10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Las Arenas

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilize filters on Expedia to discover the ideal match 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 in advance, you are more likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars typically cost less to rent and are easier to maneuver and park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a nice balance between affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers younger than 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years of age. Always verify the age restrictions before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental companies require a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most favorable option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel choices, which are acceptable as well; just ensure you return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: There is often an additional fee for picking up your rental car at airports, but the convenience may make it worthwhile.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental agencies exclusively accept credit cards as a form of 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 simple process when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
