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

  • 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 enjoyment, or an economy car for budget-friendliness, utilize Expedia's filters to discover the best option for your trip.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's wise to book your car well ahead of your travel dates. By reserving early, you're more likely to secure lower rates and better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Generally, smaller vehicles are less expensive to rent and easier to maneuver in congested areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental companies enforce a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional fees. This is typically the most economical choice. Other options may include full-to-empty or prepaid fueling, which is acceptable as well; just ensure you return the car empty in that scenario.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports may incur a surcharge, but the convenience might make it worthwhile.
  • Know your payment options: Most car rental companies primarily accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind in case something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It's simple to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning long road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary for renting a car.
