Golden State, or California, is endowed with an incredible coastline. It is home to many beautiful beaches, and marine adventures such as whale watching Dana Point tour, which are considered to be among the best in the United States.

In order to expect them and find the best ones, you need to rent a car. Most people, who have rented a car from Europcar LAX, characterize the company as a reliable provider of car rental services.

There are four conditions for renting a car in Los Angeles: the appropriate age, a passport with a valid visa, a driver’s license and a credit card.

As for driver’s age, car rental in the USA is possible from 21 years (from 18 – only in New York and Michigan). If you are over 25 – there are no restrictions for you. If you are from 21 to 24, then you have to pay Age Surcharge (the category of “young driver”). In addition, you cannot take some high-end cars.

Some tips about car rental

• The main types of insurance that are given by Europcar, Los Angeles, are DW (allows you to transfer all the risks of theft and damage to the rental office) and SLP (involves third-party liability insurance);
• It is better to take a GPS-navigator with you;
• Pay attention to the mileage limit;
• Before accepting the car, inspect the machine for damage (scratches, dents, cracks). If there are any, mark this in the contract. Note also the level of gasoline and return with the same one;
