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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for added space, a convertible for the summer months, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to help you identify the best option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices vary depending on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your vehicle well in advance of your trip. By booking early, you are more likely to access lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles typically come at a lower rental cost and are easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size cars strike a good balance between affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 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 the age of 70. Always verify the age restrictions prior to making a booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements may stipulate a full-to-full fuel policy, which requires you to return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most advantageous option. Others might offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which are acceptable as well—just ensure you return the vehicle empty in that case.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but this may be worthwhile for the added convenience.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payments.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avert unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind in the event of any unforeseen incidents during your trip. It is straightforward to add car hire insurance when making a booking with Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you intend to embark on long road trips, seek 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 car.
