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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting the appropriate vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for warm summer days, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to identify the best option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary with demand, so it is advisable to reserve your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you are likely to secure more favourable 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 congested urban areas. Mid-size cars offer a good compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle classes—such as SUVs or luxury models—may not be available. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most economical choice. Other options may include full-to-empty or prepaid fuel policies, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in this case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You will often incur a surcharge when collecting your rental car at airports, but the added convenience may justify the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies accept only credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind in the event of unforeseen circumstances during your trip. It is straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you are planning extensive road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's licence is necessary to rent a car.
