You may want to read your rental agreement though because there are some exceptions. If you can’t see any details there, make your way to our Customer Service Portal.

Featuring terrific mileage and easy parking and handling, they’re well-suited to zipping around the city.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in San Marcos?

Higher age limits usually apply for larger vehicles like premium SUVs. Most suppliers will also charge a young renter fee. Look up the rules before clicking the book button and factor any extra fees into your budget.
What do you need to rent a car in San Marcos?
A valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Don’t want to take out the company’s insurance plan? Then there’s a good chance you’ll also need proof of your own coverage. Rules can differ between rental suppliers, so have a thorough read of your policy.

Where can I find a San Marcos car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so be prepared to do a little research. Managed to find a San Marcos outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? That’s great! Just take note that extra charges often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you’re considering should have all the details you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in San Marcos?
A comprehensive insurance plan is a good idea for your upcoming San Marcos adventure. That’s why we recommend purchasing collision protection while organizing your car rental with Expedia. This covers your vehicle from theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may need you to have a minimum level of liability insurance. This might be included in your rental price or your own auto insurance, so check what you’re covered for and whether you need it.
