Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Costa Rica car reservation?
We appreciate that flexibility on the road is important. That's why many rentals offer a full refund if you let us know a minimum of six hours ahead of the scheduled collection time. You may want to go through the policy though because there are some exemptions. If you can't see any details there, make your way to our Customer Service Portal.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Costa Rica with Expedia?
Check reviews and ratings, choose your car type and compare offers from the most popular brands. Expedia makes it easy to pick up the best deal on your rental wheels. Combine your Costa Rica car rental with flight or hotel bookings and cruise off with even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Costa Rica?
At least 21. But there are some age-related requirements to be aware of before you reserve your Costa Rica wheels. If you're a younger motorist, most rental providers will charge an additional daily fee and limit the types of vehicles you're able to rent. The amount of the surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between outlets. Take the time to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Costa Rica?
Your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of your own coverage. Requirements can differ between providers, so be sure to read through your policy.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Costa Rica?
Whether you plan to hang around Costa Rica or explore what's beyond, it's easy to book a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip dates and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll find you affordable long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Costa Rica car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Costa Rica rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years old, be mindful that some will charge additional fees. It's best to know about this before collecting the vehicle so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so it's smart to do your research.
