Car Hire Tips-Knowlege Is Power
The best car hire tips is about leverage on destination knowlege, its geography, culture and time economy, its the car hire market and product dynamics to save time and money, and to negotiate for the best deals!!, bargains !! and get value for money. Do a thorough research of the destination geography, the terraine, driving distances and the time differences. Draw a route map and locate the places you intend to visit and locate the best resting and find out the most efficient way of visiting theme-color
Know Yourself Or The customer
The best car hire tips are to make sure customer expectations are adequately met by matching the objectives of the trip with the right car and vendor to finish the job in a smooth, timely manner in the most economical way. This is a big challenge hence Customer satisfaction shapes every step of this narrative. The best car hire tips is about matching the best car for the purpose at the best price and making sure the customer (you, me or else) meets the requirements of the car rental agency , vendor or contractor.
Researh on car hire market at the destination
Research on the car market at the destination focusing on the following information:- Car rental companies-Find out the AutoRental suppliers, contractors or vendors at the destination market and their, addresses, contacts, locations(locations des voitures)
- Find out the type of cars on offer and find out the most suitable car for your needs
- Rental options available- self drive, chauffeur driven and the rental, prices or rates, the seasonal variations and the discounts if any. Find out the supply demand supply during your visit, the suppliers of repuatation, available options etc
- Continuity- find out the support back up available in case of breakdown. Do they offer 24 hours support? If not how long do you have to wait for back up? Do they have the capacity to change the car?
- Insurance-get information on insurance on offer. If your credit card company offers auto insurance then there is no need of another cover. In most cases comprehensive cover or insurance compli covers CDW TPW FPW.
- Documentation-get information on driver requirements. The standard requirements for car hire is a valid driving license and passport. Find out additional driver requirement and infomation on underage driving. In some countries there restriction on minimum age of drivers age to 25 years and a maximum of 73. Juvenile driving is restricted in most countries and if allowed there is additional charge for it
- Fuel or Gas-get information who is responsible for fueling the car. Remember it is always better to fill the car yourself. Get the car with minimum amount of fuel like say 1/4 full and likewise return it.
- Read vendor reviews to gauge their repuation. Narrow down you list to two or three most reputable and make enquiries.
- Avoid information overload: There is no limit as to tne number of vendors, contractors or car hire agencies to contact. However avoid too many contacts which may end confusing you
- Negotiate the most favorable deal for yourself
Car Hire Tips-Book In Advance And Advance A Deposit
In booking two questions arise, actually four. When is the right time? to book your car hire Should one commit with a deposit? A nothing to lose, zero commitment, gentleman's agreement is not binding. Deposit is what commits the car hire company or agency to keep your car. Deposit is a show of seriousness and respect. Would you rather lose your money or reputation. I am addressing the renter or hirer not the car hire company or vendor. My advice is always book your car hire in advance and make a deposit as commitment to avoid last minute embarassment. There nothing as embarassing as arriving at a destination with wife, spouse, fiance and children in tow only to discover your car hire was canceled because you failed to make a deposit. During high or peak season I have seen and helped holiday arrive at the airport only to discover there is no car waiting for them because they failed to pay a deposit. When the deal is too good think twice. For safari goers Avoid armtwisting tour operators into accepting low season prices for safari land cruisers during the high season. Be prepared to top up or look for alternatives. The tour operator would rather get USD 350 per day and refund your 200 per day. For group travel always make sure you book in advance and make a commitment.
