What happens if I need to cancel my San Francisco car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours before the pickup time, the majority of prepaid reservations offer a total refund. However, not every one is eligible for this, so it’s important to understand the rental agreement.

Can I drive in San Francisco with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes, your current U.S. License is all you need to legally drive in San Francisco. But if you’re the type of adventurer who prefers to be on the safe side, get yourself an International Driving Permit. Apply for it before you leave home.

Where can I find a San Francisco car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to look into the age policy of the San Francisco rental suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25, some companies will charge extra fees. It’s useful to know about this in advance so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own policies for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
