What do you need to rent a car in Santa Barbara?
Any rental company you select will ask for these two things — a current driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you choose to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your car.

Where can I find a Santa Barbara car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Santa Barbara outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll have to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
