Can I drive in San Diego with my U.S. Driver's license?
No, so we advise that you get an International Driving Permit. If you plan to drive in San Diego, you'll need to carry it alongside your U.S. License. Getting this permit is easy and should be done before your departure date.

Where can I find a San Diego car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental car companies that operate in San Diego. They often have different age policies. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, take note that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before picking up your vehicle.
