Car Hire with Rakuten

Some agencies may provide a complimentary tank of fuel with your rental. Be aware of the terms, such as how much fuel you need to return with to avoid fees.

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

If your travel plans involve different pick-up and drop-off locations, Rakuten offers convenient one-way hires. This flexibility allows you to explore without the hassle of returning to your original pick-up site, making your journey more enjoyable.

Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the vehicle's controls and features before driving off. Knowing how to operate essentials like headlights, wipers, and navigation systems can enhance safety and convenience.

Be sure you know if your rental includes roadside assistance. This can be crucial in the event of breakdowns or emergencies during your rental period.

If you have a specific vehicle in mind, opt for rentals that guarantee your chosen car type. This ensures that you receive the vehicle you expect, rather than being offered an alternative.

Returning your hire car is hassle-free with Rakuten. They provide clear return procedures and multiple options, ensuring a smooth end to your car hire experience, so you can focus on the next part of your journey without any stress.

Be aware that some rental companies impose age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Make sure to check the company’s age policy when booking.
