Cheap DRIVUS Car Hire in Istanbul

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

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 hiring a car in Istanbul, be aware that rentals are charged per day. For instance, DRIVUS charges per day, so if you rent for more than 24 hours, you’ll incur an additional day’s charge. Plan your hire period to avoid extra costs

If you are travelling to Istanbul and considering hiring a car, choosing an in-terminal car hire supplier can save you time and hassle. Suppliers like DRIVUS have locations right at the airport, allowing you to avoid shuttle buses or meet-and-greet services and ensuring a quicker and more convenient pickup.

Familiarize yourself with local habits to enhance your safety and compliance on the road.

Most rental companies will require a credit card for the deposit, which is typically frozen in your account. Make sure to inquire about the specific deposit amount and the policy for releasing the freeze.

Before finalizing your booking, check if the rental company offers free cancellation. This can provide peace of mind if your travel plans change unexpectedly.

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.
