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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV to accommodate more passengers, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, utilize the filters on Expedia to identify the best option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it’s wise to reserve your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you’re more likely to secure lower rates and have a wider selection, especially during peak travel periods.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically more affordable to rent and simpler to park in busy areas. Mid-size rentals offer a balanced combination of cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 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 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental companies mandate a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This option is usually the most advantageous. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling alternatives, which are also acceptable; just remember to return the car 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 convenience may justify the additional cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Most car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provide peace of mind in case something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It’s easy to add car rental insurance when making your reservation with Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, seek rentals that offer 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.

Can I drive in Garsfontein with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in South Africa, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. Also consider that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in many countries 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 the types of vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car.
