Some tips when renting a car in Ajaccio:
-
Check your credit card benefits to determine what, if any, car rental insurance coverage is part of your credit card plan. This information can assist you with paying the appropriate amount of insurance – not too much and not too little.
-
Cars with automatic transmission may be more expensive than manual shift – consider comparing before making your final decision.
-
Some rental car agencies, such as Hertz, may provide a cell phone with fees to be determined when making your car selection.
-
Obtain information, written if possible, regarding the pickup/drop off procedure of the rental car agency, office hours and local phone number.
