Frequently asked questions about car hire tours

A hire car in Central America costs around 30 to 80 EUR per day, depending on the country, season and vehicle type. Prices can rise significantly during peak tourist periods and for larger vehicles such as jeeps or vans. Additional costs for insurance, border crossings or one-way hire should also be factored in.

An international driving licence is not required by law for many countries such as Mexico, Cuba and Costa Rica if you have a valid EU driving licence. Nevertheless, it is recommended for safety reasons, especially in the event of police checks or in the event of an accident. Important: It is only valid together with the national driving licence.

It is advisable to book a hire car abroad early, especially if you are travelling during peak times or to popular destinations. Booking early can secure you better prices and a wider choice of vehicles.

This depends on the guidelines of the car hire provider. In many cases, it is not permitted to take the hire car to other countries. You should therefore check the conditions of your provider in advance and clarify any border crossing fees and insurance requirements.
