How old do you have to be to rent a car in Santiago?

Where can I find a Santiago car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Santiago rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, be mindful that some will charge extra fees. It's best to know about this ahead of time so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own policies for younger drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
