  • Check out the offers available with Europcar, Budget and SGF. They're some of the top providers in the city.

  • Always check if a collision damage waiver (CDW) is part of your Ariana car hire policy, whether you go with Europcar or another supplier. Some companies treat it as an optional extra instead of bundling it in.

  • Consider booking a one-way rental. You might be able to land a good deal if the provider needs to move vehicles between sites. Find the best available rates by clicking 'Return car to a different location.'

  • Avoid those steep refueling fees by booking a ride with a 'Fair fuel policy.' Begin and end your trip with a full tank, and only pay for what you actually use.

Compare car hire types in Ariana

  • Small: These cheap rental cars in Ariana may be small in size, but they pack a big punch. Including mini and economy vehicles, they're nimble, light on fuel, and a match made in heaven for city driving.

  • Medium: Choose from compact and intermediate cars that combine comfort, fuel efficiency and space. Easy to manoeuvre in cities and roomy enough for longer drives, they're a reliable pick for most journeys.

  • Large: Offering a more comfortable driving experience and advanced tech features, this Ariana car hire category includes full-size cars. With larger rear seats and plenty of storage space, they let you load up and take everyone, and everything, with ease.

  • SUV: When adventure calls, an SUV says, 'let's go.' It's your ultimate road trip companion, ready for highways, backroads, and everything in between. These sports utility vehicles also offer extra space and advanced safety features.

Insurance and optional extras

  • Choosing excess insurance for your Ariana car hire can take the stress out of driving. It protects you from paying a big excess fee in case of an accident or theft. Insurance policies aren't the same across all rental providers, so compare before you commit.

  • From navigation systems to mobile Wi-Fi hotspots, the right extras can make all the difference on the road. Consider which add-ons could enhance your trip when you rent a car in Ariana.

Good to know

  • Check each provider's age requirements before booking your rental in Tunisia. Rules can vary, and added costs or restrictions may apply if you're a younger driver. At the start of your search, uncheck the 'Driver aged between 25–70' box and enter your age to explore your options.

  • If you're travelling with kids, check if you should add a car seat to your Ariana car hire booking. Whether local laws require them or not, they're always the safest way for youngsters to travel.

  • You'll be asked to provide some documents when you pick up your ride. As a rule, bring your physical driver's licence, a credit card with enough funds to cover the excess (debit cards usually aren't accepted), and additional photo ID. Your booking confirmation will spell it all out.

  • For first-time drivers in Tunisia, keep in mind that traffic here keeps to the right side of the road.

  • Local speed limits can vary, but it's normally around 45kph in built-up areas and 100kph or so on highways. Always go by the posted signs.

  • A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.03% applies in Tunisia. The only sure way to stay legal to drive is to skip the drinks.

  • Around 8am is one of the busiest times for traffic around this destination. Try to avoid peak travel times generally for a more relaxed drive.

  • You'll be using the Tunisian Dinar (TND) for everything you buy here. You may find it useful to carry a mix of cards and cash for more flexibility when paying.
