Downtown Santo Domingo is full of fun adventures, but don't restrict yourself to just the one place. Pick up a set of wheels and hit the open road to explore the wider area. Here are some places to consider:

• You'll discover Playa Dorada and lots more intriguing sights in Puerto Plata. From Downtown Santo Domingo, it's around 100 miles away.
• Why not see all that's on offer in Punta Cana too? Unmissable sights in this vibrant city include Bavaro Beach. Punta Cana is 100 miles from Downtown Santo Domingo.

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Dominican Republic, then you'll likely need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your current license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note for international car rentals are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most 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 available to rent.
• Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
