Our verdict

Orlando Rent a Car is a straightforward car hire specialist, and it suits travelers who want a single rental booking with free cancellation before pick-up rather than a full trip built on one site. The company behind it has traded since 1976 and answers on email, phone and help centre.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Cancellation is free before pick-up, so a delayed flight or a change of plan does not cost the rental.
  • The booking sits with Orlando Rent A Car S.A., trading since 1976, so a named operator stands behind the car.
  • Support runs on email, phone and help centre, giving a written route, a phone route and a help centre at the same time.
  • car rental is the only line on the site, so the search stays on the vehicle instead of turning into a general travel shop.
  • Of the options here, this is the one that rents cars: Intrepid Travel lists packages, tours and cruise and Čedok lists flights, packages and tours, neither with car hire.

Cons

  • car rental is the whole catalogue, so unlike Emirates at flights, hotels and tours you cannot add a flight or a hotel to the same booking.
  • Night fees, a fee for returning the car to a different location and hotel fees may apply, so a simple booking can finish above the rate you started with.
  • Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so anything urgent at the desk means picking up the phone rather than starting a live chat.
  • Set against Intrepid Travel at packages, tours and cruise and Čedok at flights, packages and tours, a rental leaves the rest of the trip to arrange elsewhere.

Who it suits

  • Travelers who know they want a car and want to cancel free before pick-up if the plan shifts.
  • Drivers who want phone and written backup alongside a help centre: email, phone and help centre.
  • Families renting a car straight from a specialist, where the booking stays on car rental and the rest of the trip is organized separately.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Anyone booking a flight or hotel in the same basket as the car: Emirates lists flights, hotels and tours.
  • Guided small group travelers who prefer the driving handled for them: Intrepid Travel lists packages, tours and cruise.
  • Ski and cruise holidaymakers: Čedok lists flights, packages and tours.

Fees and cancellation

The cost picture has a fee side and a cancellation side. Night fees, a fee for returning the car to a different location and hotel fees may all apply on top of the rental, so a booking that looks simple can still pick up extras for a late return, a different drop-off point or a stay arranged alongside the car. The cancellation side is friendlier: cancellation is free before pick-up, so a change of plan right up to collection carries no charge. Those extras are the part that moves the total, so they are worth reading as carefully as the rental rate itself.

Who runs it

Orlando Rent a Car is run by Orlando Rent A Car S.A., registered in Spain and trading since 1976, so the booking is placed with a named, long standing company rather than a passing reseller. Support runs on email, phone and help centre, which gives a written route for questions planned before the trip and a phone route for anything urgent at the counter. The help centre sits alongside both for the questions you can settle yourself ahead of pick-up.

How Orlando Rent a Car compares

Frequently asked questions

What can I actually book on this site?+

Car rental, and that is the whole list: car rental. There is no flight, hotel or transfer line to add, so a trip with several moving parts has to be assembled across more than one booking. A site such as Emirates, listing flights, hotels and tours, keeps those pieces together, while here the car stands on its own.

What extra charges should I watch for on a rental?+

Night fees, a fee for returning the car to a different location and hotel fees may apply on top of the rental. Each one lands on a booking whose only product is car rental, so the extras are the part most likely to move the final figure. Cancellation is free before pick-up, so it pays to hold the booking while plans settle.

Can I cancel a car hire booking without paying anything?+

Cancellation is free before pick-up, so changing your mind before collection carries no charge. After the car is collected the terms are different, and any night or hotel fees already added would not come back. Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so the cancellation can be made by phone or email as well as through the help centre.

How long has the company behind the rental been trading?+

Orlando Rent a Car trades as Orlando Rent A Car S.A. and has been in business since 1976, with its head office in Spain. Support runs on email, phone and help centre for the practical questions that come up around collection and return, which matters more for a rental than for most other bookings.

How do I reach someone if something is wrong at pick-up?+

Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so there is phone support for a problem at the counter, email for anything to send over, and a help centre for the questions you would rather read before traveling. Phone is the channel that counts at pick-up, because a query at the desk delays the drive.

Is this a full travel agency or only a rental desk?+

Only a rental desk. The product list is car rental, where Emirates runs flights, hotels and tours and Čedok runs flights, packages and tours. Those broader sites suit a traveler booking a whole trip in one place, while this one suits a driver who already has flights and a hotel sorted and only needs the car.

How does it compare with a tour operator for a family trip?+

Intrepid Travel lists packages, tours and cruise, so it is a different kind of trip entirely, with the driving organized for you. Orlando Rent a Car lists car rental and leaves the wheel with you, which suits a family wanting a car for part of a longer holiday and the freedom to stop where they like.
