Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your wheels.
Can I drive in Santa Maria with my U.S. Driver's license?
The great news is yes. The roads of Santa Maria are waiting for you and a valid U.S. License is all you need to explore them on four wheels. Before your departure date, it’s a good idea to apply for an International Driving Permit as another useful proof of identity.
