9 tips to save on your Airport car rental near Skardu

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you need an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for extra luggage, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your trip.
  2. Book in advance for some of the best rates: It’s generally advisable to reserve your airport car rental as early as possible to secure lower rates and a wider selection. Booking 1-3 months ahead is optimal, especially during peak seasons.
  3. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might have limited availability. This can also impact renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements before finalizing your booking.
  4. Consider a budget-friendly car for savings: Smaller vehicles like economy or compact cars are generally more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals provide a good balance of cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most favorable option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling choices, which can also be convenient. Just ensure you return the car empty in that scenario.
  6. Know your payment options: Most rental companies require a credit card in the driver’s name for security deposits. Debit cards may not always be accepted.
  7. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides added peace of mind if something unexpected occurs during your trip. It’s easy to include car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  8. Check for unlimited mileage: If you plan to spend a lot of time on the road, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent extra costs on longer journeys.
  9. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver’s license is necessary to rent a car.

What insurance should I choose for my car rental from Skardu (KDU)?

Can I drive near Skardu (KDU) with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Pakistan, then you'll likely need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in most places to rent a car. If you're younger, 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 cars you can rent.
