Cheap car rental: tips and tricks
To rent a cheap car in Réunion, there are a few tips to keep in mind:
Book your car online: You are more likely to find them at a better price online than at an agency. Why? Because the competition among rental companies is tougher, they offer more attractive rates to ensure they rent out all their cars.
Book in advance: A reservation made in advance will be a better deal than one made at the last minute! Because rental rates depend on the number of cars available. The more cars there are available, the more interesting it will be in terms of budget.
Pick up the vehicle at the airport agency: Renting a car at Roland-Garros Airport is not only more economical, but you will also have more options. Moreover, renting a car directly at the airport in Réunion saves you from taking a taxi to your accommodation, which costs at least several dozen euros.
Choosing the right rental vehicle: It is pointless to choose the cheapest option if it does not meet your needs. For example, renting a Twingo when they have 2 adults and 2 children as passengers will not be cost-effective, as they will double their fuel consumption. To find an affordable rental, you have to take everything into account.
