How old do you have to be to rent a car in El Dorado?
El Dorado rules state drivers must be at least 21 before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and stricter rental conditions. Many outlets impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the normal car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in El Dorado?
Before you can hop behind the wheel in El Dorado, you'll need a driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. If you choose not to take out the rental company's insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of your own coverage. Rules may vary, so understand the policy terms and conditions before you choose a rental company.

Where can I find an El Dorado car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some El Dorado outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so be prepared to do some research. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some places will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
