Where can I find a Monterey car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies operating in Monterey. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, take note that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before you collect the car.
Can I drive in Monterey with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars 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 local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home vehicle. Please read the details before booking!
