Car Hire with Drive on Holidays

Ensure you understand the roadside assistance that comes with your rental. This information is vital in case of breakdowns or emergencies.

If you're seeking extra comfort or features, inquire about upgrade options at the rental desk. Often, there are discounted upgrades available at pickup.

Some rentals impose mileage caps, while others offer unlimited mileage. Read the policies carefully to avoid unexpected fees at the end of your rental.

Ensure your rental agreement, identification, and insurance details are readily available throughout your rental period for easy access if needed.

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

When evaluating insurance, consider options that include free excess coverage, meaning you won’t pay a deductible for damages, offering additional reassurance.

Familiarize yourself with the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy requires returning the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means returning at the same fuel level. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

Note that certain rental companies have age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Always verify the age policy before booking.
