REQUIREMENTS AND AGE LIMITS
All clients must be physically present during the preparation process of the documents and the car rental. Unfortunately, we do not allow the participation of a third party for car pick up. Our staff will have to personally provide our clients with the car keys.
INTERNATIONAL RENTERS
Cars are available to foreign citizens with a valid passport and driver’s license of their country. We can arrange insurance documents for foreign visitors who are planning on renting for more than two days. Please note that foreign visitors who do not have the insurance documents, would have to make a higher security deposit of $ 1,000 – $25,000, depending on the vehicle.
SECURITY DEPOSIT
Every renter must leave a security deposit in the form of cash or credit card. In case of any damages when returning the vehicle, an extra charge will apply from the security deposit. The amount of the deposit is going to vary depending on the value of the rented vehicle and its type of insurance documents. The approximate price is $ 1,000 – $3,000.
This deposit is fully refundable upon completion of the rental period. If you are using Visa, MasterCard or Discover Card, the deposit is deducted from the card, and you will be issued a full refund at the rental termination if no additional charges /damages were incurred.
WEATHER
We cannot provide you with the refund or change the date of the rental during unexpected weather conditions.
