A rented car abroad – Advantages: comfort, transportation from one place to another, freedom to travel independently, the option to stop at any time of the day, the option to reach places where public transportation doesn’t, cheaper (sometimes) than organized trip and public transportation. The profitability of renting a car rises when the number of passengers rises.
It’s very recommended (yet not mandatory) to work with international rental cars companies because they can solve any problem around the clock and they have a large variety of new cars. The only disadvantage is the high price. The price in local companies is quite cheap, but their downsize is that their service is not always available, so you’ll need to check if the renting point is open at the time and day reserved.
