Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Boston?
The lowest daily rate for a rental car in Boston within the past seven days was AU$113. With the flexibility of having your own set of wheels, you can make your way to whichever sights are calling your name.
Can I rent a car from Pittsburgh Intl. Airport (PIT)?
Yes, and you have plenty of choice. After you touch down and collect your luggage, head for the rental car centre on the Baggage Claim level of the Landside Terminal. Here you can choose from fantastic companies like Dollar, National and Payless. If you’d like some more options, check out the deals from Hertz and Avis.
What happens if I need to cancel my Boston car reservation?
There are always times when plans get upended. That’s why we provide your money back on many prepaid reservations if you notify us six hours before picking up the car. Be sure to double-check the policy — sometimes it’s not available. Can’t find anything there? Our Customer Service Portal is always available to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Boston?
Bustling city streets and tight parking spaces are no match for an economy car — the most commonly booked home type in Boston. Grab the wheel of one of these and manoeuvre around traffic easily. Reliable, affordable and good on gas, these small rides pack a punch. But Boston can be explored in almost any type of home you like. Compact, mid-size and full-size vehicles are other options to consider.
Where can I go on a road trip from Boston?
After you’ve ticked off the well-known sights in Boston, there’s a lot more to discover in the region. Grab the keys to a rental car, stow your luggage in the trunk and hit the open road. These are some road trips we think you’ll enjoy:

  • Make your way to Canton for a fun-filled sightseeing adventure. Approximately 145 kilometres from Boston, it has many amazing attractions like Pro Football Hall of Fame.
  • Your next pit stop? Make it Geneva, which is around 193 kilometres away. Geneva State Park is one local hot spot you really shouldn’t miss.
  • Spend time in the great outdoors and inhale the fresh air at American Falls. You’ll find it roughly 322 kilometres from Boston.

Why should I rent a Boston car with Expedia?
Expedia is your one-stop shop for all your travel bookings, including rental cars. With suppliers to pick from in Boston, we’ll help you get the lowest price around. Whether you want to book a set of wheels, flights or a hotel, you’ll find exclusive offers and member prices on Expedia.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Boston with Expedia?
Check out reviews and ratings, choose your car class and compare offers from top brands. Expedia makes it a cinch to nab the best deal on your home wheels. Bundle your Boston car rental with flight or hotel bookings and drive away with even more in your wallet.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Boston?
You need to be at least 21 to sit in the driver’s seat of a home vehicle in Boston. Be aware that young drivers may be restricted to renting from a few car categories, such as compact and medium size. Higher age limits generally apply for specialty and luxury vehicles. Additionally, many companies will charge a young renter fee. Look up the rules before clicking the book button and factor any extra fees into your holiday budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Boston?
While booking conditions can differ between outlets, the two things you’ll need are your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. You don’t need to take out auto insurance with your home provider. However, proof of alternative coverage may be required.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Boston?
Whether you plan to stay in Boston or venture beyond, it’s easy to reserve a long-term holiday home with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll find you fantastic long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Boston car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to investigate the age policy of the Boston holiday home suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 years old, be mindful that some will charge additional fees. It’s ideal to know this ahead of time so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each holiday home car company has its own policies for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
Can I drive in Boston with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., be aware that you’ll also have to show your current 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 license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most states to be able 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 you travel 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 any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home.
