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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you need an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer fun, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, utilize filters on Expedia to find the perfect match for your needs.
  2. 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. Booking in advance often results in lower prices and better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles typically cost less to rent and are easier to maneuver and park in crowded areas. Mid-size options strike a good balance between affordability, 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 70 years old. Always verify age restrictions before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements mandate a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most economical choice. Other options may include full-to-empty or prepaid fuel, which are also acceptable, but ensure the car is returned empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at the airport often incurs a surcharge; however, 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 provides peace of mind in case something goes wrong during your trip. Adding car rental insurance when booking through Expedia is straightforward.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning lengthy road trips, look for rental options that offer unlimited mileage to prevent extra fees.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.

Just keep in mind that some companies charge extra fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in should have all the details you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Ilulissat?
Add collision protection while booking your Ilulissat rental car with Expedia. This protects your ride against accident damage, theft and vandalism throughout your vacation. Offering up to $35,000 in primary coverage and 24-hour emergency assistance, you can rest easy knowing you're covered for many mishaps. Simply opt in to this plan during the checkout process.
Can I drive in Ilulissat with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Greenland, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your current license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally 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 might 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 available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with your rental car.
