Where can I find a Riverside car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether you can rent a car under the age of 25 in Riverside often depends on the holiday home company you choose. Some businesses apply a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years of age, however others may not have any extra fees for this age range. Be sure to go through the terms and conditions of your chosen car company to avoid excessive charges when collecting your car.
Can I drive in Riverside with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, note that you’ll also need to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle needs to 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’ll need to be 25 in many states to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and 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 so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
