$46 Car Rental Palmar

Palmar has plenty to keep you on the move, but don't limit yourself to one place. Arrange a set of wheels and hit the road to see what's in the surrounding region. These are some great options:

• Make tracks to Quevedo for an excellent sightseeing experience. About 110 miles from Palmar, it has loads of great attractions such as Quevedo Shopping Center.
• Your next pit stop? Consider Machala, which is around 100 miles away. Machala Cathedral is one local draw card you shouldn't miss.
• Get out into the outdoors and breathe in some fresh air at El Panecillo. You'll find it roughly 200 miles from Palmar.

If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Ecuador, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. You should also be aware that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note for international car rentals are:

• Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with your rental car.
