Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in San Carlos?
The lowest daily rate for a rental car in San Carlos within the past seven days was NZ$3. With the flexibility of having your own set of wheels, you can easily cruise to whichever landmarks are calling your name.
What happens if I need to cancel my San Carlos car reservation?
We have good news! You should receive a total refund if you notify us a minimum of six hours ahead of the scheduled pickup time. Your itinerary contains information about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid bookings qualify for a refund though, so you may want to check the policy.
What types of cars can I rent in San Carlos?
Whatever meets your needs! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you're travelling with the family, or level up to a premium for a top-of-the-range ride. Or, choose an economy model — the most booked rental in San Carlos. Affordable and with great mileage, they're a good fit for singles, couples or anyone else who doesn't need a great deal of room. They're especially suited to exploring cities. Getting into tight parking spots will be a walk in the park!
Where can I go on a road trip from San Carlos?
San Carlos has plenty to keep you busy, but don't restrict yourself to one place. Grab a set of wheels and take to the road to see what's in the surrounding region. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • You'll find Bridge of the Americas and lots more interesting attractions in Arraijan. From San Carlos, it's approximately 64 kilometres away.
  • Next stop? It has to be Colon, which is around 97 kilometres away. Gatun Locks is one local draw card you won't want to miss.
  • Starfish Beach is about 274 kilometres from San Carlos and is one of the region's most scenic nature spots. Go for a walk around and enjoy the fresh air.

Why should I rent a San Carlos car with Expedia?
Score an amazing deal on your wheels with Expedia. Big or small, you're sure to find your dream ride from one of the suppliers in San Carlos. Our free travel rewards programme, One Key™, will help you get the most of your travel budget because our members always score our best prices. And if you want to save more, bundle your bookings into a holiday package. Add flights or hotels (or both) to your rental car reservation and get access to fantastic discounts!
How do I find the best car rental deals in San Carlos with Expedia?
Check customer ratings and reviews, choose your preferred ride and compare offers from leading brands. Expedia makes it easy to nab the best deal on your rental wheels. Bundle your San Carlos car rental with flight or hotel bookings and start your road trip with even more savings.
What do you need to rent a car in San Carlos?
Most rental companies will need these two things — a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd prefer to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.
What is the cheapest car rental in San Carlos?
According to prices found within the past seven days, the lowest daily rate for a cheap car rental in San Carlos was just NZ$3. The next lowest price was NZ$5 per day. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in San Carlos?
Whether you're planning to stop in San Carlos or journey beyond, it's easy to reserve a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll find you incredible long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a San Carlos car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a little homework. Managed to find a San Carlos supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Great! Just bear in mind that a surcharge often applies to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're looking at will have all the information you need.
