Cyprus Car Rental: Paphos
Seeing that Paphos has risen in the ranks of popular holiday destinations, you should find it relatively easy to get a Cyprus car rental in Paphos at a competitive rate. Many holiday makers in the months leading up to their vacation go online and check prices, trying to find the most economical. This may not always be the best way to go about booking a Cyprus car rental, whether in Paphos or anywhere else.
So the purpose of this article is to give suggestions for obtaining a good deal when it comes to car rentals. After looking at a way to get the best search engine results, we'll look at a few ideas and guidelines which make car rentals less of a headache.
How To Search
One little tip unknown to many internet users is the use of quotes in Google. If you want specific results you need to enclose your search term in quotation marks. For the purpose of this discussion, load Google in your browser and then type the following phrases in the search field: "cyprus car rental paphos" or "car rental paphos". You will see 2 or 3 results at the top in a colored background. These are advertisements paid for by the vendors. If they have enough cash flow to advertise on Google then they are likely to be a larger company with a larger fleet.
However you can find some good deals if you just open the first 3 or 4 results on the rest of the page and compare prices and conditions. This brings us to the next point, some tips on how to look for the best deal.
Suggestions For When You Hire A Car
Take a few minutes to estimate how many suitcases your family or party will be carrying before deciding on the type of car to book. This may sound a little obvious but you might be surprised at how many visitors try and save on car rental by renting a small car, only to find when they come out the airport and go to the vehicle they can't get everyone in AND the luggage!
As a result, apart from the stress it generates as everyone is just longing to get to their accommodation after a tiring journey, they then have to try and get a taxi and pay out another fifty or sixty euros to get all the passengers and the suitcases to the destination. And of course, the same applies for the return trip to the airport on departure day!
Honestly, it's better to upgrade and get a car that's big enough, perhaps even with a little space to spare, so you don't have all that hassle. At the end of it all, how much do you really save?
Another tip is to take photos of the car (even with your mobile phone it will be fine) before and after you pick it up so there is no danger you will be charged for damage you weren't responsible for.
It is wise to save all the papers relating to the car rental in a safe place until your card statement comes through so you can confirm you have not been charged any extras for damages.
Also, make sure you have the car rental representative's phone number and keep it with you at all times so you know who to contact if there is some problem with the vehicle.
In Conclusion
As mentioned earlier, there are a number of companies now in Cyprus providing car rentals including the big international agencies. This all makes for healthy competition which is good for the customer. Take time well in advance to research a number of companies, be realistic regarding the size of vehicle you will need, and your Cyprus holiday and car rental in Paphos will no doubt cause you no problems on your holiday.
