What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Machu Picchu?
A comprehensive insurance plan is a fantastic idea for your Machu Picchu trip. That's why we recommend opting in to collision protection while booking your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may need you to have a minimum level of liability insurance. It's possible that this is included in your rental cost or your own auto insurance, so check what you're covered for.
Can I drive in Machu Picchu with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Peru, then you'll likely need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need 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 vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before driving away. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental car.
