What types of cars can I rent in Salem?
Dart around in a mini, style it up in a premium ride or choose something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to beat a compact vehicle — the most commonly booked rental type in Salem. They're a joy to park and handle, fuel-efficient and an excellent idea if you're visiting bustling cities. A step up from economy, you can expect a little more comfort and room while still getting a wonderful deal.
Where can I go on a road trip from Salem?
Salem is full of fun adventures, but don't limit yourself to just the one place. Organise a set of wheels and head off to discover what else awaits in the wider region. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • You'll find Mark Twain House & Museum and loads of other amazing attractions in Hartford. From Salem, it's roughly 161 kilometres away.
  • Next stop? Albany, which is around 64 kilometres away. The Egg is one local draw card you won't want to miss.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Salem?
If you're 21 and above, you can rent a car in Salem. Keep in mind that rental outlets will charge young drivers an additional fee, which helps cover the higher accident risk involved. Also, young drivers are usually restricted from renting larger or luxury models of cars. Check the terms and conditions before you book so there are no surprises when you collect the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Salem?
Two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. Make sure you check with your rental agency to avoid any problems.

Where can I find a Salem car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to book a rental in Salem, check the policies of the car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be additional costs if you're aged between 21 and 24. To escape any unwanted surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know if any extra charges apply to you.
