Cheap Budget Car Rental in Bogota

Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the vehicle's controls and features before driving off. Knowing how to operate essentials like headlights, wipers, and navigation systems can enhance safety and convenience.

Before leaving the rental location, inspect the car for any existing damage and ensure it’s documented. Take photos if necessary to avoid disputes when returning the vehicle.

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

When Renting a car, especially if you’re arriving in Bogota by flight, plan for extra time at pickup to accommodate any potential delays. Suppliers like Budget typically offer a grace period of 30-60 minutes. Providing your flight number can be helpful, but if you’re running late, be sure to call the supplier to inform them.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Bogota, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

If sharing driving responsibilities, check the policies regarding additional drivers. Some companies charge fees for each extra driver, while others may include it for free under certain conditions.

Being aware of gas stations ensures you won't run low during your travels.
