10 tips to save on your Nihonbashi car hire

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle types and desired features. Whether you need an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer adventures, or an economical 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 advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you’re more likely to lock in lower rates and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles typically cost less to rent and are easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, 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 before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, which requires you to return the car with a full tank to avoid extra fees. This is generally the most economical option. Other policies may include full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are acceptable as well; just remember to return the car empty in those cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports usually incurs a surcharge, but the convenience it offers may justify the additional cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Most car rental companies primarily 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 simple to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, look for rental options that include unlimited mileage to bypass any extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
