What do you need to rent a car in Salinas?
Generally, all that's required is a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name when picking up your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be required if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance plan. These requirements often differ between suppliers, so it's always wise to check before you book.

Where can I find a Salinas car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a car if you're under 25 years in Salinas often depends on the rental provider you choose. Some places apply a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24 years old, but others may not apply any extra costs for this age range. Ensure you read the terms and conditions of your prospective car company to escape unnecessary costs when collecting your car.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Salinas?
We recommend adding collision protection while reserving your Salinas car rental with Expedia. This covers your ride against vandalism, theft and accident damage throughout your vacation. Offering up to $35,000 in primary coverage and round-the-clock emergency help, you can take the wheel knowing you'll be covered if the unexpected occurs. You can opt in to this plan while making your booking.
Can I drive in Salinas with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Ecuador, then you'll likely need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity 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, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before sliding behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with a rental vehicle.
