10 tips to save on your Muttrah car hire

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendliness, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to reserve your car well in advance of your trip. By booking early, you’re more likely to secure lower prices and enjoy a wider selection, especially during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles typically come with lower rental costs and are easier to maneuver in crowded areas. Mid-size cars offer a balanced choice between affordability, 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 also applies to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements before you make a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid extra fees. This is typically the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling alternatives, which are acceptable as well; just ensure you return the car with an empty tank in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience might justify the 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. Adding car rental insurance is a straightforward process when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver’s license is necessary to rent a vehicle.
