10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Henley-on-Thames

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for added space, a convertible for the summer months, or an economy car for cost-effectiveness, utilise filters on Expedia to discover the ideal option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary significantly based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. Booking in advance often results in lower rates and increased availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in congested areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age criteria prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most advantageous option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel alternatives, which can also be acceptable. Just ensure you return the car empty in this scenario.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience it offers may make it worthwhile.
  • Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provide peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It’s easy to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning to embark on long road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring additional costs.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's licence is necessary to rent a car.
