To score the best price on a Eilat car hire, it's a good idea to book in advance. Rates tend to rise as your travel dates get closer, and you might have less to pick from.
Rent your wheels from Avis, Europcar or Budget. They're some of the most well-known providers in the city.
The coverage Avis or another supplier offers for your Eilat car hire can vary, so always go over the fine print. While some include a collision damage waiver (CDW), others will apply a surcharge for it.
Consider booking a one-way rental. You might be able to score a good deal if the provider needs to relocate some of its vehicles. Discover the best available rates by clicking 'Return car to a different location.'
Search for a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You'll pick up and drop off your ride with a full tank, so you're only paying for what you use. No surprise fuel add-ons when you hand back the keys either.
Hit the highway without counting the miles and racking up extra fees. Go to the 'Policies' filter and pick 'Unlimited mileage' to find a car that lets you travel without limits.

If you fall outside the typical age range, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to browse your options.
Travelling with kids? Car seat laws vary depending on where you are, and the right setup may depend on their age, height and weight. Check if you need to add one to your Eilat car hire booking.
You'll be asked to provide some documents when you pick up your ride. As a general rule, bring a valid driver's licence, a credit card with room for the security deposit (most companies don't accept debit cards), and additional photo ID. Your booking will tell you exactly what you need.
