Can anyone recommend a good car rental in Bangkok. The big companies charge ridiculous prices. Just wondering if anyone has any positive experiences with thai companies
Answer summary
Many expats recommend exploring local Thai car rental companies to save money compared to major international firms. Suggestions include Thai Rent a Car, with monthly rates and reasonable deposits, and local options like Highway Auto. One user mentioned a good experience with Hertz for a rental deal in Phuket. It's also advised to shop around and possibly have a local assist with bookings.
