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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for those summer drives, or an economy car to keep costs down, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the perfect option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary depending on demand, so it's advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you are more likely to benefit from lower prices and greater availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals offer a good compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age restrictions prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, which requires you to return the vehicle 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 arrangements, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in such cases.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: There is often a surcharge for collecting your rental car at 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 any unforeseen events arise during your trip. It’s straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you are planning long road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a vehicle.
