Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Santiago car reservation?
We know that having a bit of wiggle room is important. That's why most bookings provide a full refund if you let us know at least six hours in advance of the pickup time. It's a good idea to scan the rental policy though because there are some exceptions. If you can't see any details there, head over to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Santiago?
Premium, full-size, intermediate ... It's up to you! However, compact models are the most popular in Santiago. If you'd like something reasonably priced and small, but not too small, this rental car category is the ideal choice. Driving around bustling streets will be a cinch in one of these. Compact vehicles are slightly more spacious compared to economy models and are suited to solo travellers, couples and families on a budget.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Santiago with Expedia?
Getting an awesome deal on your Santiago rental car is a cinch with Expedia. Choose your preferred ride, add some details and compare prices across major suppliers. Why not add hotels and flights to your booking? You'll get access to terrific discounts when you combine your bookings into a package.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Santiago?
You'll need to be 21 and over to slide behind the wheel of a rental car in Santiago. Be aware that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car classes, such as economy and compact. Higher age limits generally apply for larger vehicles like premium SUVs. Additionally, many companies will charge an additional fee for young renters. Read through the rules carefully before hitting the book button and factor any surcharge into your holiday budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Santiago?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? In that case, you may also require proof of your own coverage. Requirements may differ between rental suppliers, so be sure to read through your policy.
Can I drive in Santiago with my U.S. Driver's license?
Many countries require an International Driving Permit to drive legally, so arrange one if you plan to hit the road in Santiago. This permit must be carried with your U.S. License. We highly recommend obtaining this permit well ahead of your departure date.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Santiago?
Yes, which means you won't need to rebook a rental car in the middle of your holiday. Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and reserve a set of wheels that's all yours for the length of your escape.
Where can I find a Santiago car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a car if you are under 25 years old in Santiago often depends on the rental provider you choose. Some places apply a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years of age, yet other companies may not apply any extra fees for this age range. It'd be good to read the terms and conditions of your selected car rental dealer to escape excessive charges when picking up your keys.
