Car Rentals in Galveston, USA

Everyone knows that Galveston is one of the best destinations in Texas. But you'll also find countless other awesome places to explore when you reserve a set of wheels and hit the open road. Here are some top tips to get your escape off to a great start:

• Boasting sights and activities galore, Houston is around 45 miles from Galveston. First stop on the list? Follow the signs to Johnson Space Centre - NASA, one of the city's biggest highlights.
• Lake Charles, around 110 miles away, also promises a good time. Need some sightseeing inspiration? Golden Nugget won't disappoint.

If you don't have a license from the U.S, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you'll also need to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hired cars in the U.S. Are:

• Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the hire car company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hired vehicle.
