Can anyone recommend a good rental car company in Ireland? | ||
Hi.... Just Google - cheap rent-a-car Ireland. | 1 | |
Hertz | 2 | |
Thrifty are usually pretty good value and use good cars. But (as with all rental companies) look out for the astronomic cost of 'extra' insurance and so on. | 3 | |
Dublin and Belfast rent-a-car prices can vary quite a bit. | 4 | |
I will be arriving at Dublin airport mid-September and plan to drive from there. | 5 | |
Just be careful about the extra incident ins. You can get EU insurance to cover you, about £40 anually. You can get serious billing for a scratch, watch wheel trims against the pavement. iCarhireinsurance.com ? | 6 | |
Rented a car twice this year - Jan 12 and last week. Both with Thrifty, I've had no problems, friendly staff and the cars have been in a good condition. I would advise a sat nav if this is your first time. Lots of country roads so be careful! Irish Car Rentals is doing all inclusive quotes if that is what you prefer. Enjoy! | 7 | |
Great recommendation on #1 post! Last year we rented with Dan Dooley .... and they have a rental site just outside of Dublin airport, and provide a shuttle to it. | 8 | |
