Car Rental In The Philippines 2026 Saferide Who Are We

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to rent a car in the Philippines?

It depends on three things: the vehicle, how many days you're taking it, and the season. A small hatchback for a week in June sits at one end, a van over Holy Week at the other.

What doesn't change is what's in the price. Every rental includes insurance, unlimited mileage, and 24/7 roadside support, so the figure we quote is the figure you pay — we don't add fees at the counter.

Send us your dates and where you're headed and we'll come back with an exact quote. No deposit needed to get one.

What are the requirements for renting a car in the Philippines?

Visiting from overseas: your home-country driver's licence, your passport showing an arrival stamp from within the last 90 days, and a credit card in the driver's name for the refundable security deposit.

Philippine residents: your Philippine driver's licence. If you put the deposit on a credit card, that licence is the only document we need. If you'd rather pay the deposit in cash, GCash or Maya, bring an original proof of billing or company ID and one more government-issued ID.

Age: 21 and above for cars and motorcycles, 30 and above for vans and SUVs. Drivers aged 21 and 22 can rent subject to approval, with a young driver fee.

Bring the originals — we verify them at handover.

Can I drive in the Philippines on my foreign licence?

Yes, for 90 days from the date you arrived.

If your licence is printed in English, that's all you need. No International Driving Permit, nothing to arrange before you fly.

If it's in another language or script, bring an International Driving Permit or an official English translation and carry it together with your original licence. The IDP translates your licence rather than replacing it, so one without the other isn't enough.

Staying past 90 days? You'll need a Philippine licence from the LTO to keep driving.

Do I need a credit card to rent a car?

If you're visiting from overseas, yes — the refundable security deposit goes on a credit card in the driver's name. We place a hold on it rather than charging it, and release the hold when you bring the vehicle back.

If you're a Philippine resident, no. You can settle the deposit in cash, by GCash, or by Maya instead. That said, using a credit card is the quickest way through our counter, because the card covers the security side and your licence becomes the only document we need.

For the rental itself we take credit and debit cards, cash, GCash, Maya, and PayPal.

Is insurance included?

Yes, on every rental, and not as an upsell at the counter. You get a Collision Damage Waiver for the vehicle, Supplemental Liability Insurance for third-party damage and injury, and Personal Accident Insurance for the driver and passengers.

What you're responsible for is the excess — a participation fee if the vehicle is damaged, running from ₱5,000 to ₱35,000 depending on which class of vehicle you book. We tell you yours before you sign anything.

If you'd rather carry no excess at all, you can buy full protection through our partner RentalCover when you book.

Do you deliver the car to the airport or my hotel?

Yes — airports, piers, hotels, resorts, homes, and offices, across all seven of our branches.

Delivery and collection carries a fee based on distance, quoted to you when you book. Give us 24 hours' notice where you can, though it's always worth asking about shorter notice.

For airport and pier pickups, send us your flight or ferry number. We track arrivals in real time and adjust for delays, so our representative is there when you actually land rather than when you were scheduled to.

Do you offer the best car rental with driver in Cebu?

Yes — and the part most people don't expect is that we run around the clock. Book a driver for any hour, including a 2 AM airport run, and there's no night surcharge.

Our chauffeurs are English-speaking and vetted, and they know Cebu, Bohol and Dumaguete properly — not just where the tourist stops are, but which road to take at 5 PM on a Friday. Fuel and insurance are included in the rate, so what we quote is what you pay.

Can I pick up the car in Cebu and drop it off in Dumaguete?

Yes, between our branches — a one-way fee applies, based on the route.

Where the route involves a ferry crossing, there are two conditions. We need to approve it in writing before you travel, and marine insurance is required, which we arrange for you. Your standard rental cover stops at the pier, so while the vehicle is in transit you'd otherwise carry full financial responsibility for it — that's why the cover isn't optional on a crossing.

Tell us your pickup and drop-off points when you enquire and we'll confirm the route, the fee, and the paperwork in one go.

  Great deal and super convenient!
My husband and I found out about this place less than an hour before we were on a city tour with them. Despite not having a reservation, the company welcomed us into their office, and got a car and a driver ready for us in twenty-nine minutes. The tour itself was great, and the driver was very courteous and friendly. We went to seven different spots in the city and the Tops outlook point, which cost us a total of 2800 pesos. A bargain if you ask me. Next time we are in Cebu, we are definitely going with this company again, and hopefully their inter-island yours are just as awesome.

  Business Tip
Went to Cebu for work. Rented a car through Saferide. The driver assigned went beyond his duties by asking around just locate the itinerary. This was very helpful since we were not familiar with the area.

  I’ve been using Saferide Car Rental every time I travel to Cebu and Dumaguete, and they’ve always been reliable and easy to deal with. I recently booked a car with a driver through them, and the experience was excellent. Our driver, Karl, was very professional and drove so smoothly that I didn’t feel car sick at all during the trip. Highly recommended, especially if you want a stress-free ride. Thank you, Saferide and Karl!

  Emson and the rest of the staff were really professional, and extremely friendly.

I forgot my passport at the hotel, and while my friend went to retrieve it, we spent the whole time laughing and sharing stories.

The price is very affordable, the car looks and runs great, and the best part is the entire process was pain free.

I would rent from this place every chance I get. ❤️

  可以信賴的租車公司~ 推薦!
這次去宿霧, 找不到很多相關交通的資訊 大部分是搭黃色的公車或包車 聽聞當地司機價格起伏大 而且公共交通工具沒有固定時間表 而且因為有小孩 決定自己租車自駕 一開始在國際知名的租車網站找不到想要的七人座自排車. 所以嘗試當地的車行 來回的詢問非常迅速確實 接送機也很準時親切 雖然辦公室 (貨櫃屋)很小 但職員非常親切 原先提供的七人座 我們覺得輪胎不好 也協助我們換輪胎 後來因為備胎狀態不佳 所以乾脆換一台新車 給我們 一路上非常開心 推薦此租車行! Very Helpful Staff, on-time pick up and delivery. Recommend!

My wife and I had an excellent experience with this company. The service and helpfulness to meet us and to help us get going and favor rendered when we returned made this a great experience. The coordination was very easy and the car performed perfectly.

  Very good
I recommended this company, we rented sedan with driver (8 hour 2500 pesos) , it was very clean and very good driver. 4-5 hours enough to visit historical places, we rented on Sunday so less traffic. No need to pay huge money (4000-5000 pesos per person) for city tour to other tour company.

  Service sérieux et véhicule de qualité.
Service professionnel, sérieux et clair. Le volet administratif est complet et bien organisé. La communication est rapide et efficace. Le principal, c'est un scooter loué en très bon état, pneus neufs, accessoires de qualité, casques propres. La caution est restituée instantanément au retour.

  We had a lovely experience renting from Saferide. The service was great, and they even extended our car rental by a day since it was a public holiday. We did a self-drive to the South of Cebu and our car Toyota Wigo drove well, even in mountains, and was perfect for 2! Dane made our drop off experience smooth and was very friendly. Would highly recommend renting from Saferide!

  Our driver Bryan was awesome! We rented the car and driver from Saferide for  the day to take us to Simala Shrine. Not only did he get us there and back safely he also suggested other places around Cebu City to visit. Then we went up to Top of Cebu where we had lunch and visited the Sirao Gardens. Cannot say enough about our day with Bryan, Thank you again.

  次の機会もお願いしたいです。
マクタン島からセブシティへの日帰り観光で利用しました。メールで問い合わせをしてから、すぐに返信があり、その後の質問メールへの回答も迅速で、とてもスムーズに安心して予約をすることができました。予約当日も、10分程前にホテルロビーに私たちが着いた時には、すでにドライバーさんは待機してくれていました。セブシティ内のモールや教会など何ヶ所かを回ってもらいましたが、家族の車椅子の出し入れを含め、都度ピックアップもスムーズで助かりました。ほぼ８時間フルの利用となりましたが、コスパも良く、機会あればまたお願いしようと思います。Thank you Ms. Erah for your kind support. Also, thanks to Driver. Bryan Binolirao for entertaining us. We will call you again for the next time!
