FAQ
How can I pay for my rental car?
Payment for a rental car should preferably be made by credit card. It is possible to pay by debit card, however at the rental counter you will need a credit card issued to the main driver in order to secure the deposit for your rental car.
Who is allowed to drive the rental car and what are the conditions?
A rental car can be driven by a main driver, that is the person registered in the booking. Additional drivers may be added to the reservation at extra fee. The main and additional drivers are to present a valid driving license, which they have been in possession of for at least one year (please refer to the rental conditions), and a valid identity card/passport. Additionally, the main driver is to present a valid credit card issued in their name.
Do I have to pick up and return the car at any time? What happens if I am late for pick-up?
We recommend that you pick up the car at the agreed time as the availability of the car cannot be guaranteed in case of a delay. As a rule, local suppliers keep vehicles available up to 30 or 60 minutes after the agreed time. If a delay is inevitable, please contact the rental agency (you will find their contact details on the voucher).
What documents are required to pick up the vehicle?
When picking up the vehicle, the main driver is to present the following documents: the printed voucher, their identity card or passport; their driving's license and their valid credit card.

Thailand Attractions and Travel Tips

Cheap Car Rental Thailand

From the hot jungles of the north to the idyllic beaches of the south, Thailand brims with diversity and it soon becomes clear why it is the most visited country in Southeast Asia. Its ubiquitous Buddhist temples and religious icons permeate modern metropolises and old villages in equal measure alongside backpacker bungalows and luxury hotels. Experience the relaxed lifestyle with fresh and nuanced Thai food is enough for many to extend their stay considerably. HAPPYCAR is here to help you find the best car hire Thailand has to offer so you can take full advantage of this generous country and a Thailand car hire is available from all major international airports. We check the prices of international and local providers so that you don’t have to check each website, and provide you with the best deals to make your money go further. Using the online comparison portal HAPPYCAR, you can find the right car hire for your specific vacation needs at the best price.

General Information

Thailand has successfully remained its own country, having thoroughly resisted colonial invasion and maintaining its own rich heritage. 85 percent of the population are still practicing Buddhists and a number of colorful temples dot the entirety of the country. The most densely populated region remains its Central Plains, with the bulk of Thailand’s agricultural economy clustered amidst towns and villages. The unwieldy Bangkok shines out with its neon lights and international air. In the north, you will quickly find a distinctive region best known for its sharp mountains and the Mekong River, and to the east there are some great all inclusive vacation destinations and a stunning drive up the east coast on Highway 3, something a car hire in Thailand can make a reality. The south of Thailand is home to the Gulf Coast and the Samui Archipelago, three small islands that make for one of the most relaxing getaway breaks in the area.

Bangkok is the political, economic, cultural, culinary, and spiritual capital of Thailand. Bangkok is usually the first port of call for the huge number of tourists that explore the country, with HAPPYCAR pick up locations at the Bangkok Airport. The last two centuries of development since the city was founded offers visitors an almost overwhelming amount of things to do, see and eat. A visit to Thailand’s Grand Palace is a must see for everybody making their way through this City of Angels.

Chiang Mai is the cultural hub of the north and the heart of the ancient Lanna Kingdom. Its historical walled inner city feature over 30 temples that date back to the city’s founding around 1300 AD, which have a beautiful array of designs and carvings to enjoy. The most famous is the Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep, perched on a mountainside around 13 kilometers away from the city. The night bazaars around the Ping River are a great hub for nightlife in Chiang Mai, where you can whittle away your entire vacation, or you could head to the Botanic Garden to breathe in the delicate and iconic Thai orchids.

Phuket was originally the typical paradise island and is still a popular favorite from tourists all over the world. This largest Andaman Island is completely accessible by car and while it is considered the party capital there are a number of pristine beaches still to be savoured. Its history is heavily influenced by the large influx of traders from India and China, and further afield, and you can spend a lot of your time simply enjoying some of the fantastic Sino-Portuguese architecture on the island.

Landscapes/Excursions

Thailand features an enormous range of outdoor pursuits and breathtaking crumbling monasteries and temples tucked away in rainforests and mountains. Ko Tao is fast becoming one of Asia’s great scuba diving hubs and the Similan Islands are an excellent choice for snorkeling. Khao Yai National Park is within easy distance with a Thailand car rental, where you can explore a maze of hiking trails and discover waterfalls, orchids and some abundant wildlife. South on the peninsula, you can also try your hand at rock climbing with some truly inspiring scenery. Whatever kind of Thai vacation you would like to have, HAPPYCAR allows you the comfort and ease of skipping the lines to book bus or train tickets by choosing a rental car specific to your car hire needs.
