10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Downtown Las Vegas

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to identify the best option 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 are likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy greater availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy locations. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and some vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—may not be offered. This can also impact renters over 70 years of age. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most advantageous option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel choices, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in this case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You may often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car from airports, but this could be worth it for the added convenience it provides.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies only accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can assist in avoiding unnecessary expenses and offers you added peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It is straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking with Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you are planning extensive road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.

Downtown Las Vegas rules state drivers must be at least 21 before they can hire a car. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra charge and stricter hire conditions. Many outlets impose a young renter fee on top of the hire car rate. This helps cover the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like mid-size and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to hire a car in Downtown Las Vegas?
Two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name. Many car hire companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you prefer to opt out. Check with your rental agency to avoid any hassles.

Where can I find a Downtown Las Vegas hire car if I am younger than 25?
Some Downtown Las Vegas companies will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll have to do your homework. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some outlets will pass on a surcharge to customers between 21 and 24. Be sure to read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Downtown Las Vegas with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hired cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the car hire company before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with a hired car. Please read the regulations before booking!
