You'll discover Monument to the Equator and lots more interesting attractions in Quito. From San Antonio, it's roughly 40 miles away.

Question 5

What do you need to rent a car in San Antonio?

Any rental company you select will ask for these two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name.

Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.

Question 8

Where can I find a San Antonio car rental if I am younger than 25?

Accepted Answer

Some San Antonio companies will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so you'll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.

Question 9

What insurance should I choose for my car rental in San Antonio?

Accepted Answer

After carefuly planning your escape, don't skimp on safety — add collision protection while booking your San Antonio car rental with Expedia. There are tons of advantages to this plan, including up to $35,000 in primary coverage for collision damage, theft and vandalism. Plus, with no deductible and 24-hour emergency assistance, you'll be able to breathe a little easier if a mishap occurs.

Question 10

Can I drive in San Antonio with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't have a driver's license issued in Ecuador, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, 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 you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some added 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 than that, 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 available to rent.
Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
