What types of cars can I rent in São Francisco?
Whatever suits your style! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you're travelling with the family, or scale up to a premium for a top-of-the-range ride.

Squeezing into narrow parking spots will be a cinch!

Be sure to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in São Francisco?

What side of the road do you drive on in São Francisco?

Where can I find a São Francisco car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the São Francisco rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years old, some companies will charge extra costs. It's ideal to know about this in advance so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for young drivers, so it pays to do your research.
