What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Santa Cruz do Douro?
A comprehensive insurance policy is a great idea for your upcoming Santa Cruz do Douro getaway. That's why we recommend choosing collision protection while reserving your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, vandalism and accident damage. 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 whether you need it.
Can I drive in Santa Cruz do Douro with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Portugal, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. It's also important to note that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your current license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most 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 the types of vehicles available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
