São José is full of fun adventures, but don't limit yourself to just one place. Arrange a set of wheels and head off to explore the surrounding region. Here are some great options we've come up with:

• Bento Goncalves is 55 miles from São José. Popular attractions like Casa Valduga Winery should be at the top of your list here.

If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Brazil, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. Also consider that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older 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 cars you can rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
