Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Santa Cruz?
The cheapest daily rate in Santa Cruz was based on prices within the last seven days. Check out our broad range of options, from mini vehicles to roll-in-style rides.
What happens if I need to cancel my Santa Cruz car reservation?
We appreciate that having a bit of wiggle room is important. That's why the majority of reservations offer a full refund if you notify us a minimum of six hours in advance of the pickup time. It's a good idea to go through your home agreement though as there are some exclusions. If you can't find the answer there, make your way to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Santa Cruz?
With their innovative design, quality interiors and powerful engines, it's easy to see why the premium category is the most popular in Santa Cruz. Whether you're travelling for business or a bit of fun, these rides will add some sophistication to your trip. Premium vehicles are often top-of-the-range models that have all the bells and whistles, but we've got plenty of economy and standard options too. Explore the city in any sort of car you like.
Where can I go on a road trip from Santa Cruz?
It's no secret that Santa Cruz is one of the leading destinations in Panaji. But you'll also find lots of other inspiring places to explore when you reserve your ride and get out on the open road. We've pulled together some tips to get your escape off to a winning start:

  • Home to sights galore, Kolhapur is about 145 kilometres from Santa Cruz. First pit stop? Make your way to Mahalakshmi Temple, one of this city's highlights.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Santa Cruz with Expedia?
Expedia makes it a breeze to compare rates, offers and home companies, and to check customer ratings. Combine your Santa Cruz car rental with hotel or flight bookings and you can save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Santa Cruz?
You need to be at least 18 to get behind the wheel of a rental car in Santa Cruz. Be aware that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car classes, such as economy and compact. Higher age limits usually apply for specialty and premium vehicles. Most companies will also charge a young renter fee. Read through the rules before clicking book and factor any surcharge into your travel budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Cruz?
Any home company you choose will require two things — your driver's license and credit card. If you'd like to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring with you to the home counter.
What side of the road do you drive on in Santa Cruz?
Unlike the States, motorists in Santa Cruz drive on the left. Having the driver's seat and some other controls on the opposite side can also take some getting used to. Take a few moments to familiarize yourself with the vehicle and its quirks before driving off.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Santa Cruz?
Click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip details and then secure your perfect ride. Whether you're stopping in Santa Cruz or road-tripping around, Expedia will help you find a long-term holiday home at an awesome rate.
Where can I find a Santa Cruz car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the holiday home car companies that are found in Santa Cruz. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25  bear in mind that extra costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before booking your holiday home.
