Where can I find a Downtown Madison car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Downtown Madison, we recommend reading the policies of the holiday home companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be additional costs if you’re between 21 and 24 years old. To escape any surprises on pickup, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
Can I drive in Downtown Madison with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the United States, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, know that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your 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 must be at least 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home. Please read the details before booking!
