Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Daniel Oduber Intl. Airport (LIR)?
Touch down at Daniel Oduber Intl. Airport (LIR) and then head for Payless or Economy, both a short distance away. You'll be exploring Cartagena in your own set of wheels before you know it.
What happens if I need to cancel my Cartagena car reservation?
There are always times when plans suddenly change. That's why we give your money back on most rentals if you notify us a minimum of six hours prior to pickup. Be sure to double-check your cancellation policy — sometimes it's not an option. Found nothing there? Our Customer Service Portal has more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Cartagena?
Mini, economy, full-size, premium ... The choice is all yours! However, compact models are the most popular in Cartagena. If you're looking for something inexpensive and small, but not too small, this category of rental car is a great choice. Navigating traffic-filled streets will be a cinch in one of these. Compact cars are slightly roomier than economy models and are suited to families on a budget, couples or solo travellers.
Where can I go on a road trip from Cartagena?
There are lots of things to see and do in Cartagena, but head further afield and you'll find even more magic. Pick up a set of wheels and you can wander around the surrounding region at your own pace. Add these awesome destinations to your itinerary:

  • San José is roughly 177 kilometres from Cartagena. Renowned attractions like National Museum of Costa Rica deserve to be at the top of your list while you're in town.
  • Next stop? Make it Puntarenas, which is around 105 kilometres away. Puntarenas Pier is one local highlight you won't want to miss.
  • Manuel Antonio National Park is 209 kilometres from Cartagena and is one of the region's most gorgeous nature spots. Stretch your legs and enjoy the fresh air here.

Where can I find a Cartagena car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a bit of shopping around. Managed to find a Cartagena supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Great news!
