What types of cars can I rent in Gainesville?
Busy city streets and tight parking spaces are no hassle for an economy car — the most commonly booked home type in Gainesville. Grab the wheel of one of these and navigate traffic like a dream. Reliable, affordable and with excellent mileage, these small cars pack a punch. But Gainesville can be explored in almost any sort of home you like. Compacts, SUVs and full-size vehicles are some other options to choose from.
Where can I go on a road trip from Gainesville?
Gainesville is full of surprises, but don’t restrict yourself to just the one place. Rent some wheels and hit the open road to explore the surrounding area. These are some great options:

  • Make your way to Orlando for a fantastic sightseeing experience. Roughly 153 kilometres from Gainesville, it’s home to many inspiring sights like Universal Studios Florida.
  • Next stop? Consider Daytona Beach, which is around 137 kilometres away. Daytona International Speedway is one local hot spot you shouldn’t miss.

Why should I rent a Gainesville car with Expedia?

Check ratings and reviews, choose your favourite ride and compare offers from top providers. Expedia makes it easy to nab the best deal on your home wheels. Combine your Gainesville car rental with flight or hotel bookings and hit the road with even more savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Gainesville?
You need to be at least 21. But there are some age-related requirements to keep in mind before you lock in your Gainesville wheels. If you’re a young driver, most home providers will charge an extra fee and limit the sorts of cars you’re able to rent. This size of the surcharge, and which age range it applies to, varies between companies. Take a few moments to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Gainesville?
Most home companies will need these two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you want to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring with you to the home counter.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Gainesville?
Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip details and then lock in your perfect ride. Whether you’re staying put in Gainesville or venturing beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term home at an amazing rate.
Where can I find a Gainesville car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to investigate the age policy of the Gainesville holiday home suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under the age of 25 be aware that some will charge extra fees. It’s ideal to know about this in advance so you can plan your budget accordingly. Every holiday home car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so do your research.
Can I drive in Gainesville with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the U.S, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. 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 forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car rental. Please read the regulations before you book!
