However, some tips you have to keep in mind before renting a car such as-

1. Rates Of The Rental Car

First of all, there are very few companies who provide self-drive car rental services. And, most of them refuse to negotiate the rates of a rental car. So, before booking, get the proper details about it.

2. Beware Of Additional Charges

Some car rental companies in Siliguri add hidden charges which may not be convenient for you. So, select the right car rental company either from Bagdogra Airport or from NJP to not to face any extra charges.

3. Well-Maintained Self-Drive Car

Do not hurry in booking your car! Just Don’t! Check the brakes, acceleration and the functionality of the car carefully before booking to avoid hassles during the journey.

4. Dedicated customer service

Book your car smartly with the company who not only claims to provide good customer service but means it. Many of them are well connected to you until you book the car, but not after that. So be conscious about it by reading the guest’s previous comments.

5. Carry Documents

Do not book a car from the company who rejects to provide up-to-date documentation of the vehicle. Since this might result in breaking the traffic rules and you might have to pay a huge amount as fine. Also, don’t forget to bring your driving license.

6. Check The Fuel

It is important to check the fuel before setting off for your journey. Some company’s policy does not include petrol or diesel services. Some of them also demand the same amount of fuel while returning the car. You should also check whether your car runs on petrol or diesel.

Always be aware of such things while you book a self-drive car service. Your safety is in your own hand. Enjoy a journey in the self-drive car and cherish it in your heart forever.
