Car Hire in El-Amîrîya, Cairo, Egypt

Take time to carefully read the rental agreement. Being informed about the terms will help you avoid hidden fees and ensure a smooth rental process.

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.

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

If someone else will drive, confirm the rental company's policy on additional drivers and any fees that may apply. Some might offer complimentary drivers under certain conditions.

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.

Before leaving the rental location, check that the vehicle is stocked with essential emergency supplies such as a spare tire, jack, and first aid kit.

Most rental companies prefer credit cards and might have limitations on debit card usage. Always check the accepted payment methods prior to booking.

Look up fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Refueling at a local station is often cheaper than paying the rental company's rates.
