Car Rental in El Brillante, Málaga, Spain

When renting a car, especially after travelling by train, allocate extra time for pickup to account for possible delays. Most rental 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 rental provider to let them know.

Research fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Filling up at a local station may be cheaper than paying for fuel through the rental company, especially if they charge higher rates.

If you're looking for extra comfort or features, ask about upgrade possibilities at the rental desk. Often, there are discounted upgrades available at pickup.

To secure the best rates, book your car rental at least 2 weeks in advance. Generally, December offers the lowest prices for rentals in El Brillante.

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.

If you're traveling with pets, check the rental agency’s pet policy. Some companies allow pets, but additional fees or specific conditions may apply.

Some rental agencies might offer a free tank of fuel with your rental. Be aware of the conditions, such as how much fuel to return with to avoid extra charges.

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.
