How old do you have to be to rent a car in Downtown Boston?
Drivers with a valid licence aged 21 and above can rent a vehicle in Downtown Boston. While some companies may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, expect an extra fee.

Higher age limits apply for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Downtown Boston?
You'll generally require a current driver's licence and credit card in your name when picking up the keys to your car.

Where can I find a Downtown Boston car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Downtown Boston rental providers you're considering. If you're under the age of 25, some outlets will charge additional costs. It's best to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can have the funds ready. Each rental car company has its own rules for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
