Where can I find a Bristol hire car if I am younger than 25?
Hiring a car under the age of 25 in Bristol often depends on the hire provider you select. Some places have a surcharge for young customers aged between 21 and 24 years, whereas other companies may not have any extra costs for this age group. It’d be good to understand the terms and conditions of your selected hire car dealer to escape unnecessary costs when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Bristol with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car. 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 identification. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the car hire company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hire vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
