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

  1. 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 outings, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, utilise filters on Expedia to discover the best option 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 car well in advance of your trip. By booking early, you’re likely to obtain lower rates and have a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable 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 the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—may not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. 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 vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most favourable option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure that you return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You will often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, though it may be worthwhile for the added convenience.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire providers exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It’s straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re 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 license is essential for renting a car.

Can I drive in Gardiner with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the United States, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hire cars in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the hire car company before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car hire. Please read the regulations before you book!
