Tip 2: Pay attention to rental car fuel type
When renting a car in an unfamiliar country, be aware of gas (Petro) vs diesel. It could be the pump handle is opposite color than you are used to. For example, Ireland is the opposite of the US. Trust us…this is an expensive lesson to learn the hard way.
Tip 1: Pre-paying helps spread travel costs
Pre-paying for leisure travel hotel stays can help with budgeting and paying for the trip. You will know exact costs early, and it lessens the burden of the costs during the trip itself. Many hotel chains now offer cheaper pre-paid rates. Make sure you are aware of cancellation penalties. Vacation rentals (e.g. Airbnb) also often require a portion of the total rental to be pre-paid as a deposit.
