What types of cars can I rent in Boston?
The majority of visitors rent economy cars in Boston. Motorists love them because they’re fuel-efficient and affordable. Plus, their smaller size makes them ideal for getting around cities, where streets are crowded and parking can be tough. But your options don’t end there. SUVs, full-size cars and compacts can be booked too. Whether you’re sticking around Boston or headed beyond, we’ll have a set of wheels that suits your style.
Where can I go on a road trip from Boston?
Boston is full of adventures, but don’t restrict yourself to just one place. Grab a set of wheels and hit the open road to see what else awaits in the wider region. Here are some places to consider:

  • New Haven is around 193 kilometres from Boston. Well-known tourist attractions like Yale University deserve a place on your must-see list while you’re in town.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Boston?
Drivers with a valid license aged 21 and over can rent a vehicle in Boston. 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 cost, before booking. Companies also restrict the types of cars available to young drivers. Higher age limits apply for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Boston?
While requirements can differ between rental car outlets in Boston, the two key things you’ll need are your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. You don’t need to take out the company’s insurance plan. However, proof of alternative coverage may be necessary.

Where can I find a Boston car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between holiday home companies, so be prepared to do a bit of homework. Managed to find a Boston supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Great news! Just keep in mind that some companies charge additional fees to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each holiday home car you’re interested in should have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Boston with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars 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 places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your rental car. Please read the details before booking!
