What types of cars can I rent in Boston?
Keep costs low with an economy, 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 Boston. They're easy to park and handle, fuel-efficient and a good idea if you're road-tripping around busy cities. A step up from economy, you can expect a little more room and comfort while still getting a terrific deal.

There's loads to do in Boston, but head further afield and you'll find even more magic. Arrange a set of wheels and you can cruise around the greater area at your leisure. Add these awesome places to your itinerary:
  • Make your way to Lexington for a fantastic sightseeing adventure. Roughly 105 kilometres from Boston, it's home to loads of great attractions like Keeneland Racing Course.
  • Your next stop? It has to be Louisville, which is around 56 kilometres away. Churchill Downs is one local draw card you won't want to miss.

Always enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any extra fees or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Boston?
Generally, all that's required is a current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when picking up the keys to your car. Proof of coverage may also be required if you'd like to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements may differ between providers, so remember to check in advance.

Where can I find a Boston car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so you'll have to do a bit of shopping around. Found a Boston outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? Great!
