Tips and advice when looking for a rental car in Israel

Here we have put together some tips on what to consider when looking for a rental car in Israel and regions/states such as Central, Tel Aviv, Northern, Southern, Haifa, Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria.

Refuel the car before returning it

Different companies have different fuel conditions. If the car is to be refueled before return, do so to avoid extra fees from the rental car company. Some smaller companies have an administrative fee for refueling the car if it is to be left empty, which is stated in the conditions but not always in the total price. Look extra carefully at the refueling regulations! If the company has 'Pick up full, drop off empty' then there may be an administrative fee for refueling. Any fee is stated during the booking. It is often the cheaper companies that have 'Pick up full, drop off empty'.

Are there several of you who will drive the car? Where are you going?

Extra driver? If more than one person is driving the car, this must be stated at the time of booking or at the company upon arrival. Remember that there may be restrictions on driving the car to other countries and taking the car from or to islands such as .

Book as early as possible

Book as early as possible, it will usually be more expensive if you wait. In large cities such as Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, West Jerusalem, Haifa, Ashdod, Rishon LeZiyyon, Petah Tikva, Beersheba, Netanya and Holon, prices often rise the later you book. It can also be difficult to find cars at major airports such as Tel Aviv-Ben Gurion Airport, Haifa Airport, Sde Dov Airport, Eilat-Ramon Airport, Kiryat Shmona Airport, Eilat Airport and Ovda Airport, if you wait too long.

Do a quick inspection upon pickup

Inspect and examine the rental car when you pick it up. Check that all damages, scratches and dents are included in the condition report. Check how big the deductible is! What often differentiates between smaller, cheaper companies in Israel and larger global companies is the amount of the deductible. Also read the conditions carefully when it comes to how the car is to be returned. Smaller local companies may have an administrative fee if the car is to be returned with an empty tank. Any fee is stated in our terms and conditions when you apply.
