$43 Car Rental Santa Cruz

Santa Cruz is full of surprises, but don't limit yourself to only one place. Pick up a set of wheels and hit the road to discover what else awaits in the wider area. Here are some ideas:

• You'll find Amantikir Park and countless other intriguing sights in Campos do Jordão. From Santa Cruz, it's roughly 100 miles away.
• Your next pit stop? Consider Campinas, which is around 70 miles away. Hopi Hari Theme Park is one local highlight you really shouldn't miss.
• Spend time in the outdoors and breathe in some fresh air at Botanical Garden Grove. You'll find it roughly 180 miles from Santa Cruz.

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Brazil, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. Please also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your current license your passport and other forms of identification 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 many countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might 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 rules and regulations before you drive away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental vehicle.
