Answers to popular questions

A rental car typically costs 24$ a day. However, the costs start at 8$ per day and can go as high as 85$ per day. The final price is directly influenced by the category of rental vehicles, the vehicle's features, your age, the date of booking, the length of the rental, etc.

Even if you caused the damage, third-party insurance is usually included in the rental price. This insurance does not cover car or driver damage.
Many base contracts include a large deductible (damages not insured by the rental provider). If you cause an accident, you must pay the contract's deductible to repair the rental car. You can add extra insurance to your rental to cover car damage. Did you know that some banks cover you when traveling if you used your card to pay?

When going on vacation, renting a car in Panama City gives you the freedom to go wherever you want, whenever you want, and on your own schedule. Because of this, it is virtually always a smart decision to get behind the wheel.It is always beneficial to have the freedom to travel during times that are less likely to be crowded on public transportation, such as early in the morning or late at night, should you find that to be more convenient.

It depends on the number of passengers and the amount of luggage each person is carrying. However, the following factors to think about before vacationing in Panama City:

Size: Our major suggestion is to choose a car that is not excessively wide. There are some tiny streets when you are driving through old towns or historical villages. It will be less stressful in a narrower automobile. Ford Ka is the most well-liked model among economy classes in Panama City. From EUROPCAR the daily rate for this vehicle begins at 15$.

Power: Any size car will be able to travel the entire country. However, if you choose an engine that is not the smallest, it will be more comfortable in the highlands.

The most likely model is displayed on both the search result page and on your voucher. Despite this, the automobile class is always reserved at all rental car firms because doing so is required by international rules regulating car rentals. When you get to the office, you'll be given the opportunity to select the make and model of the car you want to drive. The following is an explanation of the many classifications of cars:

Car rental models

On the other hand, there are some circumstances in which you will be able to reserve a specific model. In the event that such a feature can be selected, a distinct notation will be displayed next to the automobile in the list of search results.

For online payments, we accept Visa, Mastercard, and American Express.
Please be aware that the local supplier will demand that you leave a security deposit for the car when you take it up. This manifests as a minimal amount (Excess + VAT) being put on the primary driver's credit card as a block. At the rental desk, you must have a credit card with you.
We will accept a debit card if purchase our Platinum Insurance plan for the duration of your rental period.
