Where can I go on a road trip from San José?
San José is full of adventures, but don't restrict yourself to only one place. Book a set of wheels and hit the road to see what's in the surrounding area. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • Head to Rosario for a fantastic sightseeing experience. About 145 kilometres from San José, it's home to many inspiring attractions such as National Flag Memorial.
  • Roughly 161 kilometres away, Villa Gobernador Gálvez is also a favourite with travellers. Make sure you check out Iglesia Nuestra Senora del Rosario while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love coming to this vibrant city.
  • El Palmar National Park is 257 kilometres from San José and is one of the region's most beautiful nature spots. Pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the fresh air.

Rules may differ between companies, so look over the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in San José?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of your own coverage. The requirements may differ between providers, so read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in San José?

Where can I find a San José car rental if I am younger than 25?
