Car Rental-What You Need to Know about Renting a Car

Cars offer a freedom not found in any other form of travel. You can take your luggage, your itinerary and ideas and do exactly what you want when you want to do it. You can stay as long as you want, have no specific schedule (unless self-imposed) and truly get to know the locals and area. Traveling by car lets you literally "stop and smell the roses.”

On many of your vacations, you may want or need to rent a car because the area you are visiting is best seen by the freedom of driving. Sounds simple doesn’t it? Well, it is and it isn’t. I wrote Car Rental-What You Need to Know about Renting a Car to help you know the intricacies of renting a car and discuss various available options, insurances, ways to book, and other information needed to have an excellent car rental experience. Most of the information in the book does not apply if you drive your own car, but you may find ideas that may save you time and money even if you take your car on vacation.

All travelers are not suited for rental car, but those that are generally:

·     Like adventure, exploring, and do not mind getting lost.

·     Want to travel by themselves or with a limited number of people.

·     Find spending time in less-visited areas of the world exciting.

·     Do not like rigid schedules where every minute of the day is planned.

·     Enjoy being able to stop to enjoy lunch on the banks of a river or lake, talk to the

      local people, and contemplate while watching the sunset from a deserted beach.

If any of the above qualifiers appeal to you, then traveling by car just might be the perfect vacation option.

This book covers renting, leasing, buying a car, and private driver and gives suggestions which option is best for your current trip. It also covers insurances you should seriously consider, problems that can occur, renting from large or small car companies, car pick-up and drop-off options, types of cars, fabulous driving routes worldwide, and many other topics to help ensure you have a great driving vacation.

Traveling by car can provide some of the most spectacular experiences you can have. It is important that you determine if this option will be part of your travel plans prior to making any air or land reservations in order to get the best price.
