10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Bere Island

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle types and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendly options, utilize filters on Expedia to discover the ideal vehicle for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you can often lock in lower prices and enjoy a wider selection, especially during peak travel seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to maneuver in crowded areas. Mid-size vehicles strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicles—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify age requirements prior to booking.
  • 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 usually the best option. Others might offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in that case.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience may justify the extra cost.
  • Know your payment options: Most car rental companies accept only credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provide peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance is simple when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
