Renting a Car: Key Questions to Ask Before You Book
Renting a car can be straightforward if you know what to look for. Don't just focus on the base price. Key things to check are: Vehicle Category (not just a model name), Insurance (what's the excess/deductible?), Mileage Policy (unlimited or limited?), and hidden fees like an Additional Driver Fee. Always read the rental company's terms and conditions carefully to avoid surprises.
FAQ:
Q: Should I buy the rental company's full insurance (Zero Excess/Deductible)?
A: It's often wise for peace of mind, as it eliminates your financial liability in case of damage. However, check if your personal car insurance or credit card offers rental coverage that might make this redundant.
Q: Do I need an International Driver's Permit (IDP)?
