Conduct some research into any extra charges before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Santa Bárbara?
A comprehensive insurance plan is a wise choice for your Santa Bárbara vacation. That's why we recommend adding collision protection while booking your rental car with Expedia.

It's possible that this is included in your rental price or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and whether you need it.
Can I drive in Santa Bárbara with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Brazil, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. Also consider that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your current license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most places to rent a car. If you're younger than that, 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 sliding behind the wheel. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental car.
