How to rent a car in Albania for an hour
Tourists are people who come to Albania for different purposes and for different periods of time. There are those who are on annual leave, so they can afford to bask on the beaches of the Adriatic and Ionian Seas for a long time. And some people come for just a few days to quickly get acquainted with the sights of the country. It is especially convenient for them to rent a car with an hourly rate.
Let’s look at how to make such a rental.
Advantages of hourly rental
The main task of tourists who come for a short period of time is to use their time as efficiently as possible. After all, you will want to visit the beaches, see historical sites, and go to the mountains. Albania allows you to do this because it has all of this.
But how do you get to the right place with minimal time? You shouldn’t count on public transport, as local buses often don’t follow schedules. Taxis are expensive, although there are licensed companies, but you need to find a car with a meter.
If you rent a car with an hourly rate, it will be beneficial not only financially. The advantages also include
- the ability to accurately plan visits to different places;
- no worries that you might not be in time for something.
Moreover, you can book a car in advance, and it will be waiting for you at the point in the city that you specify.
Where to find and how to choose a landlord
Thanks to the Internet, it is easy to find landlords in Albania. Just enter the appropriate query in the search bar. For example, cheap car rental in Albania at roscar.al. To choose the right company, you need to compare the rental conditions and pay attention to the following:
- How much does it cost to rent a car per hour?
- What cars are offered? If you have limited funds, it is better to take an economy-class car.
- Whether a deposit is required for the rental. Some companies mandatorily freeze part of the deposit during the rental period so that in case of violation of the terms, the client is guaranteed to pay.
- Whether there is a free cancellation policy.
Of course, the option with the lowest rental price, no deposit, and free cancellation will be more profitable.
How to make a lease
If you’ve already chosen a company, you’ll need to take a few more steps to use the car at the right time.
- Choose a car. The first step is to choose a car category. It can be something small, compact, or with a roomy interior, cheaper or premium.
- Specify the exact rental time.
- Tell us where it is convenient to pick up the car.
- If necessary, request additional services, such as a child seat. If a child will be travelling with you, a child seat is mandatory.
The last step is to provide your contact details. Since the booking is made online, you will need an email address to which you will receive a notification that the booking has been made. It will appear as soon as you make an advance payment for the rental (usually 15-20% of the total amount, which is calculated automatically). The remaining part is paid when you receive the car keys.
