Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Santa Cruz?

What happens if I need to cancel my Santa Cruz car reservation?
We get that flexibility on the road is important. That's why many reservations give a full refund if you notify us a minimum of six hours prior to picking up the car. It's a good idea to read your hire policy though as there are some exclusions. If you can't find the answer there, have a look on our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Santa Cruz?
Powerful SUVs, nifty minis, luxury rides... Hop behind the wheel of almost any kind of vehicle you like! Economy is the most sought-after rental car category in Santa Cruz. Zippy, with superb fuel-efficiency and a breeze to park, these rides make touring busy city streets effortless. Maybe the best thing? They're easy on the budget. That means you'll have more cash to spend on other things, like discovering as much of this awesome destination as you can.
How do I find the best car hire deals in Santa Cruz with Expedia?
It's easy to find an incredible deal with Expedia. Just choose your wheels, select your dates and pick-up and drop-off locations, and compare offers from all the top providers. Save even more when you combine your Santa Cruz car hire with hotel or flight bookings.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Santa Cruz?
Anyone with a valid driver's license 18 and above can hire a car in Santa Cruz. While some providers may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 18, you can expect additional fees. Find out what ages the young renter fee applies to, and the cost, before booking your ride. Providers also restrict the categories of cars young drivers can hire. Higher age limits apply for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Cruz?
The essentials are your driver's license and a credit card in your name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. Make sure you check with your hire agency to avoid any issues.
What is the cheapest car hire in Santa Cruz?

Where can I find a Santa Cruz hire car if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Santa Cruz rental providers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, be aware that some will charge extra costs. It's good to know this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Each rental car company has its own rules for young drivers, so do your research.
