Tips for Cheap Car Rental

Book early — car rental prices rise as availability drops, especially in peak season
Compare off-airport pickup locations — often 20–30% cheaper than the terminal desk
Decline the rental company’s collision damage waiver — use a credit card with built-in CDW cover instead
Full-to-full fuel policy is always cheaper than prepaid fuel options
Check if your credit card includes rental car insurance — many premium cards do
Avoid additional driver fees where possible — they add up significantly on longer rentals
Mid-size cars often offer better value than economy — the price gap is often small

Frequently Asked Questions

What documents do I need to rent a car?

You need a valid driving licence (held for at least 1–2 years depending on country), a passport or national ID, and a credit card in your name for the deposit. Some countries require an International Driving Permit alongside your national licence.

What is included in the car rental price?

Base prices typically include the car, third-party liability insurance, and unlimited or capped mileage. Extras charged separately include collision damage waiver (CDW), theft protection, GPS, child seats, and additional drivers. Always check what’s included before comparing prices.

Can I rent a car with a debit card?

Most major rental companies require a credit card for the security deposit. Some accept debit cards but apply a larger hold (€500–1,500) and may restrict vehicle categories. Check the rental company’s policy before booking.

What is the minimum age to rent a car in Europe?

The minimum age is typically 21, though some companies rent to drivers aged 18–20 with a young driver surcharge. Drivers under 25 often pay an additional fee of €5–25/day. Age restrictions vary by country and vehicle category.
