So far the cheapest I found is Toyota Rent a car -

$456.42/Week +tax (not available) Fremont Toyota

Alamo : Car TypeStandard Van Sienna Le or Similar

Unlimited Mileage

Rate Information 1 Week @ $889.90/week
1 Extra Day @ $148.32/day$1,038.22Estimated Taxes and Fees $96.04Total Price=$1,134.26

Please help.



FYI - minivans do not come with 8 seats. You will need a full size van that specifically states it has 8 seats.


Actually there is such a thing as an 8 seater. They are not available everywhere tho.
Nor will they be cheap.

OP might want to consider two smaller cars.


Incorrect.

Toyota Siennas are listed (Alamo) as 8 passenger. Some rental companies (including Budget) offer a "full-size van" option, listed as 12-passenger. Both are listed as available for the rental period, but are very expensive ($8xx-$12xx).

I agree with the suggestion to consider two vehicles. You could rent two small cars and probably save quite a bit.

This topic is a good reminder that rental car rates generally do not drop as you get closer to your rental dates--IMHO you almost always get the best rates several weeks/months in advance, other than periodic "last-minute specials."

Skip the car and take Amtrak. Use cabs and local mass transit to get around.
