Where can I find an Ideal 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. Managed to find an Ideal supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Great news! Just be aware that some companies charge extra fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in will have all the information you need.
Can I drive in Ideal with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the United States, you might need to get 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, know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with a rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
