10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Engelberg

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for extra room, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economy car for cost savings, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the best fit for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates vary with demand, so it's advisable to reserve your car well ahead of your travel date. By booking early, you are more likely to secure lower prices and have access to a wider selection, especially during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to park 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 categories—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age restrictions before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental companies require a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which can be acceptable as well; just ensure that you return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: There is often an additional fee for picking up your rental car at airports, but the convenience may justify the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind in case of unforeseen events during your trip. It's straightforward to add car rental insurance when you book through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan to take long road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent extra costs.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a vehicle.
