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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the 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 are likely to access lower rates and enjoy 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 park in busy urban 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 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.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements 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 favourable option. Other policies may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well; just ensure you return the vehicle empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: There is often an extra fee for collecting your rental car from airports, though this might be worthwhile for the added convenience it provides.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies only accept credit cards as a form of payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unexpected costs and offers peace of mind should something unforeseen occur during your trip. Adding car hire insurance when booking through Expedia is a straightforward process.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on embarking on long road trips, seek out rentals that provide 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.
