Car Hire in Sangwŏlgok-tong, Seoul, South Korea

Look up fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Refueling at a local station is often cheaper than paying the rental company's rates.

When selecting insurance, consider whether it includes free excess coverage. Free excess means you won’t pay a deductible in case of damage, providing additional peace of mind. Compare options to find the best fit for your needs.

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

At Sangwŏlgok-tong, car hires are billed on a daily basis. Renting for over 24 hours will incur a charge for an additional day, so be sure to plan your rental duration to avoid extra costs.

Be aware that some rental companies have age restrictions or may impose additional fees for drivers under 25. Always verify the age policy before booking.

Opt for car hire suppliers with high ratings, as these usually reflect better service, newer vehicles, and more convenient pickup locations. At Sangwŏlgok-tong, we have deals from suppliers. Among them, Be My Car boasts a rating of 4.8, Carmore has a rating of 4.7, and Hertz holds a rating of 4.5.

Prior to booking, read through the rental agreement thoroughly for any hidden fees, such as airport surcharges, additional driver costs, or penalties for late returns. Being informed is essential for budgeting.

Inquire whether the rental agency provides additional items such as GPS devices or child safety seats. These can enhance your trip but may incur extra costs, so plan ahead.
