10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Buena Vista

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle types and specific features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for extra room, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, utilize the filters on Expedia to help you discover the perfect vehicle for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates vary based on demand, so it's advisable to reserve your car well ahead of your trip. Booking early often secures better rates and greater availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles typically have lower rental costs and are easier to navigate and park in crowded areas. Mid-size options strike a good balance between price, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify age requirements before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require 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 economical choice. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which can also be convenient. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at the airport often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience might make it worthwhile.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies require credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Rental car insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind in case something unforeseen occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance is straightforward when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning long road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a vehicle.
