Car Rental Praia Mercedes

Praia Mercedes has plenty to keep you on the move, but don't limit yourself to just one place. Grab a set of wheels and head off to see what else awaits in the surrounding region. Here are a few ideas:

• Head to Sao Paulo for a fantastic sightseeing adventure. Around 85 miles from Praia Mercedes, it has loads of cool attractions like Paulista Museum.
• Approximately 70 miles away, Campos do Jordão is also a hit with travelers. Make time to check out Amantikir Park while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love staying a while in this city.
• Get into the great outdoors and breathe in some fresh air at Christ the Redeemer. It's about 150 miles from Praia Mercedes.

If you don't have a driver's license issued in Brazil, 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 an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some other requirements to rent a car internationally are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, 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: Be sure to read the fine print before sliding behind the wheel. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or off road with a rental vehicle.
