10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Cuba

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for those sunny days, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the ideal option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you’re more likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and some vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most economical choice. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which can also be convenient. Just ensure you return the car empty in such cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience may justify the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind in case of unforeseen events during your trip. Adding car rental insurance is straightforward when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to dodge extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Cuba?
The minimum age to rent a vehicle in Cuba is 18. A young driver surcharge will apply, so check before booking and factor in possible additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the categories of vehicles available to young drivers. For instance, some providers will only rent out small to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may vary between companies, so be sure to read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to rent a car in Cuba?
Any rental company you choose will need these two things — a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your wheels.
What side of the road do you drive on in Cuba?
In Cuba and around Portugal, people drive on the right-hand side of the road. While this is the same as in the U.S, remember that there's likely to be different traffic rules.

Where can I find a Cuba car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Cuba rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years old, some will charge extra fees. It's handy to know about this in advance so you can budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
