They're a cinch to handle and park, fuel-efficient and a wise idea if you're road-tripping around cities. A step up from economy, you can expect slightly more comfort and room at a price that won't hurt your budget.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Columbia?
Columbia requires drivers to be at least 21 to be able to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and tighter rental conditions. Most suppliers impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard car rental rate. This covers the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like compact and mid-size) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Columbia?
Generally, all that's required is a current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when picking up your car. You may also need your own proof of coverage if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Rules often differ between rental providers, so remember to read the fine print.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Columbia?
Expedia makes it a breeze to score an affordable long-term rental in Columbia. Simply visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and compare your options.
Where can I find a Columbia car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a vehicle if you're under 25 years in Columbia often depends on the rental supplier you choose. Some places have a surcharge for drivers between 21 and 24 years old, but others may not apply any extra fees for this age group. It'd be wise to go through the terms and conditions of your prospective rental company to escape any surprise charges when collecting your car.
