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

Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for extra space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the perfect fit for your journey.
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 better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars typically cost less to rent and are easier to maneuver and park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
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 available. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age restrictions before making a reservation.
Check fuel policies: Some rental companies require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid extra fees. This is usually the most economical option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refueling options, which can be advantageous as well. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in that scenario.
Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at the airport often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience might make it worthwhile.
Know your payment options: Many car rental agencies primarily accept credit cards for payment.
Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It’s easy to add insurance when booking through Expedia.
Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning on long road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
