10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Ilha Grande

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting specific vehicle types and features. Whether you require an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, filters on Expedia can assist you in finding the perfect car for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your travel dates. By booking in advance, you are likely to obtain lower rates and better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically less expensive to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 years may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—may not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify age requirements before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most favourable option. Other policies may include full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are also acceptable—just ensure you return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but it may be worth the extra cost for the added convenience.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help prevent unnecessary expenses and provide you with peace of mind in case of unexpected incidents during your trip. Adding car rental insurance is simple when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning extensive road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is a requirement to rent a car.
