10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Sedona

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for cost-effectiveness, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the ideal match for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you’re more likely to obtain lower rates and better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy areas. Mid-size rentals offer a good compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 years old may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This also applies to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements stipulate a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure to return the car empty in this instance.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You will often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but this may be worthwhile for the added convenience.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provide peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It’s straightforward to include car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra fees.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.

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

It's ideal to know this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own policies for young drivers, so it pays to do your research.
Can I drive in Sedona with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the U.S, then you might need to get 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, note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
