Right after checking into your Rio de Janeiro penthouse flat rental, you may rent a vehicle for touring around which could be conveniently completed in Copacabana. There are several rental companies on Avenida Isabel which happens to be near to the Leme division of Copacabana. If you are staying in Ipanema, you will have to get to the rental car office by bus or cab. Additionally you can rent a vehicle at the airport before you go to your flat rental.

The Brazilian rental car business Localiza, rents cars within the airport as well as in Copacabana as does Hertz and some other businesses. You may reserve a car on the internet just before your arrival or compare prices and book the rental when you arrive.

Localiza and several of the other agencies require that they scan the photo page of your passport and enter it into their computer system where by it may remain indefinetely.

The day-to-day rental rate will include liability insurance protection although not physical damage coverage for the vehicle itself. Collision Damage Waiver is often high-priced in Brazil as it is in north america so it's best if you check with your credit card provider to check if by using their bank card to rent an automobile will immediately provide you with the insurance coverage.
