Choosing a car and optional extras in Renting a car
You need to choose a car to meet your needs.
If you can't drive a manual (stick-shift) check that your car will be automatic.
Check there is room for all the passengers and luggage you will be carrying. The car may not be the exact model you booked, and the boot space may vary.
If you are travelling on unsurfaced/gravel roads you may want to consider a car with high road clearance or 4-wheel drive.
You can usually hire a GPS with the car. Having a GPS when driving in a new city can save considerable amount of time until you get your bearings. Check the price carefully, as GPS rental for a week can sometimes cost as much as a new GPS.
Rental car companies often rent child seats of booster seats. If you are flying with a young child, sometimes you can take your seat on the plane to save the cost of this hire. Make sure the seat you have will attach to the car you are hiring and complies with the relevant standards.
