10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Saint-Nazaire

  • 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 summer outings, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the ideal match for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it is wise to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you are likely to obtain more favourable rates and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in congested areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 years may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—may not be available. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure that you return the car empty in this instance.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: You may often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car from airports, but the convenience might 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 added peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It’s straightforward to add car hire insurance while booking with Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning lengthy road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to steer clear of extra costs.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
