You simply pay for a tank of fuel up front and drop the car off at the end of the hire term with no need to fill the tank.

With the car hire Explorers package you can:
  • rent a GPS to ensure you don´t have to rely on your smartphone, never get lost and always arrive at your destination on time.
  • add an additional driver so you can share the driving and arrive feeling refreshed
Explorers gives you flexibility with your car hire.
