What types of cars can I rent in Goleta?
Bustling city streets and cramped parking spaces are no problem for an economy car — the most in-demand type of rental in Goleta. Jump behind the wheel of one of these and drive around traffic like a dream. Reliable, affordable and with excellent mileage, these small cars pack plenty of punch. But Goleta can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compacts, SUVs and full-size vehicles are other options to consider.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Goleta?
If you're 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Goleta. Bear in mind that rental outlets will charge an extra fee if you're a young driver, which is meant to cover the higher accident risk involved. Also, young motorists usually aren't permitted to rent larger vehicles and luxury cars. Read through the fine print before you book to avoid any hassles when you pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Goleta?
Renting a car in Goleta is easy. Generally, all you'll need is your driver's licence and a credit card. After settling on your wheels, look up the terms and conditions to make sure there are no further requirements prior to pickup.

Yes. Expedia partners with quality suppliers that offer long-term rentals for many car categories. Book one of our long-term car rental deals and discover every square inch of Goleta — or beyond!
Where can I find a Goleta car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies that are in Goleta. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, bear in mind that extra fees may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before booking your rental.
Can I drive in Goleta with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the U.S, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals 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 areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home. Please read the details before booking!
