This will depend on the rental car companies that are found in Athens. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found an outlet that does cater to drivers under the age of 25 bear in mind that additional fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before picking up the keys to your vehicle.

If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the United States, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. 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 valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

• Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
• Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. Please read the details before booking!
