaiso, which is around 65 miles away. Casa Mirador de Lukas is one local highlight you really shouldn't miss.
  • Make your way to Reserva Nacional Radal Siete Tazas to rediscover nature. Pack a picnic to enjoy or just chill out in the fresh air. From Santiago, it's about 140 miles away.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Santiago with Expedia?
It's easy to find an amazing deal with Expedia. Simply choose the car class, select your dates and pickup and drop-off locations, and browse offers from all the major rental suppliers. Save even more when you combine your Santiago car rental with flight or hotel bookings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Santiago?
Santiago requires drivers to be 21 and above before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra cost and some choice restrictions. Most companies impose a young renter fee on top of the usual rental rate. This covers the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and mid-size) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Santiago?
Be prepared to present a valid driver's license and a credit card at the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your selected company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance.
What is the cheapest car rental in Santiago?
According to prices found within the past seven days, the lowest daily rate for a rental car in Santiago was $31. The next best price was $34 a day. 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 Santiago?
Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then reserve your ideal ride. Whether you're basing yourself in Santiago or venturing far beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an awesome rate.
Where can I find a Santiago car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies that are in Santiago. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25, take note that additional costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Santiago?
It's a good idea to add collision protection while reserving your Santiago rental car with Expedia. This covers your vehicle against collision damage, theft and vandalism throughout your vacation. Offering up to $35,000 in primary coverage and 24-hour emergency assistance, you can breathe easy knowing you'll be covered if the unexpected happens. Simply opt in to this plan while making your booking.
Can I drive in Santiago with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Chile, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, 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 getting behind the wheel. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental vehicle.
