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.

Before returning the vehicle, clarify the return procedures with the rental company. Knowing where to drop off the car and any required inspections can streamline the process.

Opt for a car that is known for its fuel efficiency to minimize costs during your rental. This decision can significantly reduce your overall travel expenses.

Some rental companies offer a free tank of fuel with your rental. Be sure to understand the terms, including how much fuel you need to return the car with and any potential fees for not meeting these conditions.

Before renting, confirm if your personal auto insurance extends to rental vehicles. Many policies and credit cards offer this coverage, helping you avoid extra charges.
