This information allows us to offer you more accurate rates.
In most countries, the minimum age required to hire a vehicle is 25.
For bookings with pick-up outside your country of residence, it is mandatory to present the original physical Driver’s License, valid and within the expiration date, issued in your country of origin.
Some rental companies and government authorities may require, in addition to the Driver’s License, the International Driving Permit, which is mandatory for: Austria, Bulgaria, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Romania, Switzerland, and Ukraine and highly recommended for any other country not listed above, especially where the alphabet used is different from the Roman one (for example: Czech Republic, Middle Eastern and Asian countries).
Obtaining and presenting the International Driving Permit is the sole responsibility of the driver. If the rental company agrees to rent the vehicle without presenting the International Driving Permit, restrictions or additional fees may apply. To ensure a smooth driving experience abroad, it is always recommended to carry a valid Driver’s License and the physical International Driving Permit.
Each driver must present a valid and original photo ID or passport.
The renter must present a personal credit card, valid in the country of pick-up with enough funds to put a hold for a security deposit. Third-party credit cards will not be accepted. The car rental company is solely responsible for approving the provided credit card. Online prepayment does not exempt the renter from providing a valid international credit card during vehicle pick-up. The rental company will place a hold in the amount of the security deposit and, when applicable, any additional local fees not covered in the prepaid voucher on the card provided at the rental location.
You must present a printout of the Booking Confirmation Voucher at the rental location. This document officially confirms all agreed upon services, payment conditions, rates, discounts, as well as vehicle availability within the group selected.
Car rental companies reserve the right to refuse service to underage or unlicensed drivers, those with poor credit history or individuals otherwise considered liabilities by the rental company.
Tips for Travelers Visiting Philadelphia
When you're flying into Philadelphia International Airport (PHL), consider pre-booking a rental car. When you arrive, you can simply head to the car rental location and pick up your vehicle. Driving a car of your own is much more convenient than catching a SEPTA train or bus, even when you account for city traffic. You're literally in the driver's seat, so you can travel to all of the city's historic sights on your own terms.
Picking Up Your Rental Car at Philadelphia International Airport (PHL)
When you arrive at the airport, collect your luggage and head to the Ground Transportation Information desks. Here, you will find directions to the appropriate car rental company. Most companies are located in Baggage Claims in A-East, B/C or D/E. The airport offers rental car services from a number of companies for you to choose from.
Driving in Philadelphia
Once you've picked up your rental car, it's time to drive to your destination. If you're heading to the city center, the drive will take approximately 15 minutes, depending on traffic. From the airport, head east on I-95 North. After you drive about 10 miles, you'll start seeing exits into the city. If there's traffic on I-95, you can take I-76 West into the city instead.
Getaways Outside of Philadelphia
After you've toured the city, hop in your car and head to one of the charming areas outside of Philadelphia. The Poconos are located two and a half hours away by car, and they're home to natural wonders like the Pocono Mountains. History buffs may enjoy taking a trip to Gettysburg, also located about two hours away from the city.
