Where can I find a Papagayo car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a car if you are under 25 years old in Papagayo often depends on the rental company you choose. Some outlets have a surcharge for drivers aged between 21 and 24 years, whereas other companies may not apply any additional costs for this age bracket. It'd be smart to read the terms and conditions of your chosen car company to escape extra charges when picking up your keys.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Papagayo?
A thorough insurance policy is a wise idea for your upcoming Papagayo trip. That's why we recommend purchasing collision protection while organizing your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may also require a minimum level of liability insurance. This may already be included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and if you need it.
Can I drive in Papagayo with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Costa Rica, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. Please also consider that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country 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. Some additional requirements 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, 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 getting behind the wheel. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or off road with your rental car.
