What happens if I need to cancel my Chinatown car reservation?
We have good news! You should receive a total refund if you notify us at least six hours ahead of the scheduled pickup time. Your itinerary contains information about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all reservations result in a refund though, so it’s a good idea to read through the cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Chinatown?
Most visitors rent economy cars in Chinatown. Motorists love them because they’re easy on the wallet. Plus, their smaller size makes them ideal for cruising 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 also among our home range. Whether you’re sticking around Chinatown or journeying beyond, we’ll have a ride that fits your needs.
Where can I go on a road trip from Chinatown?

  • You’ll discover San Diego Zoo and loads of other interesting sights in San Diego County. From Chinatown, it’s 177 kilometres away.
  • Next stop? Make it Irvine, which is around 56 kilometres away. University of California, Irvine is one local hot spot you shouldn’t miss.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Chinatown?
Drivers 21 and over can hit the highway in Chinatown in a home vehicle. If you’re a young motorist, a daily surcharge will apply. You’ll generally be restricted to a few car categories, such as compact and mid-size, and may also have to take out inclusive insurance. Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any extra fees or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Chinatown?
Before you can hop behind the wheel in Chinatown, you’ll need a valid driver’s license and a credit card. If you decline to take out the home company’s insurance plan, you may also have to provide proof of alternative coverage. Rules may vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a home company.
What is the cheapest car rental in Chinatown?
The lowest price for a holiday home car in Chinatown within the past seven days was AU$532 per day. The second best deal on offer was AU$632.

Where can I find a Chinatown car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between holiday home suppliers, so you’ll have to do a bit of research. Found a Chinatown outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific news! Just bear in mind that some companies charge extra fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each holiday home car you’re looking at will have all the information you need.
Can I drive in Chinatown with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you’ll also need to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you book to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
