Question 1

What should I do if I damage a car hire car at Georgetown?

Accepted Answer

If you damage a hire car at Georgetown, the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) typically covers the cost of repairs. To avoid additional expenses, make sure your insurance policy includes zero excess coverage. If your CDW has an excess limit, you'll be responsible for paying part of the repair costs, which is usually deducted from the deposit you provided when renting the car. For specific details on coverage and potential charges, it's best to check your rental agreement and insurance policy before you drive.

Question 2

Can another person drive my rental vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Yes, another person can drive your hire vehicle, but they must be authorised by the hire company. Typically, you need to add them as an additional driver when booking or picking up the car. There may be an extra fee for adding additional drivers, and they must meet the same age and driving licence requirements as the primary driver. Check with the car hire company for specific terms and conditions.

Question 3

Is renting a car for a week at Georgetown more cost-effective?

Accepted Answer

Renting a car for a week at Georgetown can sometimes be more cost-effective than renting for a shorter period, as many car hire companies offer weekly rates that provide better value. To ensure you get the best deal, it’s advisable to compare rates and check for any available discounts or promotions during the booking process. Always review the pricing details carefully before finalizing your reservation.

Question 4

Do I need to return the car with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

Whether you need to return the car with a full tank of gas depends on the fuel policy you select. With a full-to-full or same-to-same policy, you must return the vehicle with the same level of fuel it had when you picked it up. If you don’t, you’ll incur a charge for the missing fuel, usually at a rate higher than local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank, which means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, this option typically results in a higher overall cost, as you’ll be charged the local gas price minus a discount per gallon.

Question 5

Can I bring pets when renting a car at Georgetown?

Accepted Answer

At Georgetown, most rental agencies, including budget, Hertz, , , and , allow pets in their vehicles. Some companies may require pets to be transported in carriers, and you will generally need to clean the car interior and remove any pet hair to avoid additional cleaning fees. Service animals are an exception and are allowed in the vehicle without a carrier. For specific details on the pet policy, it's best to check with the rental company before your trip.

Question 6

Is it necessary to buy additional insurance when renting a car at Georgetown?

Accepted Answer

When renting a car at Georgetown, valid insurance is required for financial protection; without it, your rental may be denied. If you already have insurance that covers international rentals for your vehicle type or if your credit card offers rental insurance abroad, you might not need extra coverage. However, if these conditions don't apply to you, purchasing additional insurance is advisable. You can choose from options such as Excess Fee Insurance during the booking process on our website, or Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the rental counter to ensure comprehensive protection.

Question 7

Can international visitors rent a car at Georgetown

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can rent a car as a foreigner at Georgetown. However, you will need a valid international driving permit (IDP) along with your home country driver’s license. Additionally, be prepared to provide a credit card for the deposit and reservation. Rental requirements may vary by company, so it's a good idea to check with the car hire provider or use our website, VoyageCopilot.com, to find car hire options and requirements for international drivers.
