Frequently asked questions

How do I get a Rio De Janeiro Hertz car rental at a great price?

CarRentals.com strives to get you the lowest rates, whether you book. But booking well ahead of your visit can help you save even more. Be sure to keep the car under one driver's name and check the mileage policy to avoid any surprise fees.

Do I need to bring anything special when I pick up my vehicle in Rio De Janeiro?

You will need to carry with you your driver's permit and a credit card in your name.

What's the minimum age to rent a car in Rio De Janeiro?

Hertz's minimum age to rent a car in Rio De Janeiro is 19. Make sure to review Hertz's policy, as there could be additional fees if you are under 25 in most cases or for higher category cars in particular.

Is there a particular car I should get for my trip to Rio De Janeiro?

That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what activities you want to do in Rio De Janeiro. Compact or economy cars are great for short drives and are easier to park. If you are traveling with colleagues or family, then a sedan or SUV will have enough room for all of you and offer a more comfortable ride on longer commutes. Those looking for a bit of extravagance on their getaway can choose a higher-end car model like a Cadillac or Audi or similar.

Does Brazil require car insurance?

In Brazil you do need to have insurance before you rent. Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa and MasterCard, provide some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For instance, they may not cover your rental car if you book a larger or luxury vehicle. Make sure to check credit card company's policy before you decide. Otherwise, as a U.S. citizen, you can also add on Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

Do I need to pay a deposit when I book my Hertz car rental?

Hertz does require a deposit when you book your rental. Hertz will block the deposit on your credit once you book your car for your trip. Please be aware that the deposit can vary greatly based on the make and model of the rental.

Do I have to return my Hertz rental with a full tank?

We suggest a full tank policy. You should get into your car with a full tank, and you will want to refuel up to the amount you picked the car up with. To avoid any added expenses, it is best to find a filling station before you return the car to Hertz. Stations near or around airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Why should I get unlimited miles?

Rio De Janeiro definitely has its charms, but you may want to hit the road after you've checked off all the activities in Rio De Janeiro.

Does Hertz offer one-way rentals in Rio De Janeiro?

Hertz typically offers one-way rentals. You may find it easier to return your vehicle at another location. Be aware there may be an additional fee when you opt for one-way.
