Good to know
Age requirements for rentals vary by company and even car type, so know the rules before you book. Some providers in Argentina may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee. If you fall outside the typical age range, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to explore your options.
Planning a trip with the kids? Car seat rules vary from one location to another, and the correct setup may depend on their weight, height and age. Confirm whether you need to add one to your Neuquen car rental reservation.
Come prepared to avoid delays at pick-up. You'll typically need your physical driver's license (no copies) plus another photo ID. Bring a credit card with enough balance for the deposit too. If anything extra is required, you'll find it in your booking.
If you haven't driven before in Argentina, keep in mind that traffic here keeps to the right side of the road.
