Car Hire in Gamlebyen, Oslo, Norway

Take time to carefully read the rental agreement. Being informed about the terms will help you avoid hidden fees and ensure a smooth rental process.

To secure the best rates, book your car hire at least 4 weeks in advance. Generally, December offers the lowest prices for car hires in Gamlebyen.

Select a pickup location that's convenient for you. Many rental firms have desks at airports for quick access, while others might require a shuttle service.

Familiarize yourself with the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy requires returning the vehicle with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' requires it to be returned at the same fuel level. Full-to-Full is generally more economical.

When renting a car, especially after travelling by train, allocate extra time for pickup to account for possible delays. Most car hire companies offer a 30-60 minute grace period. Sharing your train number can be helpful, but if you're running late, be sure to contact the car hire provider to let them know.

If you have a specific vehicle model in mind, opt for rentals that assure the car type. This prevents surprises at pickup if a different vehicle is provided.

Many car hire deals at Gamlebyen require a credit card for the deposit. If you only have a debit card, use our website's filter to find options that accommodate it or consider getting a credit card. Make sure the main driver’s card is used to prevent any extra charges.

Before renting a car, check if your personal car insurance covers rental losses. Many personal auto insurance policies and credit cards offer coverage for rentals, which could save you from extra insurance fees.
