I’m, however, guessing that you may have a few questions about car rental in Jamaica. For example...
Finding a reliable car rental company is imperative if you are planning to drive around the island on your own. The companies in existence are a mix of local and international. Let me hasten to assure you that you are never really far away from a car rental company. As a matter of fact, there are companies which operate straight out of the airports enabling you to pick up your car then and there. Some companies even facilitate online booking to make your travel hassle-free. So potentially, as soon as you hit the island you can be on wheels.
Your car will be priced based on the following:
Size - medium to midsized cars are the cheapest, next in line is the premium full-sized car, then the SUV, while the most costly is the minivan.
Brand - Toyota Corollas and Nissan Tidas are cheaper than Honda Civics or even a Toyota Camry.
Features - You pay for the features, my friend. If you like accessories like leather seats for instance you will be charged more. Need special features? If you require extras such as car seats or have a preference such as manual transmission, you need to communicate with the dealer at least 3 days in advance of your pick up.
Days - More days more savings. After 3 days the rental companies usually offer a discount, seven days or more equals greater savings.
What’s included in my quote? Quotes generally include rental fees, insurance and value-added tax. Find out what is included to prevent unpleasant surprises later on. Hint. Hint. Read the fine print before deciding on a plan for the insurance.
Thankfully some credit card companies offer motor vehicle insurance coverage. Check with your provider to see if you qualify and how it works. If they offer it there will be no additional charges for you when you come to Jamaica.
At last check, these were the top five rental car dealers in Jamaica
Now go and enjoy your Jamaican driving experience :-)
