San Sebastian Car Rental Guide

Essential tips for American drivers renting cars in Spain's Basque Country

Do I need an International Driving Permit (IDP) with my US license in Spain?
Yes, strongly recommended. While Spain technically accepts US licenses for tourist visits up to 6 months, most rental companies require an IDP at pickup. It costs around $20 from AAA and takes minutes to obtain. Without it, you risk being denied your rental or facing issues during traffic stops. Carry both your original US license and IDP at all times.
Can I drive my rental car from San Sebastian into France?
Yes, but notify your rental company in advance. San Sebastian is only 12 miles from the French border, making day trips to Biarritz or Bayonne tempting. Most major companies (Hertz, Avis, Europcar) allow cross-border travel within Western Europe, but you must declare it at booking. Budget and smaller local companies may restrict this or charge extra fees.
How difficult is parking in San Sebastian's Old Town (Parte Vieja)?
Extremely challenging—avoid driving into the Old Town entirely. Streets are narrow, one-way, and locals park aggressively. Instead, use public parking garages like Parking Okendo or Parking Boulevard (€15-25/day). The city center is very walkable, and the old town is best explored on foot. Free street parking exists in residential areas like Gros, but spaces fill quickly.
Will I be charged a 'young driver fee' if I'm under 25?
Yes, expect €10-25 per day if you're 21-24 years old. The minimum rental age in Spain is typically 21, with some companies requiring 23+ for larger vehicles. Drivers under 21 are rarely allowed to rent. The surcharge is mandatory and added automatically—factor it into your budget. Drivers 25+ avoid this fee entirely.
What's the fuel policy and are gas stations easy to find?
Most rentals use a full-to-full policy—return the car with a full tank or face steep refueling charges (often €2+/liter plus service fees). Gas stations are plentiful in San Sebastian, but many close on Sundays and late at night. The Repsol station near the airport and 24-hour stations along A-15 highway are reliable options. Save your final fuel receipt as proof.
