Question 4

What kind of rental car should I get for Montevideo?

Accepted Answer

Some people find dodging traffic in big cities a little tricky. But in a small ride like an economy or compact car, those bustling Montevideo streets will be a walk in the park. Prefer to spend your time discovering the surrounding sandy shores? Look up our selection of mid-size and full-size SUVs. With loads of room and power under the hood, these bigger cars will make those long, leisurely drives even more memorable. Ticking off all the attractions and activities that Montevideo is famous for has never been easier with your own wheels.

Question 5

Should I get a luxury rental car in Montevideo?

Accepted Answer

You'll be glad to hear that there's a huge range of both high-end and economy rental vehicles on offer in Montevideo. What you end up opting for depends on your budget and what you plan to do. Prestige vehicles often spare no expense when it comes to comfort and class. If you feel like splashing out, why not book a high-end SUV, or perhaps a slick mid-sized vehicle? On the other hand, if you're just after a set of wheels to get you from A to B as cheaply as possible, stick with an economy vehicle (or something else that won't blow your budget).

Question 6

Is it difficult to park in Montevideo?

Accepted Answer

You should be able to find a car space in Montevideo without much hassle. Of course, you'll have to be mindful of the signage. Parking in a no-standing zone or leaving your vehicle longer than the allocated time could end in a fine.
