Top Tips for Renting a Van in Santa Clara
- Santa Clara van rentals offer enhanced flexibility and convenience, allowing you to explore the city and its surroundings at your own pace. Due to the large carrying capacity of vans, they can comfortably accommodate larger groups or cargo. Unlike public buses or taxis, a rental van offers privacy, comfort, and cost-effective options for families or groups. With a van, you can visit attractions like the picturesque Santa Clara University campus and the bustling Santana Row shopping district while enjoying the freedom to tailor your itinerary to your preferences.
- When renting a van at San Jose International Airport (SJC) in Santa Clara, CA, be aware that rental car facilities are conveniently located at the airport's Consolidated Rental Car Center. It's accessible via shuttle buses from Terminal B. Ensure you have a valid driver's license, credit card, and reservation details. Rental options, policies, and pricing may vary among agencies, so compare offerings beforehand. If using other airports, like San Francisco International (SFO), rental car services are available at each terminal, requiring a valid driver's license and credit card for a smooth rental experience.

The permitted Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) in Santa Clara, as in all of California, is 0.08%, but it's advisable to avoid any alcohol consumption when operating a vehicle to ensure safety and legal compliance.

Adverse weather conditions, typically in December through March, can affect driving with occasional rain, potentially impacting road safety.

Pros:
Definitely none. Vehicle was not at the agreed location confirmation.Cons:
Besides vehicle being in the wrong location confirmed, the agent tried to give me a standard truck instead of a premium. I rent often with Hertz or Enterprise primarily and am usually satisfied. I chose not to take the rental this time. VERY DISAPPOINTED !!! Waste of my time...9.6 Wonderful

Jan 2020
Pros:
The vehicle performed nicely throughout the trip.Cons:
Both pick up and drop off were less than stellar experiences. In pick up, I felt jerked around a bit when they offered me an upgrade with unsuitable price increases. Also, when I picked up the vehicle, it had a distinct smell of cigarettes which I find quite distasteful. Fortunately, the smell went away after driving it for a few hours. More problematic however was that the gas tank was not full. This was during the time when PG&E was shutting down power throughout CA. I felt lucky to make it out of the state without running out of gas and finding myself stuck because stations wouldn't be able to use their pumps. On drop off, the town of Everett was completely torn up with construction. It would have been nice if Hertz had provided me with instructions in advance for how to get to the rental office. Also, the agent tried a joke which completely backfired. We worked through it, but it was not fun.3.6 Poor
