How old do you have to be to rent a car in Matara?
You have to be at least 21. But there are some age-related restrictions to be aware of before you book your wheels in Matara.

The amount of the surcharge, and which age range it applies to, varies between providers. Take a few moments to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Matara?
While requirements can differ between car rental outlets, generally the essentials are a current driver's licence and a credit card. You don't need to take out the company's auto insurance. However, proof of your own coverage may be necessary.
What side of the road do you drive on in Matara?
Traffic drives on the right and passes on the left in Peru — the same as in the U.S. Road-tripping around Matara won't be exactly the same as home, though. You'll want to brush up on the local traffic rules.

Where can I find a Matara car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a vehicle if you're under 25 years in Matara often depends on the rental provider you select.

Be sure to go through the terms and conditions of your chosen car company to escape excessive charges at the rental desk.
