Car Rentals from Eilat

I have from about 8:00 am on Dec. 6th to 5:00 am on Dec. 8th and was thinking about renting a car to go to the Dead Sea, stay overnight in Jerusalem and do a tour there and then drive home. I will be arriving and leaving on a cruise ship.

I tried several car rental sites but it says that there are no cars available from 9:00 am on Dec. 6th Sunday to 9:00 pm on Dec. 8th. Does anyone have any experience with this?

my guess is that it is because the rental offices close at 18:00...

I had no problem getting a quote from rentalcar.com for a car when I set the return time to 17:30...

Jerusalem in a day !!!! quite a long drive too. The journey is quite long from Eilat. Not sure what your itinerary is but you don't have that much time.

Good to stay overnight, so you can get the feel of Jerusalem & walk around in the evening.

It's a good idea to break the journey at the Dead Sea as except for the experience, if you're not climbing Massada, there's not much to do there.

As previously suggested, maybe change the return time of the rental.
