How old do you have to be to rent a car in Santa Cruz?
Santa Cruz rules state drivers must be 18 and over to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and some choice restrictions. Most companies impose a young renter fee on top of the usual rental rate. This helps cover the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car classes (like economy and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Cruz?
Be prepared to present a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name when you get to the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your chosen rental company whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.

Santa Cruz has had some very happy rental car customers lately. Daily prices within the past seven days dropped as low as $102 and $106. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.

Where can I find a Santa Cruz car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a bit of research. Managed to find a Santa Cruz supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? Awesome! Just be aware that extra charges often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Santa Cruz?
Make a safe start to your road trip by selecting Expedia's collision protection. While there are all kinds of rental car insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for collision damage, vandalism and theft up to $35,000, as well as round-the-clock emergency support. Don't wait until you reach the rental counter to insure your ride. Opt in to collision protection while booking your Santa Cruz ride with Expedia and save time and money.
Can I drive in Santa Cruz with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Colombia, 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 have 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 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 countries 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 the types of vehicles available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
