Can I hire a car from San Diego Intl. Airport (SAN)?
The rental car counters at San Diego Intl. Airport (SAN) can be found at the Rental Car Centre. Here you'll be able to grab some wheels at Airport Van Rental, Green Motion or Silvercar. Nu Car Hire and Mex Hire A Car also have some excellent deals.
What happens if I need to cancel my La Jolla car reservation?
We appreciate that things happen and plans change at the last minute. That's why the majority of prepaid hires offer a refund if you cancel six hours prior to the pick-up time. Your rental agreement should have all the specifics you need. If you can't see the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always accessible.
What types of cars can I rent in La Jolla?
The majority of visitors choose to rent economy vehicles in La Jolla. Motorists love them because they're affordable and fuel-efficient. Plus, their smaller size makes them perfect for exploring cities, where streets are crowded and parking spots are tight. But your options don't stop there. Compacts, mid-size and full-size cars are part of our rental range too. Whether you're sticking around La Jolla or headed beyond, we'll have the wheels for you.
Where can I go on a road trip from La Jolla?
La Jolla offers adventures galore, but don't limit yourself to just one place. Pick up a set of wheels and hit the open road to see what else awaits in the surrounding area. Here are some ideas:

  • Make your way to Anaheim for a fantastic sightseeing adventure. Approximately 80 miles from La Jolla, it has many amazing attractions such as Disneyland® Resort.
  • Why not check out everything on offer in Los Angeles too? Unmissable sights in this buzzing city include Universal Studios Hollywood. Los Angeles is 100 miles from La Jolla.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in La Jolla?
Drivers with a valid license aged 21 and over can hire a car in La Jolla. While some companies may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, you can expect extra fees. Find out what age range the young renter fee applies to, and the associated cost, before making your reservation. Companies also restrict the types of cars young drivers can rent. Higher limits are in place for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to hire a car in La Jolla?

Where can I find a La Jolla hire car if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking for a rental in La Jolla, we suggest reading the policies of the various rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be surcharges if you're aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know what to expect.
Can I drive in La Jolla with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the United States, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the car hire process. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you'll also need to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. 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: 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, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hired car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
