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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and specific features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for ample space, a convertible for warm weather, or an economy car for budget-friendly options, utilise the filters on Expedia to help you discover the ideal vehicle for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary significantly based on demand, so it's advisable to reserve your car well before your trip. By booking early, you are more likely to secure lower rates and enjoy greater availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Generally, smaller cars are more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. 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 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, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most advantageous option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling alternatives, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in this scenario.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You may often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but the added convenience could be worth the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies only accept credit cards for payments.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides added peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It's straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking with Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extended 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.
