Choosing right car hire company for your trip

[Avion Bell]

Travelling is an experience that makes people wiser, more open and usually more tolerant. There are various types of transportation that you can choose for your journey. For long distance trips usually there are not a lot options – you can go by plane which is fast and comfortable but also you can cross Atlantic by ship or travel through Siberia by its famous train. However, both of last options are obviously for people that have a lot of time, patience and that they like new challenges. What about trips that are shorter while talking about kilometers? What is the best option to travel? What is the best mean of transportation?

Of course, everything depends on the type of the trip that you want to do and especially on the region or the country that you want to visit. More and more people decide to do so called ¨road trips¨. Why the popularity of this kind of trips is growing? First of all, it is really attractive way of travelling. You are more flexible because you can stop almost everywhere you want to, at the time that you want to, you are not depended on anyone. Moreover, you have much more possibility to sightseen, visit, get knowledge, watch, observe and so on, and so on. While travelling by plane, you miss a lot of landscapes (ok, generally views from the air are also breathtaking but you cannot stop and enjoy them for a little longer). So the best option would be – just go by plane to another part of the world and then hire a car and travel through the region that we are interested in. Does it seem simple?

It is simple. However, it is not very simple to select the best car company for your trip. Why? Very often people do not read carefully terms and conditions or the contracts that companies offer. Suddenly, your trip that you have been dreaming about for a long time, can change to the worst nightmare when you realize all additional charges that you must pay. How to avoid it? First of all, you should be really aware of conditions that are proposed by the company. Read carefully! Secondly, check the insurance that they offer you and what happen in case of any type of accident. Thirdly, if you want to travel abroad, you must check if it is allowed; many car hire companies do not allow to go abroad. And finally, when you already are at the point of hiring, check very well the condition of the car.

There are a lot of various car hire companies. The most well-known are for sure Hertz www.hertz.com or Alamo www.alamo.com. There are world-wide companies but in the same time you must be sure that they do not offer car rental. You can always look for some rentals that are more local, small companies which need to offer lower prices in order to have revenues.
