Insurance and optional extras

Good to know

  • Age requirements for rentals can vary by provider (and even car type), so be clear on the rules before you book. Some suppliers in Bolivia may rent to younger drivers for an additional fee. If you fall outside the typical age range, just uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to unlock the right options.

  • Planning a trip with the kids? Car seat rules differ from place to place, and the best setup may depend on their weight, age and height. Be sure to add the right one to your Cochabamba car hire reservation.
