10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Ko Lanta

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the best fit for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you're likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals offer a good compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements before making a booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid extra charges. This is generally the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car with an empty tank in that case.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: You will often incur a surcharge for picking up your rental car at airports, but the convenience may make it worthwhile.
  • Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only accept credit cards as payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help prevent unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It's straightforward to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning extensive road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid additional charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
