Where can I find a Gulf Shores hire car if I am younger than 25?

Just take note that an extra charge often applies to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each hire car you're looking at will have all the information you need.
Can I drive in Gulf Shores with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, you might need to get 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 used to hire the car must match the name on your 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 need to be 25 or older in many states to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the car hire company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide 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, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hire car. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
