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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search based on vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economical car for cost savings, utilise the filters on Expedia to help identify the best option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary according to demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you are likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, especially 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 cars strike a good balance between price, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—might be unavailable. This may also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to making your booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require 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 beneficial option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which can also be convenient. Just ensure you return the car empty in such cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at the airport often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience may justify the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards as a form of payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help prevent unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind in case of unforeseen incidents during your trip. Adding car hire insurance is straightforward when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan to embark on long road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avert additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a vehicle.
