 | | Renting a Car in San Jose: Really, Who Does Not Drive in Northern California? | | | There is ample opportunity to rent a car at San Jose International Airport, where many of the big-name car hire companies have offices and lots. During San Jose’s busy convention times, it is important to reserve your rental vehicle well in advance. Some of the agencies at the airport are Hertz, Enterprise, Thrifty, and Alamo. Hertz has additional offices at a number of hotels in the downtown area, including the Holiday Inn on First Street and the Fairmont Hotel on Market Street.
Foreign visitors wishing to rent a car in San Jose should make sure they have all of the proper legal documents, including a translated copy of their driver’s license from their home country. And as always, if you are under 25 years of age and attempting to rent a car, the cost of the insurance will be significantly higher, so plan accordingly. Remember to ask whether there is a discount if you are an AAA member. | | | |  | | |
