Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my São Francisco car reservation?
We get that plans can change at short notice. That's why a large number of prepaid rentals allow for a full refund if you cancel six hours prior to the scheduled collection time. Your cancellation policy should contain all the info you need. If you can't see the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is available to help.
What types of cars can I rent in São Francisco?
Most visitors choose to rent economy vehicles in São Francisco. Motorists love them because they're easy on the budget. Plus, their smaller size makes them ideal for getting around cities, where streets are crowded and parking can be tough. But economy isn't your only option. Compacts, mid-size and full-size cars are part of our rental range too. Whether you're hanging around São Francisco or headed beyond, we'll have the wheels for you.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in São Francisco?
You'll need to be at least 21 to sit in the driver's seat of a rental vehicle in São Francisco. Bear in mind that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car classes, such as compact and economy. Higher age limits usually apply for specialty and premium vehicles. Additionally, many companies will charge a fee for young renters. Read through the rules carefully before clicking the book button and factor any surcharge into your travel budget.
What do you need to rent a car in São Francisco?
Your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of other coverage. The requirements may differ between rental suppliers, so read your policy thoroughly.

If you don't have much experience driving in a foreign country, you may be glad to know that you'll be sticking to the right in São Francisco. Traffic conditions will differ though, so drive accordingly.

Where can I find a São Francisco car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you'll have to do a bit of shopping around. Found a São Francisco outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? Great!
