10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Amari

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the best fit for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates change based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you are likely to obtain more favourable rates and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak travel periods.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars tend to be more affordable to rent and are easier to manoeuvre and park in crowded areas. Mid-size options strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age restrictions prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements may require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional fees. This is typically the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which can also be acceptable. Just remember to return the car empty in this case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs an extra charge, but the convenience may justify the cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Most car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind in case of unforeseen events during your trip. It's straightforward to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning extensive road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
