10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Ama

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economical car for budget-friendliness, utilise filters on Expedia to assist you in locating the best option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates vary according to demand, so it's advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By reserving in advance, you're likely to obtain lower prices and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to hire and easier to park in busy areas. Mid-size rentals offer a balanced combination of cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age restrictions before making a reservation.
  • 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 generally the most favourable option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling alternatives, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in such cases.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: A surcharge is often applicable for collecting your rental car from airports, but the convenience may justify the extra cost.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind should the unexpected occur during your trip. It's straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to hire a car.
