The Advantages of Renting a Car in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – Renting a car in Puerto Vallarta not only significantly enhances your travel experience by allowing you to discover this beautiful coastal city and its surroundings at your own pace, but it’s also a great way to explore different areas before investing in real estate.

The added freedom from having a vehicle allows you to explore the stunning beaches, vibrant culture, and the beauty of our region. But additionally, it can provide you with easy ability to visit all the different neighborhoods and communities found around the Bay, to find the location that is the perfect place for your dream vacation home in Mexico.

When renting a car in Puerto Vallarta, you’ll find that there are various rental agencies available. Major international companies, as well as local providers, offer a range of vehicles to fit different needs and budgets. It is a good idea to consider booking well in advance, either online or using a travel agency, to help ensure you get the best rates and make sure there is a vehicle of your preference available.

One important thing to do, before finalizing your rental, is to carefully check the terms and conditions on your rental contract, including insurance coverage, mileage limits, and fuel policies. Third party liability insurance is mandatory when renting a car in Mexico and, in general, this will not be covered by your credit card policy, so it is an important factor to research in advance. It’s also wise to ensure that you have collision insurance included as part of your rental, as well.

A valid USA or Canadian driver’s license is required, as is a credit card, and you must be 25 years of age or older to rent a car in Puerto Vallarta. Navigating the local area is relatively straightforward with clear signage, but it is a good idea to familiarize yourself with local traffic laws in advance with some online research. Defensive driving and increased awareness of your surroundings, without distractions like cell phones, are the best ways to ensure that you are driving safely.

With a little research and preparedness, renting a car can be an easy way to explore different areas around Puerto Vallarta for real estate investment. Or, easier still, contact your Tropicasa agent for a private tour of different areas and home styles that may suit you, as you begin your real estate journey in Mexico.
