What do you need to rent a car in Santa Cruz?
Your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? In that case, you're also likely to need proof of other coverage. Requirements may differ between suppliers, so read your policy thoroughly.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Santa Cruz?
You can rent a car for a month or even longer in Santa Cruz, so go on and extend your hard-earned holiday! Just enter your trip dates into our long-term car rental deals page and reserve your perfect ride.
Where can I find a Santa Cruz car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Santa Cruz rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, some will charge additional fees. It's best to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
