Elmonte World Market Rates
Available to Residents of all Countries

The World Market Rates work on a system similar to which airlines use and reduce rates when they have plenty of vehicles and increase rates at times of high demand. So if you you are booking in an 'off' period, rates can be up to half the normal rates. However, once booked, should you need to amend the dates, the prevailing rates will apply. We get advised of new flex rates each week. Therefore each quote only valid until the end of each week.

The Elmonte Standard rates are not available for US Residents, however the World Market Rates are available to residents of all countries, including US Residents.

No mileage is included in the World Market rates. Choose from the available mileage options above. Once booked and confirmed, should you need to change, the rate will be re-calculated using the most current World Market rates. Changing party size or adding pre-paid items does not consitute a change. Flex rate valid for 35 days and on day 36 a new Flex rate will apply.

*World Market Rates are valid for upto 40 days. Rates are on request for rental of 41 days or more*
