10 tips to save on your car rental in and around El Tabo

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you’re looking for an SUV for extra space, a convertible for summer fun, or an economy car to save money, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your trip.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to reserve your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you’re likely to secure lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, especially during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically less expensive to rent and are easier to maneuver in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, 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 premium models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals 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 best choice. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which can also be convenient. Just remember to return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You may often incur a surcharge for picking up your rental car at airports, but the added convenience might make it worthwhile.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provide peace of mind if something unexpected happens during your trip. It’s easy to add car rental insurance when booking with Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, look for rental options 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 car.

Where can I find an El Tabo car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the El Tabo rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, be mindful that some will charge additional costs. It's ideal to know about this ahead of time so you can budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in El Tabo?
A comprehensive insurance plan is a smart idea for your El Tabo adventure. That's why we suggest choosing collision protection while reserving your car rental with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, vandalism and collision damage. Some destinations may require you to have a minimum level of liability insurance. This may already be included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and whether you need it.
Can I drive in El Tabo with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Chile, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your current license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:
  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most places to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before driving away. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with a rental car.
