No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Hertz booking in Gaspé are clearly shown at the time of reservation and in your confirmation email, so you know exactly what you are paying before you arrive at the Hertz counter.

On top of that, every Hola Car Rentals booking includes the No Extra Charges© guarantee. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the Hertz counter in Gaspé charges you for something that was not listed on your confirmation and was not an optional add-on you accepted. If that happens, Hola Car Rentals will work with Hertz to remove or reimburse the charge after verification.

The only costs outside this guarantee are:

• Optional add-ons you choose at the counter (GPS, child seats, prepaid fuel)
• Usage-based charges (tolls, fuel shortfall, traffic fines)

To collect your Hertz vehicle in Gaspé, you must bring all of the following physical documents. Digital copies are not accepted at the counter.

• Valid driver's license (original, unexpired, in the main driver's name)
• International Driving Permit (IDP) if your license uses a non-Latin alphabet such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic. For licenses in Latin script but not in English, an IDP is strongly recommended
• Major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, in the main driver's name, for the security hold
• Passport or valid government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets (required for visitors from abroad)

The IDP is a translation document only and must always be carried alongside your original license. It is not a standalone document and will not be accepted without the original. If you think you may need one, obtain it in your home country before traveling to Gaspé, as Hertz cannot issue one at the counter.

Yes, a major credit card in the main driver's name with the driver's name printed on the card is required to pick up your Hertz rental in Gaspé.

At pickup, Hertz will place a temporary authorization hold on your card. For Canada, this hold is typically CAUS$ 300 to CAUS$ 500, though some locations may require up to CAUS$ 750. The hold reduces your available credit until it is released after you return the vehicle. Your bank controls when the funds appear back on your account, which can take up to 15 business days.

• Debit cards and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security hold
• Virtual or single-use card numbers are not accepted at the counter
• The card must be physically present and in the main driver's name

Even if you prepaid your booking online, you must still present a physical credit card at the Hertz counter in Gaspé. Bringing a backup credit card is strongly recommended in case your primary card is declined.

Yes, Hertz does offer one-way rentals from Gaspé, allowing you to pick up at one location and return the vehicle at a different location, subject to availability and route restrictions.

A drop-off fee may apply depending on your route. This fee is route-specific and varies by destination, vehicle class, and season. You will see any applicable drop-off fee listed under the "To pay at destination" section during the booking process and on your confirmation.

• Same-city or short-distance routes sometimes carry no drop-off fee
• Longer routes between regions in Quebec typically do carry a one-way fee
• Cross-border one-way rentals (for example, returning outside Canada) may be restricted or carry higher fees

If you need to change your return location after booking your Hertz rental in Gaspé, be aware that this may reprice the entire reservation and recalculate the drop-off fee. Always confirm the fee shown on your confirmation matches what Hertz presents at the counter in Gaspé before signing the rental agreement.

Quebec operates cashless toll roads, meaning there are no cash payment options at toll booths. All tolls must be paid electronically or online.

When driving your Hertz rental in or around Gaspé and the broader Gaspe Peninsula, you should be aware of how tolls work with a rental vehicle in Quebec:

• Quebec's toll system is fully cashless. You cannot pay with cash at a toll point
• Hertz vehicles typically include an electronic toll device. At pickup, you can choose to enroll in an unlimited toll program or pay per use
• If you opt out of the toll program and drive through a cashless toll, Hertz will charge the toll amount plus administrative or processing fees to your credit card, sometimes weeks after the rental ends
• Route 132, the main coastal highway around the Gaspe Peninsula, does not itself have toll points, but routes connecting Gaspé to other parts of Quebec may pass through toll areas

Review the toll program options carefully at the Hertz counter in Gaspé before signing your rental agreement, as daily program fees can add up on longer trips.

All bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include Tolls Cashback, which reimburses you for tolls paid during your Hertz rental in Gaspé, up to 5% of your total booking value.

For example, if your booking total is US$500, the maximum cashback is US$25. If you paid US$15 in tolls, you receive US$15 back. If you paid US$40 in tolls, you receive the capped amount of US$25.

To claim your cashback after returning your Hertz vehicle in Gaspé:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning the vehicle
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - Reservation [Your Confirmation Number]
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation, the signed rental agreement from Hertz, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid
• Include your full name, travel dates, and the last 4 digits of the card used for your booking

Refunds are issued to the original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted. This benefit does not mean tolls are included in your booking; you still pay tolls normally and claim reimbursement afterward.

Driving your Hertz rental around Gaspé and the Gaspe Peninsula on Route 132 involves some conditions that differ from typical urban or highway driving in Quebec.

• Route 132 is a narrow, winding coastal highway that loops around the entire Gaspe Peninsula. It was originally built in the 1920s and includes sections with heritage covered bridges and tight curves that can surprise drivers used to modern multi-lane roads
• Some streets in Gaspé itself have been made one-way to assist with snow removal on hilly terrain. Wayman Street, for example, runs one-way uphill between Gaspé Boulevard and Wakeham Street. Downhill traffic is not permitted on this stretch, which can be disorienting for visitors unfamiliar with the local layout
• The access routes to Gaspé via Autoroute 85 and Route 185 include at-grade sections and sharp transitions, particularly after Saint-Louis-du-Ha! Ha!, which differ from the fully controlled-access highways found closer to Rivière-du-Loup
• Winter driving conditions are significant in this region. Snow, ice, and mountain terrain are common, and winter tires are mandatory in Quebec from December 1 to March 15

Take extra care when navigating your Hertz rental through Gaspé's hilly streets and the peninsula's coastal roads, especially if you are arriving from a flat or urban driving environment.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Hertz rental in Gaspé, either at no cost if your rate includes it, or for a daily fee paid at the counter if it does not.

For Hertz, the additional driver fee when not included in your rate is US$13.50 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum charge of US$189 plus taxes.

To add an additional driver at the Hertz counter in Gaspé:

• The additional driver must be physically present at pickup
• They must bring their valid driver's license and any required IDP
• Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement
• Confirm the additional driver's name appears on your paperwork before leaving the counter

Only drivers listed on the rental agreement are covered by the vehicle's protections, including CDW and liability coverage. If someone drives the Hertz vehicle in Gaspé who is not named on the agreement, coverage may be void and additional charges could apply. Check your booking confirmation before arriving to see whether your rate already includes one additional driver at no extra cost.

The insurance coverage included with your Hertz rental in Gaspé depends on the rate plan you selected at booking. It is important to review your confirmation carefully before arriving at the counter.

In Canada, provincial law requires every rental vehicle to carry third-party liability insurance by default. This statutory liability coverage is included when you rent through Hola Car Rentals in Gaspé, though you can purchase higher supplemental liability limits if needed.

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) reduces your financial liability for damage to the Hertz vehicle itself. Key points to understand:

• CDW and LDW cover damage to the rental car from a collision, theft, or vandalism, subject to any applicable deductible
• CDW and LDW do not cover third-party injuries or property damage to others. That is handled by liability coverage
• Excluded items often include tires, undercarriage, roof, and keys unless a specific add-on is purchased
• Coverage applies only to drivers named on the rental agreement

Review your Hertz rental agreement in Gaspé at pickup to confirm exactly which coverages are active and what deductible, if any, applies to your plan.

Yes, most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, which can be valuable if you experience a medical emergency or other covered incident while driving your Hertz rental in the remote areas around Gaspé and the Gaspe Peninsula.

The Gaspe Peninsula is a particularly isolated region, and access to services can be limited on Route 132 and surrounding roads. The travel assistance benefit covers:

• Medical coverage for up to 5 passengers for accidents and non-pre-existing illnesses
• Legal assistance in case of an accident
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

If you need assistance while traveling in or around Gaspé, contact Terrawind 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Provide your full name, your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number, your location, and a description of the situation. Follow the coordinator's instructions before incurring expenses, as some reimbursements require prior authorization.

Important: this travel assistance benefit applies only to non-North American customers. Canadian and US residents do not qualify for this coverage. It also does not cover damage to the Hertz vehicle itself, which is handled by CDW or LDW.

Hertz rentals in Gaspé follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy by default. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

Steps to follow for a smooth fuel return in Gaspé:

• At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the Hertz agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the rental agreement
• Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge
• Ask the agent about the nearest fuel station to the Hertz return location in Gaspé, or use a navigation app to find one close to the drop-off point
• Refuel within approximately 15 km of the return location so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address

If you return the Hertz vehicle in Gaspé with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus a refueling service fee. For after-hours returns, leave the receipt in the key envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge as evidence.

Gaspé Airport (YGP) is a small regional airport, and the Hertz counter is located on-site. Because YGP is a compact facility, the rental counter area is typically easy to reach from the arrivals area without a shuttle or long walk.

To locate the Hertz desk at Gaspé Airport:

• Follow the car rental signs inside the terminal after collecting your baggage
• If the counter is unstaffed on arrival, check your booking confirmation for a contact number or after-hours instructions provided by Hertz
• Counter hours at smaller airports like YGP may be limited and tied to flight schedules, so confirm operating hours in advance through the Hertz location finder

Specific counter addresses, floor numbers, and after-hours key drop details for the Hertz location at Gaspé Airport are not published in general sources. For the most accurate and current pickup instructions, review your booking confirmation or contact Hertz directly before your arrival in Gaspé. Arriving with extra time is advisable, particularly if your flight lands outside standard business hours.

If your flight to Gaspé is delayed, Hertz will generally hold your reservation for up to 24 hours from the original scheduled pickup time, as long as you arrive during the counter's operating hours.

• If the delay is less than 24 hours, your booking should still be honored. Make sure you arrive while the Hertz counter at Gaspé Airport is open, as smaller regional counters may have limited hours tied to flight schedules
• If the delay is greater than 24 hours, contact Hola Car Rentals support as soon as possible via WhatsApp at +1 (786) 999-8312 or by email at [email protected]. Changes in this situation are not guaranteed but the team will assist where possible
• If you arrive after the Hertz counter in Gaspé has closed for the day, check your booking confirmation for any after-hours instructions or contact details provided for the location

It is a good idea to note the Hertz counter hours for Gaspé before you travel, since YGP is a small regional airport and staffing may be limited outside of scheduled flight arrivals. Arriving during counter hours is the safest way to ensure a smooth pickup.

Yes, winter tires are mandatory in Quebec by law from December 1 to March 15, and this applies to all vehicles including your Hertz rental in Gaspé.

Gaspé is located on the remote Gaspe Peninsula, where winter conditions are particularly demanding. Snow, ice, and mountain terrain are common throughout the winter months, and the coastal Route 132 and hilly streets within Gaspé itself can be especially challenging without proper tires.

• Hertz, as a licensed rental operator in Quebec, is required to equip vehicles with winter tires during the mandatory period. You do not need to request this separately
• Outside the mandatory window, tires may be all-season. If you are traveling in shoulder months such as November or late March, confirm tire type with Hertz at the counter in Gaspé
• Driving on hilly or one-way streets in Gaspé during winter requires extra caution, particularly on routes like Wayman Street where downhill traffic is restricted to aid snow removal

Always drive at reduced speeds on icy or snow-covered roads and allow extra distance for braking. If you are unfamiliar with winter driving conditions, take additional care when navigating your Hertz rental through Gaspé and the surrounding peninsula roads.
